Ep 147 - How to Handle Energy Vampires at Work

Is the joy being sucked from your working day by energy drains? Tune into this episode to learn how to deal with energy vampires. I share how a strong mindset and powerful boundaries can overcome difficult interactions and situations at work.

As female leaders, we often find ourselves feeling exhausted and drained after certain meetings and conversations. But fear not, because in this episode, I’ll provide you with valuable insights and strategies to protect and preserve your energy.

Have you ever felt physically exhausted or even icky after a conversation with someone? Well, it turns out that if you are highly sensitive to other people's energy, their emotions can really affect you. I will explore protecting your energy and discuss practical tools, such as creating an energy bubble, to shield you from negative influences.

Whether you're dealing with colleagues who are constantly stressed or individuals who exude negativity, I’ve got you covered. By the end of this episode, you will have a better understanding of how to protect your energy and leave conversations feeling empowered, rather than exhausted.
