In this week’s episode of Beyond Our Walls, Tim dives into the reality of decision fatigue—a challenge that affects all of us, whether you are in a formal leadership position or not, because we all end up navigating endless choices and conflicts in our daily lives.
Tim reflects on the toll of constant decision-making, sharing candid stories from his own experience, like the split-second choice of whether to be honest about feeling overwhelmed or putting on a brave face. Backed by research on the physical and mental impacts of decision fatigue, this episode explores why exhaustion sets in and how it affects our ability to lead effectively.
With practical strategies, relatable anecdotes, and a dose of pop culture wisdom from Parks and Recreation’s Leslie Knope, Tim offers actionable advice for simplifying decisions, delegating tasks, and reconnecting with core values.
