You don’t have to burn out to succeed. Here’s how slowing down, reflecting, and managing your energy can help you thrive without losing yourself. In this episode, Chabidaye discusses: Balancing drive with rest Separating identity from work Managing energy with awareness Growing through guidance and reflection Key Takeaways: High achievers often risk burnout when ambition goes unchecked. Sustainable performance requires managing energy intentionally and allowing space for rest, recovery, and reflection. True success means valuing who you are beyond what you do. Building a balanced life with time for wellness, hobbies, and relationships strengthens both fulfillment and performance. Tracking daily energy highs and lows helps optimize focus and productivity. Protecting personal time and aligning tasks with energy peaks fosters efficiency and well-being. Coaching and self-reflection help clarify priorities and sustain motivation.

In this episode, Chabidaye discusses: Leading with emotional intelligence Creating connection through presence Building trust through genuine care Growing through self-awareness and reflection Key Takeaways: Emotional intelligence is not a soft skill but a strategic advantage that shapes effective leadership. Leaders who understand emotions—both theirs and others’—build stronger, more resilient teams. Leadership influence grows from trust and emotional connection, not authority. A leader’s energy and attitude set the tone for every meeting, shaping how people feel and perform. When leaders take time to connect, appreciate, and listen, they inspire loyalty and collaboration. Genuine relationships turn teams into allies working toward a shared purpose. Emotional intelligence is developed through honest reflection and feedback. By staying aware of their impact, leaders create environments where people thrive and feel valued. "Emotional intelligence isn't a soft skill. It's the edge that separates good leaders from the unforgettable ones." — Chabidaye Jaglal Ramnath Apply now at https://www.leadandlift.com/coaching and take the next step to grow your emotional intelligence and leadership impact.

In this episode, Chabidaye discusses: Understanding procrastination as an emotional issue Applying the ACT framework to move forward Finding clarity through imperfect action Rebuilding confidence by doing one small thing Key Takeaways: Procrastination isn’t caused by laziness or lack of drive. It often stems from avoiding uncomfortable feelings tied to fear, doubt, or overwhelm. Recognizing this helps shift from guilt to growth. Awareness, Choice, and Tiny Actions (ACT) form the path to change. Know what you’re avoiding, choose what truly matters, and start with one small, imperfect step. Progress begins when you act. Waiting for the perfect moment only feeds hesitation. Clarity grows when you take consistent steps, learning and adjusting as you go. Action reveals what waiting cannot. Procrastination erodes self-belief, but even a single step restores it. Choose one task you’ve been putting off, take action today, and celebrate the momentum it creates. "Leaders, they don’t wait for the perfect moment—they go out and they create it." — Chabidaye Jaglal Ramnath CONNECT WITH CHABIDAYE: Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/chabidaye.ramnath.3 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/chabidaye/ Website: https://leadandlift.com/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/chabidayejaglalramnath/ Show notes by Podcastologist: Justine Talla Audio production by Turnkey Podcast Productions.

In this episode, Chabidaye discusses: Action over perfection Decide with intention Confidence is built, not found Leadership requires a bold presence Key Takeaways: Progress comes from movement, not waiting for the “perfect” moment. Imperfect action beats polished hesitation every time. Indecision drains momentum. Strong leaders make conscious choices, understanding that not deciding is, in itself, a decision. Consistency breeds belief. Confidence grows through repeated effort, not through external validation or passive preparation. True leadership means showing up, even in fear. Leading isn’t about feeling ready—it’s about choosing to rise and move forward. "Done is better than perfect.

Every bold step you take outside your comfort zone is a rep for your confidence muscle. Every small commitment you keep is a deposit into your confidence account—proof to yourself that you can be trusted. How you show up—your posture, your tone, your presence—shapes how others see you and how you see yourself. You don’t wait to feel confident; you create it by showing up consistently, even when it’s hard. "You are the CEO of your energy.

In this episode, Chabidaye discuss: The myth of managing time Energy management is critical Setting boundaries Indicators of stress Key Takeaways: Stress isn't about managing time, but about emotional weight and self-imposed pressure. Remember that your worth is not tied to productivity Humans have natural energy rhythms, unlike machines. Listen to your body's energy cycles. Align work with peak energy levels instead of rigid time blocking. Stress comes from a lack of boundaries, not a lack of time. Learn to say no and protect your energy. Boundaries are bridges to protect your well-being, not selfish acts. Check your energy levels when feeling stressed. Identify where you're "leaking energy" in your day. Common energy drains include checking emails constantly, people pleasing, saying yes when you mean no, and feeling guilty during rest. "Time management is only surface level... what we need to focus on is below the surface, the real iceberg, which is the expectations, the self-judgment, and the pressure beneath it all." —  Chabidaye Jaglal Ramnath Download the FREE ebook: The #1 Reason You’re Stressed and What to Do About It: https://www.leadandlift.com/stress Inside, you’ll discover six simple, science-backed steps to regain balance, calm your mind, and boost your energy—without having to cancel your calendar.

