                Friday Fuel - This Weeks Reflection Questions

                This week, a client learned (the hard way) what perfectionism really costs.

                She didn’t hit the wall because she wasn’t capable.
                She hit it because she was - and she kept proving it.
                Taking on too much. Not saying no. Carrying the load like it was hers alone… until it almost broke her.

                Then came the shift: she stepped back and realised the support was already there.
                A partner ready to step in.
                A strong team willing to share the weight.
                The gap wasn’t capability - it was mindset.

                Leadership isn’t doing more.
                It’s letting go of the need to be everything to everyone…

                Friday Fuel Career Reflection Questions

                1. Where are you still acting like it’s all on you?
                2. What’s one “no” you need to say next week to protect what matters most?
                3. Who could you let in, so you can lead with more steadiness and less strain?

                  Happy reflecting.

                  Have a lovely weekend.
