Ep 25: When Everything is a Top Priority

Why does everything feel urgent all the time — and what does it cost us? In this episode, Indra and Amanda unpack the toll of poor prioritization on teams, leaders, and organizations. 

From the illusion of decision-making to the chaos of shifting priorities, they explore the mental and operational burnout that comes when no one says no. They offer practical tools for creating clarity, setting boundaries, and making prioritization a leadership discipline, not just a labeling exercise. 

Whether you're the one setting the priorities or trying to survive them, this episode offers validation and strategies for pushing back on the pressure.
