Where is your energy leaking as a wellness business owner? This deceptively simple question opens a profound conversation between Anna and Kendall about the hidden drains that pull leaders toward burnout, often without them realizing it's happening.

Both hosts trace their evolution from doing everything—answering phones, cleaning bathrooms, managing payroll—to strategic delegation that preserves their energy for high-level leadership. "There will never not be a list," Kendall observes about the endless nature of business ownership, highlighting why intentional boundaries become essential for survival.

The conversation reveals how energy management changes as businesses grow. Anna shares her recent experience working seven days a week while expanding into massage services, while Kendall discusses the ongoing challenge of hiring cycles that inevitably disrupt work-life balance.

"We use more energy putting off the task than we would just completing the task in the moment," Kendall explains, introducing practical strategies like Anna's quarterly "admin weeks" for tackling procrastination and administrative tasks that typically drain energy through avoidance.

The episode takes an inspiring turn when Kendall shares her recent flight lesson experience, demonstrating how learning new skills serves dual purposes: preventing energy leakage through intentional focus while potentially reducing dementia risk through cognitive challenge.

This conversation offers invaluable guidance for wellness practitioners struggling with burnout prevention, showing how strategic self-care and purposeful boundary-setting create sustainable leadership practices that benefit both personal well-being and professional effectiveness.
