💌 Want to share your 1 Thing? Hit me up during my ⁠office hours!⁠

If you’ve ever felt personally attacked by the phrase “show me your calendar and I’ll show you your priorities” — this episode is for you.

This week, I’m testing one of the most overhyped productivity systems out there: time blocking.
Can I actually set a schedule… and stick to it? Or will it all fall apart by Monday afternoon?

Here’s the twist — I’m not doing this to “win.”
I’m doing it to find out where the system breaks first — and what that teaches us about building consistency without pressure, guilt, or perfectionism.

This is self-improvement in real time: small experiments, honest failures, and surprising lessons from trying to live a little more intentionally.

If you’re stuck in planning mode — always consuming, never creating — this experiment might be your sign to start your own.

  • Why time blocking fails for most people (and how to fix it)

  • How to spot your “break point” and build systems around it

  • What to do when your motivation disappears

  • How to treat failure like data, not defeat

Each night for the next 7 days, I’ll share what worked, what didn’t, and what broke first — so you can run your own low-stakes life experiments right alongside me.

📅 New episodes drop at 7PM.
