| How She Built a Six Figure Business After Bedtime with Sam Hoyle | 07 Jan 2026 | 00:23:25 | |
Ever wonder how some mums actually manage to build a six figure business whilst juggling a full-time job, kids, and life, without completely burning out?
This week I'm chatting with Sam Hoyle, founder of Harmony Accounting, who did exactly that. She shares honestly what it took, the late nights after bedtime, the focused use of every spare moment, and the systems that kept her sane whilst running a business while working full time.
We talk about practical time management for business owners: doing the hard tasks first, using Asana as your external brain, and why finishing yesterday's unfinished work first thing today changes everything. Sam went from working evenings and weekends to handing in her notice within six months, without taking a pay cut.
It's a proper, grounded look at mum entrepreneur strategies that actually work when you're growing a service based business around all the other demands on your time. If you've been wondering whether it's actually possible, this episode will show you it is.

| 176 - 8 Ways to Reduce Overwhelm When Life Feels Too Full | 08 Dec 2025 | 00:30:03 | |
If you've ever hit that point where everything feels like "too much," this episode will feel like a deep exhale.
After coming back from five weeks of travel and walking straight into chaos, I found myself needing every tool I teach, so I sat down and recorded a solo episode on the exact strategies I use to reduce overwhelm and get myself back to a calmer, clearer place.
I share why overwhelm shows up, how to spot the thoughts that fuel it, and what to do when the maths of your to-do list genuinely doesn't add up. I also walk through simple nervous system tools, how to choose one priority when everything feels urgent, and why organising your tasks on paper or a calendar can shift your entire mindset.
It's a grounded, practical guide to finding your footing again, even when life and business feel full.

| 166 - Case study: Beating Calendar Overwhelm w/ Natalie Rockall | 27 Jul 2025 | 00:34:01 | |
Here's what no one tells you about time management coaching: the people who need it most are often the ones who are convinced they don't have time for it. My client, Natalie Rockall, was drowning in calendar overwhelm, squeezing meetings into impossibly tiny blocks while telling herself she was "too busy" to address her productivity issues. As a freelance email marketing consultant and self-proclaimed "deadline dancer," she'd built her entire work style around adrenaline and last-minute scrambling. However, deadline stress was no longer serving her; it was slowly destroying her business and her sanity.
In this episode, Natalie gets brutally honest about her transformation from a chaotic productivity entrepreneur to someone who has mastered business time management. She shares the exact freelancer productivity tips and time blocking strategies that saved her from burnout and gave her back control of her life.

| 160 - Productive vs Busy: How to Tell the Difference | 28 Apr 2025 | 00:33:25 | |
Midnight. Living room. Back killing me as I ironed endless bed linens. I was working 17-hour days in my campsite business. Cleaning bell tents until my hands were raw. I greeted guests with a smile despite my exhaustion. Answering enquiries at dawn. Washing and ironing bedding until midnight. Then doing it all again the next day. Yet my business wasn't growing. I had zero work-life balance. And my bank account certainly didn't reflect my herculean efforts.
The harsh truth? I wasn't being productive. I was just being busy.
I'm sharing the 20 game-changing filters that transformed how I use my time—filters that doubled my revenue while cutting my working hours in half. I'll show you exactly how to distinguish between tasks that deserve your best energy and tasks that are simply keeping you occupied but not creating progress.

| 151-3-Step Year-End Review Process for Business Owners | 23 Dec 2024 | 00:16:59 | |
It's so easy to leave a year-end business review until after Christmas, but sometimes that means we go into the holiday with unprocessed emotions—particularly if our year didn't go quite the way we wanted. Or it means we don't fully celebrate ourselves if our business did go well because we've usually forgotten about a lot of the things we did that were worth celebrating.
I've run year-end review workshops before using this exact 3-step process I'm taking you through in this episode. So I want you to treat this as if it were that workshop!
Make some space in your calendar, grab a coffee, sit down, download and print out the worksheet that accompanies this episode, and spend about an hour answering the questions as we go through them. This just might be the single best thing you do to set you up for a better next year!

| 150 - 4 Ways to Lower Your Resistance to Planning | 09 Dec 2024 | 00:15:19 | |
What if I told you it was possible to lower the resistance you have to planning? That it is possible to think of yourself as "good" at planning. To "like" planning. To want to take the time to plan. You're not alone in thinking this is an impossible feat. I have many clients who come to me wanting to get better at managing their time and being more productive. And they know that when they plan, it works well for them - but even with all that evidence showing it works for them, they still have so much resistance they have to fight through to get themselves to make a plan for their time. So we're gonna talk about it because if this is the case for you as well, then there are 4 areas I want you to review to see what's going on.
You're going to be able to look at each of these 4 areas and know exactly what to do to get that resistance to planning lowered. This could just be the missing piece you've been looking for to help you get into the rhythm of planning and getting in control of your time!

| 149: The Importance of Solving Problems in the Right Order | 25 Nov 2024 | 00:13:28 | |
On a recent family holiday, I was so focused on solving for several problems and challenges that I missed the most important one of all. Of course, the ones I tackled were important, but the order in which I focused on them and solved them needed to be shifted. Ironically, this is something that I coach my clients on. Hence, this episode! Because sometimes as entrepreneurs, we're solving for problems in the wrong order, and sometimes we're trying to solve the wrong problems altogether. Tune in as I share how to identify a problem vs a symptom, common problems I see my clients solving in the wrong order, and how to remedy this with a simple exercise. If you're serious about solving your money and time problems in your business, these are real things you will want to be addressing in the near future. And I'm confident you can do it!
