Hey there, lovely listeners! In this episode, we dive into the unique challenges of being a woman in business. We discuss how the cognitive load impacts us differently compared to men and why it's not just about being busy, but avoiding burnout. I share striking statistics on women's mental loads at home, caregiving, and the business world, highlighting how these influence decision fatigue, undervaluing time, and saying yes too often. We talk about practical strategies for delegation, setting boundaries, and lowering domestic standards. Remember, it's not about perfection but surviving and thriving in a system stacked against us. Your business can come first, it's okay to say no and prioritise yourself!

This week, I'm joined by Kate Merryweather, LinkedIn coach extraordinaire.
