March Check-In: Reclaiming Your Momentum as an Executive Assistant

Hey EA Family,

Can you believe we’re already in March? The first two months of the year often feel like a whirlwind—filled with catching up, resetting routines, and navigating the ever-evolving priorities of your executive and team. But now that we’re here, it’s time for a quick pulse check… on YOU.

How Are You Really Doing?

No, not the “I’m good, just busy” answer. Take a breath and think about it:

• Are you still feeling clear on your goals?

• Have you been carving out time for yourself?

• Is your calendar controlling you—or are you controlling it?

March is a perfect time to pause, realign, and make sure you're not just running—but running in the right direction.

Three Powerful Ways to Reset This Month

1. Revisit Your Intentions

Remember those goals you set in January? Dust them off. What’s still meaningful? What needs to shift? Give yourself permission to pivot and redefine success.

2. Simplify the Systems

Is your workflow serving you—or stressing you? Use March to clean up inboxes, tweak your task management tools, and offload or automate one thing that’s draining your energy.

3. Book Time for You

Yes—literally. Find 1-2 hours this month to focus on your own growth. Take a course, listen to an inspiring podcast, or do something that reminds you of your value outside the office.

A Gentle Reminder

You are doing an amazing job—even when it feels like you’re just holding things together. Your calm in the chaos, your sharp eye for details, and your intuitive sense of timing are making big things happen behind the scenes.

So as March marches on, let this be your mantra:

🗣️ “I am allowed to pause. I am worthy of rest. I don’t have to wait for burnout to give myself care.”

You’ve still got time to make this your best year yet—and it starts with how you show up for yourself this month.

You’ve got this, and I’m cheering you on every step of the way.
