In the Moment: How to Stop Running on Empty | Part 2 with Christian van Nieuwerburgh
Description
We’re obsessed with time management—but what about energy management? In this episode of What’s Possible, Ilene Schaffer and Christian Van Nieuwerburgh unpack practical strategies to sustain and recharge your energy throughout the week.
Through tools like energy audits, color-coding your calendar, and creating “replenishment wheels,” Ilene and Christian show how small shifts can prevent burnout and keep you thriving. They share real-world examples—from choosing a motorcycle ride over email, to finding micro-moments for music or walking—that restore energy even on the busiest days.
You’ll learn:
- How to identify activities that drain vs. replenish you
- Why planning energy boosts in advance matters more than waiting until you’re depleted
- The science of flow and reciprocity in energizing work
- Quick, everyday rituals to refuel your mind, body, and spirit
If you’ve ever felt the “fuel light” come on in your life, this episode offers practical ways to refuel before you hit empty.
