221. Hard Days, Easy Days, and the Power of Knowing the Difference
Episode description
In this episode of Help Me Understand, Coach JK McLeod shares a timely perspective on managing energy, time, and expectations as we move into the summer months.
Instead of overcommitting or burning out, JK breaks down how to check your personal capacity using a simple but powerful “ceiling and floor” framework.
Learning and implementing this framework will help you understand and identify when to go all in, and when to pull back.
You’ll also hear lessons inspired by run coaching (shoutout to @runningklutz) on how to structure your weeks so that your hardest days hit hard, and your easy days truly allow you to recover.
Whether you’re navigating summer as a parent, employee, coach, or all of the above, this episode will help you move through it with intention, not overwhelm.
