Summary
#260: As summer fades and back-to-school energy fills the air, now is the perfect time to reassess what productivity looks like for you.
In this solo episode, I’m sharing how to create realistic systems that support your overall wellbeing—because productivity isn’t just about getting things done; it’s about creating time, energy, and space for what you love.
I’ll guide you in reflecting on your daily routines, moving away from endless to-do lists, and identifying what truly energizes you versus what drains your time.
I also talk about…
- What it means to have type A- personality
- Why perfectionism doesn’t convert to productivity
- How to create effective systems
- Digital organization tools to help you thrive
- Systems for running a small business and managing a team
