Ep 164 – 6 strategies for reducing email overwhelm with Fay Wallis
Manage episode 424021621 series 2436396
Does just looking at your inbox create a rush of overwhelm? You’re not alone in that, the average person receives 121 work emails every single day!
In this episode, my guest, career and executive coach Fay Wallis shares 6 practical strategies you can use to reduce your email overwhelm. We discuss:
- Why grouping emails by sender is insightful
- The problems with using your email inbox as a to-do list and what to do instead
- When to hit unsubscribe
- How to ‘unsubscribe’ from internal emails
- Using tools like email templates and schedule send
- Prioritising deep work
- Setting email boundaries
I also share an excerpt from my current favourite book, Four Thousand Weeks by Oliver Burkeman on why inbox zero isn’t actually going to bring us the peace of mind we think it will.
This is the Influence & Impact podcast for women leaders, helping you confidently navigate the ups and downs of leadership and feel less alone on your journey as a leader.
My name’s Carla Miller, I’ve been coaching leaders for the past 15 years and I’m your leadership bestie. I’m here to remind you of the value to bring to your organisation, to help believe in yourself and to share practical tools and insights from myself and my brilliant guests that will help you succeed in your career.
