A 4-Week Self-Coaching Program for Global Leaders and Teams

If you lead across cultures, time zones, and competing priorities, you already know this truth. There is always more to do than can fit into a day.

  • More meetings

  • More decisions

  • More people are relying on you

  • More pressure to optimize, perform, and stay in control

And yet, trying to do everything is often what leaves us exhausted, disconnected, and stuck.

This 4-week self-coaching workbook is inspired by Oliver Burkeman’s Meditations for Mortals and designed specifically for global leaders and team members who are overwhelmed managing complexity, multiple teams, and constant demands.

Instead of offering another productivity system, this experience invites something different. A calmer, wiser way to lead and work by embracing your limits rather than fighting them.

This program is not about doing more. It is about doing what matters, with less stress and more clarity

Over four weeks, you will explore:

  • Being finite in a world that expects endless availability

  • Taking action without waiting for perfect conditions

  • Letting go of control where it is costing you energy and trust

  • Showing up more fully for your work, your people, and your life

Each week includes guided reflections, journaling prompts, and practical coaching actions you can apply immediately in your leadership and team context.

How it works:

This program is easy and simply delivered by email. You will receive one email per week for four weeks. Each email includes one section of the workbook to reflect on and use at your own pace.

  • No pressure to keep up

  • No requirement to be perfect

  • Just a weekly pause to think, reset, and refocus

Who this is for:

This is for global leaders and team members who

  • Feel stretched thin across cultures, roles, and responsibilities

  • Are tired of chasing productivity hacks that do not address the real problem

  • Want to lead with more presence, trust, and humanity

  • Are ready to stop managing everything and start engaging with what matters

Why This Matters for Global Work:

Leading across cultures already comes with uncertainty:

  • Different expectations

  • Different communication styles

  • Different ways of working

Trying to control everything in that environment is not just exhausting. It is ineffective.

This program and workbook help you build a leadership mindset that works with complexity rather than against it, one that supports better decisions, stronger relationships, and more sustainable leadership

What You Will Gain:

  • More clarity about what truly matters right now

  • Less guilt about what cannot be done

  • More confidence in taking imperfect but meaningful action

  • A calmer relationship with time, pressure, and expectations

You cannot do everything. And that is not a leadership failure. It is a leadership skill.
