072: Why Nothing Is Moving Forward Right Now

072: Why Nothing Is Moving Forward Right Now11 aug5 min

Last week's episode covered psychology, the story running underneath everything you do in business. This week we move to capacity, and it might be the pillar that gets skipped past more than any other, because it doesn't sound as impressive as strategy.

Capacity is the actual fuel in the tank, energy, time, nervous system regulation, sleep, the physical and emotional bandwidth you have available on any given day. You can have exactly the right psychology and still hit a wall, because the tank itself is empty.

This episode brings together Emily Williams on the capacity to receive rather than only the capacity to work, and four of Lucy's own solo episodes on overwhelm, sleep, the high performance paradox, and the simple fix that cuts both overheads and overwhelm in one move.

What you'll hear in this episode:

Emily Williams on why so many high performers hit an invisible income ceiling that has nothing to do with strategyLucy on reframing overwhelm and becoming a magnet for abundance instead of running from itLucy on why sleep might be the most underrated performance tool available to entrepreneursLucy on the high performance paradox, why the more capable you get, the more capacity itself becomes the limitLucy on the simple fix that cuts your overheads and your overwhelm in one move

If this week has you noticing where your own capacity is stretched thin, try this diagnostic - “How RITCH is Your Life?", built for exactly that kind of noticing.

And if you're ready to build proper capacity into how your business runs, eSCHOOL's founding member rate is open at £37 a month, or £297 for the year. Check it out