In this episode, Chabidaye discuss: Stress is a signal, not a status symbol Check your inner expectations Progress over perfection Let go to move forward Key Takeaways: If you're feeling overwhelmed, it's not because you're weak; it's because something needs care. Pay attention to what your stress is trying to tell you. It's not always the to-do list that drains you, it’s the pressure you put on yourself. Ask: What am I expecting of myself that no one else is? You don’t need perfect conditions to move forward. The real win is in starting, learning, and growing as you go. Success isn’t about doing more, it’s about releasing what’s weighing you down.

In this episode, Chabidaye discuss: Confidence growth comes from within Factors that hold women entrepreneurs back How to build confidence The power of creating your own validation Key Takeaways: Confidence is a skill, not a fixed trait. It can be developed through action and practice, and is based on your belief in your own abilities and self-worth, not external validation. Women entrepreneurs often make the mistake of waiting for permission from others (clients, mentors, family) before taking action, which holds them back from success. Action builds confidence. Taking bold steps, even when you don't feel completely ready, helps you grow and develop self-assurance. The more you do something, the more confident you become. Create your own validation through a "confidence wins journal" by documenting your achievements, risks taken, and challenges overcome. This helps train your brain to recognize your own power and capabilities. "The only validation you need is the results you create, not other people's opinion." —  Chabidaye Jaglal Ramnath CONNECT WITH CHABIDAYE: Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/chabidaye.ramnath.3 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/chabidaye/ Website: https://leadandlift.com/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/chabidayejaglalramnath/ Show notes by Podcastologist: Justine Talla Audio production by Turnkey Podcast Productions.

In this episode, Chabidaye discuss: Pursuing goals without neglecting relationships  Don’t treat relationships like projects The key to meaningful relationships Vulnerability and authenticity strengthen connections with loved ones Key Takeaways: High achievers often neglect quality time and emotional connection in their relationships due to a focus on professional goals. Treating relationships like a project rather than nurturing them can lead to a transactional approach. The book "Seven Principles for Making Marriage Work" is recommended to help reconnect with a partner. Scheduling emotional check-ins and being present at the moment are important for maintaining meaningful relationships. Practicing emotional vulnerability and authenticity, rather than projecting strength and control, can help build deeper connections with loved ones. "Relationships are not checklists of things to complete. They're more like a garden that requires nurturing. You gotta go pull the weeds out, prune the trees, water it, fertilize it. You gotta spend time in the garden if you want to get fruits and flowers." —  Chabidaye Jaglal Ramnath CONNECT WITH CHABIDAYE: Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/chabidaye.ramnath.3 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/chabidaye/ Website: https://leadandlift.com/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/chabidayejaglalramnath/ Show notes by Podcastologist: Justine Talla Audio production by Turnkey Podcast Productions.

In this episode, Chabidaye discuss: Strengthening your connection Positive balance in your relationship bank account How the mirror effect works Taking intentional steps to reconnect and strengthen relationships Key Takeaways: Diagnose and actively reconnect with important people when you feel the relationship connection weakening, similar to a poor Wi-Fi signal. Spend quality time and genuinely listen to them. Maintain a positive balance in your emotional "relationship bank account" by making daily deposits through expressions of gratitude, texts, and quality time. This prevents the account from becoming overdrawn. The energy and positivity you bring into a relationship can have a "mirror effect", causing others to reflect that same energy back. Showing up with vibrant energy can shift the dynamics. Small, intentional steps to reconnect and strengthen important relationships can make your life richer and more meaningful. Don't wait for the perfect time, take action now.

In this episode, Chabidaye discuss: Relationships are foundational Be present, not just available Quality is better than quantity Scheduling time with your loved ones Key Takeaways: Relationships are a foundational pillar of high performance, alongside career success and maintaining well-being. Neglecting relationships can lead to feelings of emptiness and unhappiness. Being truly present, not just available, is crucial for building meaningful connections. This involves giving someone your undivided attention, free from distractions. Quality of interactions matters more than quantity when it comes to nurturing relationships. Small, consistent habits like expressing appreciation can help make meaningful deposits into your "emotional bank account." Scheduling time with loved ones, just as you would schedule work or other priorities, helps ensure relationships are prioritized and not overlooked amidst a busy schedule.

In this episode, Chabidaye discuss: Prioritizing the tasks with the highest impact Categorizing your tasks through the 4D system Manage your energy, not your time Eliminating unrealistic expectations Key Takeaways: Focus on the one most impactful task each day. Identify the "needle mover" that will have the biggest domino effect on your other tasks. Don't get bogged down in trying to multitask - prioritize this one key task and tackle it first before moving on to other items. Use the 4D system to categorize your tasks - do, delegate, delay, or delete. This helps you reduce decision fatigue and focus your energy on the essential tasks you need to personally complete. Don't be afraid to ask for help from others to delegate certain items. Manage your energy levels, not just your time. Pay attention to when you have high energy versus low energy periods during the day. Schedule your most important, cognitively-demanding work for your high energy times to maximize productivity and avoid burnout. Eliminate "shoulds" and unrealistic expectations. Let go of outdated beliefs or societal pressures that are weighing you down. Focus on aligning your tasks and goals with your true values and priorities. Celebrate small wins along the way rather than waiting for the big goal to be achieved. "It's not about doing more, but it's about doing what matters with intention. So take action on the steps that I shared with you today, and watch how small, focused efforts are going to lead you to big wins." — Chabidaye Jaglal Ramnath
