Description

If you’ve ever looked around at your chaotic life and thought, "Is it just me, or are we all drowning??” then this episode is for you.  Today I’m pulling back the curtain and walking you through what a typical weekday looks like for me while raising my four kids, juggling my coaching practice, and chasing after two crazy dogs. 

You’ll hear how I break my day into four quarters (because honestly, it feels like four separate days), the systems that keep me grounded, and where I’ve learned to just let things go. This is a real-life look at how I stay productive without burning out, and how I build in flexibility instead of forcing rigid routines.

Here’s what I talk about:

  • What my days look like—from quiet(ish) mornings to chaotic evenings
  • How I decide what gets done when (and what doesn't get done at all!)
  • Why Google Calendar is my brain + how we use a Skylight for the family
  • The Time Bucket System I created to feel progress in all my roles
  • How I’ve redefined productivity to work with my energy—not against it
