đ§ NEW EPISODE â S8 E9: Deciding Less, Leading More
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Letâs be real. Most of us are not exhausted from one big decision. We are drained by the hundreds of small ones we make before noon.
From âWhat should I wear?â to âCan I squeeze in this meeting?â, decision overload is real. And for many in our Latine community, the mental load runs even deeper. We are holding space for our families, our teams, and our dreams at once.
In this cafecito, we open up about the daily weight we carry and how to ease the pressure:
â
What decision fatigue looks like at work and at home
â
How culture and gender shape our mental load
â
Boundaries that protect your peace without guilt
â
How to lead with clarity, not just hustle
You are not lazy. You might just be overloaded.
Protecting your energy is not selfish.
It is leadership. It is love.
đ Tell us in the comments:
Where does your decision fatigue hit the hardest. Work, home, or both?
đ§ Listen on your way to work, during a walk, or while sipping your cafecito. We are on all major streaming platforms.
