DESCRIPTION:I spent months automating the manual data processes that filled
  my days. Reports that took hours now run in minutes. Scripts I babysat no
 w run themselves. I essentially automated away a significant portion of my
  own job.\nWas I worried? Absolutely.\nWas it worth it? Completely.\nIn 5 
 fast-paced minutes\, I'll share the unexpected lessons from automating my 
 way out of busy work and into higher-value work—the fear\, the resistanc
 e\, the wins\, and why freeing yourself from manual toil is the best caree
 r move you can make. If you've ever hesitated to automate something becaus
 e "what will I do then?"\, this talk is for you.
