Stop Doing What Drains You

Stop Doing What Drains You

In this solo episode of Own the Exit, Aaron Leatherdale dives deep into the concept of an energy audit, a game-changing tool for optimizing how you spend your time. Inspired by Dan Martell's Buy Back Your Time, Aaron shares how identifying tasks that drain, energize, or neutralize your energy can transform your productivity and overall business success.

 

He walks through practical steps for tracking your time, assigning "red," "yellow," or "green" labels, and delegating tasks that don’t align with your strengths. Whether you're an entrepreneur seeking efficiency or a leader striving to build a motivated team, this episode offers actionable insights to make every hour of your week count.
