395 Tanessa Shears - Easy Ways to Start Your Day with More Energy and Clarity

What if the secret to boosting your productivity as a photographer wasn't in the latest camera gear or editing software, but in your own biology? Imagine showing up at your workspace, energized, focused, and ready to conquer the day ahead. This week, we're joined by biohacking expert, Tanessa Shears, who guides us on a journey to do just that. We explore the connection between value, goals, and biological optimization, and why your sense of self-worth should never be tied to your productivity levels.

We shed light on the significance of sleep for productivity and how to harness the power of our greatest asset - our brain. With Tanessa's insights, we delve deeper into the causes of brain fog and how our feelings of self-worth can affect our sleep and productivity. We discuss how data from tools like the Oura Ring can help us better manage our energy and focus. By tracking and understanding these patterns, we can optimize our sleep and elevate our energy levels.

As we wrap up, Tanessa walks us through her 12 Ways to Biohack Your Energy playbook. We discuss simple strategies, including the surprising power of spending time outdoors and the electrifying effects of a cold shower. And guess what?

Shareable Quotes"Your value has nothing to do with your productivity. Your value as a human is completely separate from that and I always think, like the whole reason where we have these businesses and the whole reason we have these goals is because we want to feel a certain way.""What would it look like if you woke up and your brain was at 90%? How would that feel to live your life? What would it feel like to be able to engage better with your clients, to have more fun while doing it, to be more present with your kids.""It's so much easier to have compassion with yourself when you're like oh well, my progesterone just dropped, no wonder I can't regulate temperature, no wonder I feel not as strong, and it's just really, let me have compassion."Resources Mentioned
