Spinning Plates: A Simple Productivity System for Work, Family, and Projects

Description

In this episode, I break down the productivity system that helps me manage work, family life, content creation, and side projects - all without feeling overwhelmed.

It’s not about doing more, but about choosing the right plates to spin. I’ll share how I use tools like Google Calendar, Trello, and ToDoist alongside paper and notebooks to stay organised, prioritise what matters, and keep a clear overview of everything on my plate.

If you’re looking for a practical, flexible way to manage competing demands while staying sane, this episode will give you ideas to design a system that works for you.
