In this episode of the Reframe Podcast, Carlos and Hector explore the powerful theme of managing stress wisely—drawing on insights from Dr. Robyn Hanley-Dafoe, a renowned expert in stress and resiliency, and integrating their own perspectives on how to reframe stress as a signal, not a stop sign.
We discuss practical mindsets and tools for navigating high-pressure environments, especially relevant to accountants and service professionals balancing client work, deadlines, and decision-making fatigue.
The conversation also dives into a live framestorm around the distinction between Scope vs. Scopeless Work—a concept that reveals how ambiguity can either paralyze or empower us, depending on how we interpret the risk-reward dynamics. Whether you’re a firm owner, freelancer, or collaborator inside a bigger team, this section will shift how you approach undefined work.
We wrap with some exciting updates on upcoming Reframe events in 2025, including new cities, new partners, and some fresh programming ideas we can’t wait to share.
