Description

In healthcare leadership, overload isn’t failure; it’s reality. The real skill isn’t juggling faster—it’s choosing smarter. In this episode, I share how savvy leaders say no not out of resistance, but out of intention. You’ll learn a simple, powerful framework for triaging requests—deciding which balls to catch, which to bounce, which to shelve, and which to drop on purpose. We’ll explore how to protect your focus, communicate boundaries without guilt, and even say no strategically to create bigger wins elsewhere. This episode will challenge how you define success, sanity, and sustainability in leadership—because great leadership isn’t about doing it all. It’s about choosing what matters most and saying no with confidence.
