Reducing Overwhelm with Simple, Curious, Creative Leadership – with Carla Maroussas

Carla Maroussas joins me today to explore overwhelm, and the all-important question – how do we reduce it?

In a world where overwhelm feels normal, where many of us feel trapped with the only option being to push through, this is an important conversation.

We explore:

the feeling of overwhelm that produces a real desire of wanting to retreat into a bubble
the pressure on leaders and managers to be seen to cope
the need to align our lived experience with our values
how emotional support from managers, in the form of quality conversations, improves mental wellbeing
what active listening really means
our thoughts about goals!

This episode is full of practical strategies to create more space and reduce overwhelm.

How are you moving closer towards the experience that feels good for you on a daily basis?

How are you supporting your team to reduce emotional arousal so that they can invest their mental energy on being productive?
