Sharing Wisdom

Mandy Fry has it. She's president and co-owner of Z Supply, still a designer at heart, home for her family, and running a calendar booked through next May, and since 2019 she has grown the brand from about 48 employees to 135 while staying grateful and joyful in the middle of all of it. What makes it possible is capacity. She rarely lets a decision or a conversation sit and circle above her he...

Somewhere around the first week of October the year stops feeling like it has any room left in it.  In this solo episode Angie names the four things that go offline when capacity runs out, and why every one of them gets mistaken for a personal failing rather than a resource problem. The second half takes on something most people have never questioned, which is what happens after years of being pro...

Most people have a sentence they use for a stretch like this, whether it's bad things happen in threes or I'm just in a rough season or I don't know what's going on, I'm just lucky right now. Every one of those puts the cause somewhere outside of you. It isn't outside of you. There's a loop running, it has four steps, and it's yours. Once you can see it, you can stop it partway through. And the sa...

A client told me she was overwhelmed, so I asked her what was overwhelming her. Work, her kids, her husband, herself. I asked what her expectation was and she said to do all of it, perfectly. I asked if that list was realistic and she said no. She wasn't overloaded. She was carrying a list she had already decided was impossible, and she had never once said that out loud. You think you have too...

You keep telling yourself the same thing: there's just too much on my plate. But Angie dug into the capacity research and found the story is backwards. In a study of more than 800,000 workers, the biggest drain on capacity wasn't the volume of work or conflicting information, it was the lack of clarity, not knowing what was actually theirs to own. In other words, it's not what's on...

You already know the obvious leaks. Ruminating at midnight, saying yes when you meant no, running on four hours of sleep and a lot of coffee. There is a fourth one, and almost nobody names it, because it does not look like a leak. It looks like being good at your job. It is the energy you spend overriding yourself. Every time your body says no and you stay in the room anyway. Dr. Anna Marie Frank,...

You understand it, you've read the books, listen to the podcast, maybe even did therapy. You understand where the old story came from and you have made real peace with it. And then the trigger hits, and the same reaction shows up like nothing ever changed. In this solo episode, Angie sits with a question one of her clients asked her: I have worked through this, so why do I keep reacting the sa...

You know the moments. You're locked in, clear, quick on your feet, and things go the way you wanted them to go. Then there are the others, where the same work feels heavy, your patience runs thin, and your mind keeps landing on things you never chose to think about, all inside the same day, as the same person. Most people chalk that up to mood, or sleep, or pressure. In this solo episode, I wa...
