Hi there. You're listening to the Lazy Genius podcast. I'm Kendra Adachi. This podcast is not about hacking the system to find more time or hacking your energy to get more done. Hustling to be the best or to make the most out of every opportunity is exhausting and unsustainable. So here we do things differently. On this show, we value contentment,

compassion, and living in our season. We favor small steps over big systems. Here we are lazy

geniuses, being a genius about the things that matter and lazy about the things that don't.

And I am so glad you're here. Today is episode 469. How to Lazy Genius annoying responsibilities.

I've got them. You've got them. We've all got them. Annoying responsibilities like

scheduling doctor's appointments, updating insurance, renewing stuff, car maintenance, making

phone calls. There are a slew of things that are super responsible, but also highly annoying that can make

even the most organized Zen person have like a full come apart. I will not say crash out

because my children will disown me if I did that on Mike. The other day, I said, bro, I know.

And Annie immediately was like, absolutely not. Never say that again. So in our very

uncool way over here, we're going to talk about how to lazy genius those annoying responsibilities.

And I'm actually weirdly excited about this topic. After that, we'll have a little extra something

where I share a pre-summer reading update with you. Plus, I have a summer

reading question to ask you. We will celebrate the lazy genius of the week who has like the

sweetest rhythm of caring for her people. And we'll close with a mini pep talk for when you're

a lazy genius, but your partner is not. Now, I know that could be a whole episode, but we'll at least

have a mini pep talk about it today. Now, before we get into the episode, I have a super fun

update about the playbooks if you haven't ordered yours yet. So if you don't know, our playbooks

are kind companions for planning. They are these small seasonal notebooks that work with whatever

planner or calendar you already love to use, and they help you name what matters in your

season, figure out what you have to do and hope to do, triage your tasks, and just actually

get the things done that matter to you.
