You track your quota. You track your cases. But when's the last time you actually tracked your energy? Most high performers don't burn out from doing too much — they burn out from carrying too much.

In this episode, Lisa and Cindy walk you through a live energy audit built for medical device reps who are always moving but running on empty. From toxic accounts and coconut line teammates to decision fatigue and an inbox that never stops — they break down the hidden leaks quietly stealing your focus every day.

The challenge this week isn't about doing more. It's about asking yourself: what is stealing energy from the things that matter most? Answer that honestly, and your Friday will look very different.

Must-Hear Insights and Key Moments

  • The Energy Audit Explained — Lisa and Cindy introduce a simple 1-to-10 scoring exercise to help reps identify where their mental and emotional energy is actually going — and what's quietly costing them performance.
  • Toxic Accounts Have an Emotional Price Tag — Not every account is worth the mental cost. The hosts break down how certain hospitals and customers can drain you before you even walk through the door.
  • The Coconut Line Is Real — Negative teammates are one of the sneakiest energy drains in the business. Lisa and Cindy talk about why they're hard to spot, harder to set limits with, and exactly what to do when that call comes in.
  • Decision Fatigue Is a Sign, Not a Weakness — When you can't answer "what's for dinner," your brain is telling you something. The hosts explain why depleted decision-making at home is a direct signal of mental depletion at work.
  • Email, Travel, Sleep, Social Media — The audit covers all of it: the inbox stress response, what travel really costs your focus, how your feed is feeding your mindset, and why sleep isn't optional if you want to perform.
  • Unfinished Tasks Are Carrying Weight — That spreadsheet you've been avoiding? It's draining you every single day you don't do it. Lisa and Cindy make the case for tackling the hard stuff first — and why the planner exists.
  • The Real Secret to More Energy — It's not about doing more. It's about eliminating what's draining you. The hosts close with one clear challenge: identify what's stealing energy from what matters most, and fix just one thing this week.
