Whew! Another workday so filled with meetings, there was no time left for ...work? And what about how exhausting it is to have to be "on" all day? Listen in to learn how to just say no to energy sapping time sucks.

Unhook yourself from obligation energy and the accompanying guilt and shame. Look at your own story that's making you feel you can;t say no as well as how you are tapping into other people's stories about what you "should" be doing.
Be clear about what you need out of your day and claim it on your calendar. Block focused time based on your most productive period of the day, schedule time for tasks instead of making lists, prioritize breaks and time for a nourishing lunch by adding them on the calendar.
Train people on what to expect. If it's clear you are not available for back to back meetings or meetings scheduled without asking you first, then they will learn to respect your time more.
