Episode 48 Energy series: Boundaries create energy
In this episode of Tom's Life Lab, Tom explores the hidden cost of being “always on” and why constant availability is quietly draining our energy, focus, and mood.
As part of the energy series, he reflects on how easy it is to slip into checking messages, only to find work bleeding into evenings, sleep, and recovery time. What feels productive in the moment often shows up later as poor focus, low energy, and burnout.
This episode is a reminder that boundaries aren’t about shutting people out, they’re about protecting your ability to show up well. Real energy is restored when we create space to switch off.
🎧 Listen now and try this week’s Life Lab experiment:
Notice when you feel the urge to follow a distraction. Track what triggers it, and observe what happens to your energy when you resist.
