Productivity Tips And Inspiration
why smart people procrastinate
Ever sit down to get your work done, stare at five different projects, and then proceed to do nothing? Used to happen to me All.The.Time. That’s because an overwhelmed mind shuts down. Even when you have the best intentions, even when you know what needs to happen – when you feel overloaded, you can’t take…
Learning to plan when you don’t like to
Do you want to plan more but hate the idea of being on a schedule? Cringe at the idea of infringing on your go-with-the-flow personality? You’re not alone. So many women I speak to feel the same way. Looking at a packed schedule feels restrictive and stressful for two reasons. One, it’s overwhelming. Two, it feels terrible when…
got nothing done today?
It’s 9:13 a.m. You’ve got a list of important things to do and are motivated to make headway. Yet somewhere between your dings, rings, beeps, and your client who promises “It will just take a minute” (yeah right)…your day disappears. It’s beyond frustrating especially since you HAVE taken action. You deal with the crisis. You return the…
stop starting and stopping
You’re doing 10 things at the same time. (more like 20). Aka: Constantly multi-tasking. I get it. As a CEO, mom, and doer of all things, you have to multi-task otherwise nothing will get done. Multi-tasking isn’t always bad. Like when you fold laundry and talk to your bestie. Or when you take a walk and…

When you should be focusing on your superpowers: the stuff you’re great at, the projects and work that light you up… …You…
who knew two weeks could be so powerful
The difference between being successful and not is this: People who make goals and reach them, succeed. It’s as simple as that. To reach your goals you need a plan. Not just a high-level plan…a plan for today, tomorrow, and the day after that. I see this disconnect so often with my clients. They have…
how to stop feeling paralyzed
84 new messages. Dozens of alerts and texts. Client folders pile high. Has anyone walked the dog?! There’s no doubt you have a hundred hundreds of important things to do. So you take the next natural step. You do the dishes. Or jump on IG. Or organize your makeup drawer. Why this? Why now? All the demands on…
how you know what’s truly important
It happened today…and I’m not happy about it. I look a few days ahead in my calendar and I’ve definitely overdone it. Too many calls, meetings, projects, and demands. Too many commitments and yeses to other people and their expectations. I don’t like what I see. Our calendars act as a mirror to our lives….
the absolute best system to use
I have to tell you about THE best system ever. It’s how I manage all my to-do’s and tasks across my life. It’s exceptional. It will totally work for you. Unless it doesn’t. Maybe you’ll hate Notion (my new life management tool). Or maybe you’re an Outlook diehard and hate Google Calendar. In fact, maybe you hate digital stuff altogether and…
