Take 5 minutes to recharge your social battery
A 5-Minute Practice to Recharge Your Social Battery If the link to play the video above isn't working, click here to watch. I'm curious, Reader ... what size social battery do YOU have? My personal battery's capacity is pretty small (like AAA equivalent) and needs frequent recharging. Social situations and interacting with large numbers of people leaves me feeling drained. Perhaps that's why working from home suits me so well? If you're an introvert like me, you know the importance of resetting and recharging. And if you're an extroverted "people person," you, too, need to take care of yourself and recharge your battery to be at your best. That's why I'm sharing today's video meditation to help you enjoy connecting with others ... something we all crave yet don't always have the "battery power" for. And while this may be more noticeable at the holidays, it applies year-round. So I hope you'll use this 5-minute mindful breathing practice to ground and balance you whenever you need it. As always, I'd love to know what you think of this week's newsletter. Post your thoughts on social and tag me (@coachmichelepeterson), or simply reply to this email! Thank you. I appreciate you! xoxo, Now for more good stuff ...

The Cost of Not Systematizing Your Work-From-Home Work Hey Reader, Ever feel like your workday is one long game of déjà vu? You’ve already written that email. Already looked for that file. Already thought through when to do that task. Yet here you are … doing it all over again. That’s the hidden cost of not having systems in place. It doesn’t feel huge in the moment — just another 10 minutes here, another decision there. But it adds up. And by the end of the day, you’re running on fumes,...
Create Systems That Support You Working Smarter, Not Busier Hey Reader, Ever feel like working from home is the mental equivalent of having 37 browser tabs open at once?

That constant tab-switching drains your energy — and the sneaky culprit behind it is often decision fatigue. The quickest way to close some of those tabs? Create a simple system. A system doesn’t...
This Labor Day, Celebrate Your Work Hey Reader, Labor Day (which officially is tomorrow in the U.S., but don't we all make a whole weekend out of it?!) usually makes us think of cookouts, parades, and the official end of summer.

As a tenacious work-from-home entrepreneur, it’s easy to skip right past the holidays, to blur Monday into Friday, or to downplay the labor that...
