    #60 Little Changes Make the Biggest Difference

    Welcome back to another edition of Addicted to Busy! This week’s episode is all about battling burnout and finding those little moments that make a world of difference in a chaotic schedule. I hope it inspires you to make small shifts that help keep your energy up, especially during these busy weeks. What's In This Episode: It can be easy to think that tackling burnout means taking on even more—doing more to “fix” the overload. But sometimes, the most productive thing we can do is just the opposite: take a beat, step back, and breathe. Put Yourself First to Be More Productive LaterIt took me years to realize that productivity isn’t about squeezing in more tasks—it’s about recharging first. When you prioritize your own well-being, you become more effective and make fewer mistakes in the long run. A 15-Minute Walk Can Shift Your MindsetA quick walk can be a game-changer, especially during a busy day. Imagine going through your toughest week but building in a daily 15-minute walk without your phone. This small habit changes how you approach each task, making you feel more centered and less reactive. Small Moments of MindfulnessIf taking a big break seems out of reach, start with smaller moments. Try breathing deeply while your lunch heats up or as you wash your hands. Moments like these give you a chance to reset, even when everything feels nonstop. And here’s a little teaser: want to learn what a “Sunshine Break” is and how it can help during overwhelming days? This episode has got you covered. 😊 Don’t Wait to Recharge It’s budgeting season, which means the work is nonstop and the stress can sneak up fast. Don’t wait until you’re already burned out to start taking care of yourself. Building in small, proactive breaks can help you show up feeling refreshed and ready, no matter how much is on your plate. P.S. I'm also gearing up to launch the Time Blocking for Property Managers course soon! Head over to AnnaJavellana.com to sign up for the newsletter so you’ll be the first to know when it drops. Each week, I’ll be sharing more insights, tips, and real talk about balancing work with wellness, especially for busy professionals like you.

    #59 When Your Story Becomes My Story

    One thing I love about property management is that every manager has a story that starts out, “You’re never gonna believe what happened at my site…” Storytelling has the power to teach, to change and to connect us. Through storytelling, we have the opportunity to learn from the experiences of others without having to go through those same struggles ourselves.  By listening to stories, we can see how different people have navigated challenges and come out on the other side stronger and wiser.  Much of what we do in property management cannot be taught through a textbook. There is no manual or procedure for how to keep your cool when a resident is besides themselves. And yet, one of the most valuable skills a manager can have is the ability to stay emotionally regulated in stressful situations. Some of our best managers have become the best by simply learning on the fly and sharing their experiences along the way.  One reason why this industry is so tight knit is because we support and teach one another by sharing our stories. Listen in to this week’s episode to hear more.  What’s inside this episode… Discover valuable lessons through storytelling  Expand your thinking by seeing things from a different point of view  Find hope and motivation by hearing about others' triumphs over challenges.  Featured on the show Want to really do this work?

    #57 Yes... And!

    When we set our sights on big goals, it’s not necessarily the goal itself that needs our attention: it’s all of the skills that we’ll inevitably need that we need to focus on. Doing things we’ve never done before will require us to try things we’ve never tried before. It requires us to put ourselves out there which means we could potentially feel embarrassed or rejected.  But working through those feelings is exactly how you attain the skills that you need in order to achieve your goals.  Life is going to provide you challenges all along the way. Some of those challenges will be forced on you. And hopefully some of those challenges will be chosen by you.  A chosen challenge is something that you chose for your own benefit.  A forced challenge is something that you have no choice but to deal with. Chosen challenges are things like running a 5k, saving money for an international trip, learning how to woodwork or learning another language. Forced challenges are things such as your building goes up for sale, your car’s engine dies, you lose a loved one or your property experiences a fire or flood.  The beauty of choosing your own challenges is that chosen challenges strengthen you for the forced challenges.  What’s inside this episode… My adventures with improv comedy How to get more intentional about the steps that you are taking towards your own personal goals  How to make sure that you intentionally choose to have fun along the way!

    #56 What I've Been Up To

    Welcome back to Addicted to Busy! It's been a while, and I wanted to share a significant life update and the new directions I'm exploring. Firstly, I've returned to property management full-time!  This life change has been the perfect opportunity to put my skills to the test. It’s the perfect chance to prove that the things that I share on this podcast and in my course are concepts that I, too, follow.  And, I can be humble enough to say that following these ideas isn’t easy. I’m constantly battling my inner dialogue that tells me that busy-ness and over-doing it are the answer. But I have to remember that the way that I choose to spend my time is a reflection of what my values are.  This year, my focus is on becoming a better speaker. I took an improv comedy class to improve my quick thinking, which was both terrifying and gratifying. Currently, I'm working with a mentor to refine my public speaking skills and considering taking a graphic design class to enhance my presentations. I encourage you all to invest in your skills in enjoyable ways. For me, activities like salsa dancing provide a mental break from work, preventing burnout and keeping me energized. Throughout this transition, I'm fighting old habits of overworking and perfectionism. I'm prioritizing sleep, health, and setting attainable goals. I've created non-negotiables that ensure I take care of myself daily, making me a more effective manager and person. Remember, while we can do anything, we can't do everything. Strategic planning and knowing when to recalibrate are crucial. I have many goals, but I've learned to prioritize and pace myself. Though I can't commit to weekly episodes right now, I promise to return with new content when possible. Your feedback is always welcome, and if you need a speaker, reach out to me on Instagram at Addicted to Busy or via email at hello@annajavellana.com. Until next time, keep going. I love you all! What’s inside this episode…  A life update on ATB  Why your professional network is crucial for your personal life  How to create a natural break in your day from property management  A reminder that perfectionism kills progress Featured on the show Want to really do this work?

    #55 Decoding Your Emotional Appetite with Molly Zemek

    I’ve been there. Busy property managers frequently encounter the challenge of succumbing to overeating or overdrinking at the close of each day. The demanding nature of our roles, coupled with the physical exhaustion from managing properties and addressing various issues, often leaves us with little energy for self-care. The daily grind can lead to a sense of overwhelm, making it difficult for property managers to resist the urge to seek comfort in food or alcohol as a form of reprieve.  Tune into this week’s episode where we welcome Molly Zemek, a professionally-trained chef, certified sommelier, and author of the new book "Decoding Your Emotional Appetite: A Food-Lover's Guide to Weight Loss." She hosts the internationally-ranked podcast "Weight Loss for Food Lovers" where she empowers food and wine lovers to feel and look their best without sacrificing the things they love. What’s inside this episode… How and why busyness can often times lead to overeating or overdrinking How to create more pleasure from eating (without guilt!)
