In MTFS Episode 220, "Plug the Leaks," Dr. Christine Li brings powerful insights from her recent workshop that attracted over 100 participants eager to address their energy drains. Drawing from business coach James Wedmore's "leaky bucket" metaphor, Dr. Li guides listeners through identifying where their energy is escaping and, more importantly, why.

The episode reveals common energy leaks such as insufficient sleep, excessive social media use, overcommitment, and people-pleasing behaviors. However, Dr. Li's key revelation is that these issues often stem from a deeper source: lack of self-trust. She explains how building self-trust and following through on commitments can transform energy drains into opportunities for growth and vitality.

Through workshop participant examples and practical guidance, Dr. Li demonstrates how listeners can reclaim their power, make better decisions, and create meaningful changes in their lives. The episode includes information about accessing a free worksheet for personal reflection and details about an upcoming five-day challenge focused on decluttering and energizing your home environment.
