Assistants are leading huge digital projects—agile rollouts, tech stack upgrades, and building a true digital workplace. But along with always-on tools comes a real risk: digital burnout. In this conversation with Diana, we get practical about boundaries, mindful work, and switching off—without losing your edge.

What you’ll learn:
How to set healthy boundaries and say no (guilt-free)
A 6-point strategy for switching off in a remote/hybrid world
Simple ways to design a wellbeing-first workspace (yes, candles and fresh air count)
Routines that protect energy: breaks, end-of-day cut-offs, movement
Productivity that doesn’t fry your brain: Kanban boards + the Pomodoro method
Managing meetings and expectations with your exec (be in the right meetings)
Using status updates and notifications smartly (hello, Teams “offline”)
Reward systems that keep you motivated (bring on the chocolate and bubbles)

Diana’s 6-Point Mindful Assistant Plan:
Build a healthy workstation you actually enjoy using
Create routines (start/finish times, real breaks, move while on calls)
Work productively (Kanban, focused sprints, fewer interruptions)
Find an accountability buddy/mentor and audit your meetings
Practice mindfulness daily (fresh air, true lunch breaks, device flight mode)
Reward yourself weekly and monthly—celebrate the wins

Tools & tips mentioned:
Kanban (whiteboard, Planner, Trello—use what you’ll stick with)
Pomodoro timers & focus apps (KanbanFlow, Focus List, Focus Booster)
Digital-detox helpers (Mindshine, Offtime, RescueTime)
Email blocks & notifications hygiene (turn most alerts off)
Transparent status messages for core hours in Teams/Slack

Why this matters
The #1 struggle in remote work? Unplugging. If you’re an EA who loves to over-deliver, this episode helps you protect your health while still operating at a high level—so you can be the strategic, tech-savvy assistant ready for Industry 4.0 without burning out.
