At some point, responsibility stops being a role — and becomes who you are. This workshop is for leaders who are: • the reliable one • the steady one • the one others lean on And quietly tired of always being necessary. We look at: • how responsibility attaches to identity • why delegation doesn’t reduce emotional load • what happens when your nervous system never gets to stand down This session is about understanding the cost of always being the one who holds things together.

Mercy - not getting what you do deserve Grace - getting what you don’t deserve Both require judgement and give the impression that something is to be earned When we feel that way about rest, we can drive ourselves to burnout because deep down, we don’t feel like anything we do will ever be ‘enough’ So we need to make a shift You don’t earn the right to rest Rest IS the right And the bonus is that when you practice rest as a right, it gives you the energy to do what you’re doing, well More energy = more focus More focus = less mistakes Less mistakes = less correction Less correction = more time More time = more energy So what judgement are you casting over yourself that makes you feel like you still have to earn rest? What time horizon are you giving yourself which makes everything urgent and a now problem? What story about your past are you trying to overcompensate for? What issue do you care about so deeply that you feel only you can deal with it within your lifetime? Let’s discuss in the comments

I wanted to share something that could really support some of you. Vicki Igbokwe-Ozoagu, who I know personally as a mentor, is hosting a 30-minute Lighter Leadership™️ Reset. It’s a facilitated space designed for people who carry a lot of responsibility and rarely get uninterrupted time to think clearly. It’s not a workshop or training. It’s a protected space to pause, step out of urgency, and hear yourself think again. The next session is on Wednesday 25th March, and it’s £25. She also shared a code with me that reduces it to £17.50 for those in this community: RESET26 I thought of us because of the level of leadership and responsibility so many of us hold.

For those who attend, let's share our experiences in the comments

You get the job, promotion, house, car, family, launch the business, and surpass your dreams... So why do you feel like you're not doing enough? Parkinson's Law states that supply expands to meet demand. If you have 3 hours or 3 days, that's how long it'll take. If you have a budget of £300 or £3000, that's how much you will spend. But what happens when the supply never meets the emotional demand? In this call, we'll explore: The gap and its effect on your nervous system, the hidden emotional load of high achievement, identity attachment to performance, and why external success doesn’t equal internal fulfilment. You’ll leave with: Clarity on the disconnect, emotional validation, and a new definition of success rooted in sustainability, not sacrifice.
