Episode Summary:

If you've ever worked in the corporate world or as an entrepreneur, you know that pushing, forcing, hustling, and grinding has been the traditional model to paving a path to a successful career.

My guest on this episode, Leslie Gaudet, a Self-Care Strategist for high-achieving women, has a different take on how to improve your bottom line AND enjoy a high quality of life.

She says the endless hustle actually causes burnout, lowers motivation, and slows business growth, and the key to increasing your overall career success is taking a step back from the hustle and focusing on your health and self-care.

Leslie shares her “essentials of self care” to:

• increase motivation
• raise productivity
• prevent  burnout
• meet revenue goals
• reduce illness and absenteeism

Key Takeaways:

• Significance of setting personal boundaries around time, learning to say no, asking for help, and taking mental breaks
• Importance of self-love and vulnerability in the journey towards self-care and personal growth
• Challenges women face in setting boundaries, asking for help
• Impact of societal expectations on self-worth
