Monday, October 14, 2024 • Duration 18:21

Even the best compassionate time management practices won’t make chaos go away.

So when it hits, it’s nice to have some things you go to automatically that help you stay grounded, whole, and very much yourself when life feels chaotic. Today, I’m sharing 7 things I do when life feels chaotic.

#386 - 10 Reasons Why Compassionate Time Management Changes Everything

Monday, October 7, 2024 • Duration 19:53

Compassionate time management is needed, and I believe that I am uniquely qualified to teach, share, and encourage it. I’m a recovering perfectionist, I’m good at systems, I’m a student of personal growth, I’m a therapy patient, and I’m a teacher. All of those things together have made me see the world through this very specific lens of compassion, and tomorrow is the day that the book I wrote to teach compassionate time management releases into the world.

#385 - How to Manage an Odd Stretch of Time

Monday, September 30, 2024 • Duration 20:09

An odd stretch of time is when something significant changes the vibe of your daily life over a handful of days. Whether it’s a sickness, an injury, a guest, a project, it impacts your routines. It upends previously settled calendar logistics. It’s not always bad or even unwanted. It’s just odd. Let’s talk about navigating it well.

#384 - 3 Time Management Shifts That Will Change Your Life

Monday, September 23, 2024 • Duration 20:42

I’ve been doing a lot of interviews recently, and a lot of the questions are understandably connected to the things we could or should be doing to have a better day. What are the routines, the tasks, the hacks that can get us to a place where we feel like we’re not underwater all the time? Well, the most accurate answer is that those aren’t the questions we should be asking. We really need a huge paradigm shift, and today, I want to focus on aspects of time management we’ve been getting wrong.

#383 - What’s Saving My Life Hall of Fame

Monday, September 16, 2024 • Duration 19:50

We do What’s Saving My Life episodes regularly, just about every quarter, and I find the practice helpful, light, enjoyable, and necessary to keep me rooted in my season. But today is a little different because it is a Hall of Fame episode.

Remember, this is my personal list. This is not supposed to be replicated. Hear why these things are on my list to help you make yours, but by no means should our lists be the same.

#382 - How to Manage Calendar Logistics

Monday, September 9, 2024 • Duration 30:50

Everyone has calendars to logistic (I know that’s not right, but I like it), and for certain people, seasons, families, those logistics feel like they’re going to eat you alive. Right now, my Google calendar has so many blocks in it, some of which overlap and I haven’t quite figured out how to reconcile those overlaps yet. It’s a whole thing, and maybe your calendar looks or at least feels like that.

So let’s talk about how to do this like a Lazy Genius. How can you manage calendar logistics in a reasonably efficient, intentionally kind way?

#381 - The Real Reason Planning Is Hard

Monday, September 2, 2024 • Duration 14:55

We’re into compassionate time management around here, but it’s not just pep talks and high fives. We’re practical and kind, but we’re also educated. We are trying to understand why we struggle with time management, why we own so many planners, why we never feel like we’re doing enough, and even if we finally have let that go, we still struggle against the tide of everyone else making us feel bad for our beliefs.

Basically, the problem is not you, and today I’m going to show you why by reading you the first chapter in my new book, out October 8, called The PLAN.
