Let's talk about burnout and setting boundaries to help us avoid burnout as well as make some adjustments after we've burned out and we need to recover from it.

If you're anything like me and you are a high achiever and you have a huge heart for helping other people and big goals, dreams and ambitions, this is an episode that's really going to bless your life.

I'm talking with Melissa Lynn. She is a previously successful chemical engineer turned multiple six figure business coach, business owner and podcast.

She has such an interesting story and she really talks about how and provides us with some practical boundaries we can set into place when we are pursuing our dreams and building our careers, what it looks like to do that really well and to do that in a way that allows us to prioritize the things that matter most and the needle movers not only in our businesses and our careers, but also in our life and make sure we're not losing sight of what matters most.

And allowing ourselves to thrive because if we're constantly in go mode, which can be really easy and we live in a world that's constantly telling us to do more, be more, go more, all the things.

We really need to get out of that kind of hustle mentality. It's not that hustles battle the time. And I think sometimes we can feel like we either hear the message that hustle is the only way to success or we hear that hustle is bad and we actually have the approach of you need a little bit of both.

There's some seasons and some times that are going to call call for some more dedication, some more hustle, some more grit, some more grind like you're going to have to get in there and sometimes it's a busier season.

There's other seasons that are meant to be slower and meant to be more restful. But the goal here, and especially the goal of setting some healthy regular boundaries is to make sure that even in those busier seasons, we're not letting it take over our most important relationships and our families.

And we're not sacrificing what matters most at the altar of success or success and ear quotes, meaning, you know, the new, the next achievement, the next level, the next revenue goal, whatever it looks like.

So all that said, this is a great episode, super short, super practical, all about what it looks like to set some boundaries in terms of social media, in terms of calendars and time management, other things like that, phones, technology, all the things.

I'm not going to make you any longer. Let's dive right into this one with Melissa Lynn.

You're listening to She with Jordan Lee Dooley, a personal development podcast for the everyday woman, come invited, leave ignited. Here's your host, Jordan Lee Dooley.

Hey, Melissa, welcome to She.

Hi, thank you so much for having me. I'm so excited to be chatting today with you.

I am as well. I was just talking to you about this off air, but we've chuckled about the fact that we've rescheduled this three or four times.

Yeah, so we know you're the queen of flexibility. So that's a great place to start.

Definitely, definitely. I think we have a lot to get into today. But before we do, I would love if you can just share a little bit of your beginning.

I love to hear people's story of how they started and what led them to where they are now. I think this is really healthy because we have women at all stages of their journey, whether it's in their career or in their business, whether or not they're entrepreneurs.

And I think sometimes we can look at where we're at in a journey and we can listen to a conversation with others or we can learn from others and feel like, oh my gosh, I feel so far behind or I feel so stuck.

So I always love to just get to get the low down on the beginning of the story. So maybe we should start there.

Yes, I love getting into my story. My story is the very unique story to give you a little like I open under what's about to come your way.

I was a chemical engineer and now I'm casual and now I'm a business coach. So I get so many like list backs and like I open up and I was like, wait, what you do what?
