In this conversation, Erin discusses the importance of identifying and engaging in energizing and high-impact work, which she refers to as 'refueling.' She emphasizes that this work is unique to each individual and is essential for creativity, clarity, and emotional fulfillment.

Today on Tactical Empathy:

• Energy leaks—tasks that drain you without impact—are often where burnout hides.
• Discomfort isn’t always a red flag; sometimes it’s the signal that growth is happening.
• You don’t need to earn your rest or explain why ease matters.
• You lead you first—before the team, the metrics, or the outcomes.
• “Good enough” is sometimes exactly what’s needed to move forward.
• Naming and honouring your needs is a powerful act of leadership.
