How often do you feel like your life is mission impossible??
Between running a business, managing staff, taking care of kids and family, and trying to find time for yourself it can feel like the world is falling to pieces.?
It can be exhilarating. The highs of success and feeling like a total Wonder Woman, which you are.?
But the lows of fatigue and burnout can make us give up on our dreams in search of a life that is easier or simpler.
One that allows us to live, but one that doesn’t fulfill us.
One that keeps us safe but doesn’t excite us.
But what’s the alternative? How can we really live this superhero lifestyle without constantly having to make a surprise comeback after the villain nearly wins???
How do we get out of the cycle of fighting fires and having to be everywhere at once??
The most important step you can take is learning that YOU DON’T HAVE TO DO EVERYTHING YOURSELF.?
When the invisible jet breaks down and the world seems to be dissolving into chaos Wonder Woman relies on the help of her experts to get her up and running again. Not only that but she’s part of a team of superheroes, people that can rely on to be there when things get tough. She knows she can rely on the rest of the Justice League just like the people in her world rely on her.?
How?can we leverage our own team of superheroes so that we don't end up stranded on an island with a broken down??
Building your network isn’t as simple as adding as many names to a list as possible. It’s about connecting with intent. Understanding that networking isn’t simply transactional, “what can you do for me”, but rather transformational, “how can we work together to create positive change.”

2. Learn To Delegate.
Your team is here to help you. I know when running a business it can sometimes feel that if you aren’t there everything will fall apart. But I have clients who can testify that this just isn’t the case. Trust your team and learn to delegate the tasks that someone else is capable of doing, even if it requires a little bit of training. As I mentioned earlier, let someone else refuel the jet while you focus on saving the world.
3. Prioritise.
To really lead the superhero lifestyle you’re going to need to make some tough decisions and decide what’s really important in your life. Is work more important than family, or do you need the flexibility to leave early on a Friday to pick your kids up from school? Is work more important than sleep, or can that task wait until the morning? These are the types of situations we need to learn where our priorities lie so that we can delegate when things intrude on our priorities and avoid burnout.?
You can do it all… with a little help. I know for myself my husband Jason has been an incredible support throughout my business journey and within our family as he helps with the kids so that I can focus on my work. And we allow that to happen because we work just like our team of superheroes.?
So who's on your Justice League??
