How to Protect Your Energy: The Ultimate Audit for Burned-Out Humans

 You’re exhausted, but maybe it’s not just the work.

Maybe it’s the people.

The ones who leave you drained. The ones who demand everything and give little. The ones who secretly treat you like a free energy drink.

It’s time for an Energy Audit.

Step 1: Track Who Leaves You Drained

For one week, note interactions that make you feel:

• Lighter: Inspired, supported, seen

• Heavier: Tired, frustrated, frustrated, frustrated

No judgment — just awareness.

---

Step 2: Categorize Your Relationships

Think like a business owner:

• High-value clients: People who energize you

• Low-value clients: People who take a little, give a little

• Toxic clients: People who drain you consistently

If someone is constantly in the “toxic” category, congratulations — you know who to limit.

Step 3: Celebrate Awareness

Play a little: after finishing your audit, do a victory gesture.

• Dramatic bow

• Fist pump

• Walk like a CEO reclaiming your energy

Play signals safety. Safety restores energy.

Remember: Awareness > guilt. You’re not mean for noticing who drains you. You’re strategic.
