In this episode of The Lei’d Back Life, I’m joined by Matt Burke to talk about using KPIs as a tool for better problem solving in both business and real life.
Most people think KPIs are just numbers for spreadsheets. Matt shows how they can actually become clarity tools. When you track the right data, you stop guessing and start making decisions that move the needle in a meaningful way.
We get into:
✅ How to identify which metrics actually matter
✅ Why tracking less data can create more clarity
✅ How KPIs help reduce stress and emotional decision making
✅ Using simple measurement to invest your time, money, and energy more intentionally
✅ Applying the same approach to relationships, health, and personal life design
If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed by too many priorities or stuck solving the same problems again and again, this conversation will help you focus on what actually matters.
