Welcome to the Do More by Doing Less podcast with Charles Alexander, the show for Small Business Owners, Start Ups, and Busy Folks!

This is not another productivity, hustle, and grind podcast.

I literally want you to do less.

Many of us are overwhelmed, frustrated, and need a break.

The good news is that we can accomplish much more than now.

Once we focus on the vital few, and prioritize things that make our lives and the lives of people around us better, we can “do more by doing less”.

This podcast is funny, simple, and has real-world stories.

The episodes alternate between my solo podcasts and guest podcasts.

In the solo episodes I share stories and frameworks from my experience in coaching small business owners and my own entrepreneurship endeavors. Oh, and any other story that can get a laugh while sticking to the theme of the podcast😊

In the guest podcasts, I will bring on other entrepreneurs who will share their expertise and discuss their own methods for doing more by doing less.

That’s it.

Subscribe now so you don’t miss an episode and have fun listening while you drive, do the dishes, or mow the lawn!

Navigating Burnout: A Deep Dive with Expert Cait Donovan

Are you ready to discover how to tackle burnout and foster wellness in your professional and personal life?

Summary:

In today’s episode, I had the privilege of chatting with Cait Donovan, a leading voice on burnout recovery and prevention. We delved into her journey through burnout despite a career in Chinese medicine—a field grounded in balance and healing. Cait shared insights from her own experiences and discussed her unique approach to managing and preventing burnout by focusing on internal boundaries and acknowledging personal resentment.

Key Takeaways:

Recognizing your resentment can be the first step in setting healthy boundaries and recovering from burnout.
Setting internal boundaries is crucial; you can't set external boundaries effectively without them.
Resentment often highlights where we're overextending ourselves or where our efforts are not genuinely valued.
Burnout isn't just about being tired; it's a deep misalignment between our actions and our needs. Let's apply what we've learned and take control of our wellness and productivity.
