The Long Game Podcast with Sandra Scaiano Bandwidth & Brilliance with Diann Wingert EP 135
Have you caught yourself making plans, agreeing to things, and writing out to do lists in your planner as if time was a figment of your imagination? Are you guilty of packing your days before they ever begin only to beat yourself up for not meeting the most unrealistic expectations later?
Don’t be shy, raise your hand… my hand is up too!
In this episode, the keyword is bandwidth. My guest today, Diann Wingert, is a business strategist and coach that helps the super smart, savvy, expert women that started a business and try to operate on a theoretical bandwidth that doesn’t exist. She is the founder of Boss Up Breakthrough Coaching and saving women from themselves before burnout and overwhelm attack is what she does extremely well.
“We have to get really clear on our actual bandwidth, not our theoretical, not our ideal, but our actual bandwidth and our boundaries so that we can preserve our brilliance and prevent burnout.” -Diann Wingert
