Description

You start your day with a color-coded calendar—and end it wondering why the whole thing fell apart by lunch. Meetings run long, kids need you, and suddenly your perfectly blocked schedule looks like a Jenga tower.

In this episode of Ditch the Chaos, we’re breaking down simple time management tips that actually work—specifically, why task batching beats time blocking for busy women who need systems that flex with real life.

You’ll learn:

  • Why time blocking collapses under the chaos of real life
  • How task batching saves energy and cuts context switching
  • What “shifting a batch” really looks like when life interrupts
  • How theme days protect your focus and energy
  • Real-life examples of batching at work and at home

These lessons come straight from what I teach in Chaos Detox—because productivity doesn’t start with planners. It starts with methods that work with your life.
