Ever find yourself buried in an overflowing inbox, juggling competing priorities, and wondering how you’re supposed to operate strategically when everything feels urgent?

You’re not alone, and this episode is for you.

In this conversation, Melissa Peoples and I get real about what assistants are navigating right now.

We dive into your toughest, spiciest questions, from building trust with your exec and staying out of burnout, to holding boundaries, tightening up workflows, and dropping the myth that you have to be “always on” to be effective.

Inside this episode, we cover:

• How to shift out of “taskmaster mode” and show up more strategically, even when your confidence wavers.
  
  

• Clear ways to handle reorgs, ballooning responsibilities, and leaders who aren’t communicating.
  
  

• How to hold colleagues (and executives) accountable without slipping into people-pleasing or resentment.
  
  

• Simple systems for managing your inbox, workload, and priorities so you can quiet the chaos and operate at your best.
  

If you’re feeling overextended, overlooked, or undervalued, press play.

This conversation brings both clarity and the practical steps to help you stand tall in your role, own your expertise, and embrace your badassery.
