  • Episode 55 Presence in life & leadership series: Managing our energy

Many people believe they’re struggling because they don’t have enough time. But what if the real issue is energy?

In this third episode of the presence in life and leadership series, Tom reflects on how caring too much, over-responsibility, and fear of dropping the ball can quietly push us toward burnout. Rather than doing more, this episode invites a shift in focus from managing time to managing energy.

You’ll be guided through a simple Life Lab experiment to help you become more aware of what drains your energy, what restores it, and how to recover well so you can return with clarity and presence.

Life Lab Experiment:
Each evening this week, pause and ask yourself:

  • What gave me energy today?
  • What drained me?
  • What do I need to do to recover before tomorrow?

Because real impact comes less from doing more and more from wasting less energy.
