She commented, \u201cyou once sent me a blog about ebb and flow energy, and it\u2019s been invaluable to me at times when my motivation has been low and my imposter syndrome high\u201d.\n\nNaomi Dunford wrote this particular blog from ittybiz in 2017, and in it, she takes a behind-the-scenes look at why bad days happen. She highlights the importance of recognising your energy levels so that you can achieve realistic tasks during both these cycles to make the most of your day.\n\nIn this podcast, I share practical tips that I have found beneficial to make the most of my ebb and flow that I hope will be invaluable to you too.\n\nWe can\u2019t meet every day with the same amount of energy, but trust that you will get things done and do what works for you.","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300,"thumbnail_url":"https://artwork.captivate.fm/7081d1e9-b057-4d73-83ac-8df31aeb0456/ue8o-h3j5-fgtok6jdxopsx4.jpg"}
