Episode summary:

Intro

  • Vandghie announces a different Q&A style episode focusing on perimenopause and its impact on business.
  • Her guest, Jan Ditchfield, a business strategist, have received questions from her clients who are women in business and are asking these questions to Vandghie.
  • Jan has experienced health challenges and become an advocate for health as part of a business strategy.

    • Importance of Health in Business

    • Vandghie emphasizes that health and business strategy are interconnected.
  • Excellent business strategy and support are needed, but so is a health strategy.

    • Question 1: Burnout vs. Rough Patch

    • Rebecca asks how to distinguish between burnout and a rough patch in business.
  • Burnout is complete mental, physical, and emotional exhaustion, leading to an inability to function normally.
  • It's a culmination of a process, not a sudden event.
  • Rough patches are common, but not addressing them can lead to burnout.
  • It's crucial to be mindful of your body's signals and implement a wellness plan to prevent burnout.

    • Question 2: Stress and Burnout

    • Jennifer asks about stress and its role in burnout, along with how to manage it.
  • Stress is a major contributor to burnout, especially when you lack tools and support to manage it.
  • Healthy stress can be motivating, but stress without a recovery plan leads to burnout.
  • Stress can be physiological (not eating, sleeping, or exercising enough) or emotional (worrying).

    • Conclusion

    • Vandghie emphasizes the importance of managing both physiological and emotional stress.
  • Implementing systems and processes reduces mental stress.
  • Listeners are encouraged to tune in next week for the full interview with Jan Ditchfield.
