I hate email. And you can too!

It’s probably a bit of a stretch that an adult with ADHD who has 17,000 undread emails (at last count) is going to do a podcast about managing your email. 

 

But hear me out. 

 

I think we are in an opportunity to show up with leadership when it comes to both our inbox and our outbox, by breaking down some of the email culture we’re observing out there. 

 

We’re going to talk about how our email culture is breeding:

 

• Unrealistic expectations of each other. 

• To-do lists that we can’t finish. 

• A lack of self-responsibility and self-reliance. 

• Confusing channels for communicating with each other. 

 

We also talk about solutions such as:

 

• Muting your inbox

• Not caring

• Not responding

• But also real solutions that don’t compromise your relationships and your work. 

 

I think you’ll enjoy this real and honest call out of all of our email behaviour. We all have an inbox AND an outbox. 

 

Maybe we can slowly change the culture of email for good.
