The Case for Admin Days
Feeling overwhelmed by the non-stop pace of work and life? This solo episode with Seema invites you to pause and consider a simple but powerful tool that could radically shift how you approach your time, your energy, and your presence: the admin day. Seema is discussing the exhaustion that comes from chasing productivity at the expense of fulfillment and shares how reclaiming even small pockets of time can restore clarity, joy, and effectiveness in both your personal and professional life.
Whether you're juggling client meetings, family responsibilities, or just the mental noise of modern adulthood, this episode offers a fresh perspective on the value of slowing down. You'll learn why creating intentional space for yourself, whether it’s a full day, a few hours, or even just five mindful minutes, might be exactly what your soul has been craving.
