Are you feeling the pressure to end the year on a high note, pushing yourself to the brink just because it's Q4? You're not alone—and I get it. But here's the thing: this frantic push to "finish strong" often leads to burnout, stress, and exhaustion. In this episode of Work Life Harmony, I’m breaking down why that year-end messaging isn't doing us any favors and how you can let go of it for good.

In this episode I cover: 

• The negative impact of “end the year strong” messaging and why it leads to burnout.
• How to maintain a steady state year-round with effective annual and quarterly planning.
• Strategies for avoiding the Q4 rush and prioritizing well-being during the holiday season.
• Why the “new year, new you” mindset sets people up for failure and how to break free from it.
• The importance of guilt-free rest and relaxation through mindful time management.
