How do you readjust your week’s workflow when you know you’re going to catch the family bug sooner or later… but you’ve got clients and students and deliverable projects to keep in the air?? (And inside you’re resenting your kids for ruining your nice, was-going-to-be-productive week and swapping it out for taking care of sickies!) The one thing I for-sure-for-sure know is that if you’ve got THIS one thing in place, it’s actually a really quick and easy process to rejigger your to-do list on ...

You’ve got clients flowing in the door; all the invoicing and transaction entering and profit taking that goes along with them; more half-finished deliverables than you can shake a stick at; oh, and a family and body that you’re supposed to take time for, too. And the reason you haven’t done anything about it yet is that you’re on contract with each and every one of those clients, so you don’t want to do anything legally liable in your search so far for more day to day balance! That was the c...

2025/09/09

If you haven't started your kids on chores yet, now is a GREAT time to get going. Because unless your kids are 4 and under, they can be doing chores…. ….Which means it's YOUR responsibility to teach them. Because the first and primary way you’re going to have less on your plate to do around the house - i.e., permanently do less housework - is with the two magic words of “kids” and “delegation.” You’ve got this!

You’re battling the same sneaky story that your brain likes to tell you - that it’s your fault for not being gracious enough and understanding enough and reframing your frustration with your team…. Newsflash: you aren’t supposed to be resenting anything in your ideal everyday life! That’s a red flag that something’s wrong. So why are you sitting there, stewing in your own “should I say something to my content VA or should I let it blow over again” juices, instead of tweaking your workflows to...

You’re already sold on morning routines, but which is better - knocking out 5 chores before the kids get up, or using your precious quiet hours to pour into yourself? Because you know you need to schedule in your personal recharge time on the daily, and morning’s one of the easiest times to actually guarantee it…. (Aka, win-win for your scheduling process….) But should you ACTUALLY be doing it? Right then and there? Because it's not going to work too well to cram both into your morning....

Because it’s not your to-do list’s fault. It’s yours. If you’re not confident that you can knock out everything on that to-do list, and you’re tying yourself up in knots about it, that’s a “you” issue. Listen - your task list does not have the ability to burden you. (From Allie Casazza.) It’s how you think about it that’s affecting you. You’ve got this!

Those gurus are forgetting that you have kids, and you can’t just wake up at 5am every day to bang out 4 hours of work like nothing else exists.

It’s like Saturday is hiding out from you, hoping you won’t notice that it’s stolen most of the to-do list and hoarding all those tasks to dump on you! But good news, here’s how my latest client and I dealt with the chore hideout monster. S.’s words after we finished our “chase the chore monster out of hiding” session were, “Yay, all fixed - no more pushing through!” Which is exactly what I want for YOU. You’ve got this!

It's just time management, following through on your to-do list, using your time buckets like crazy, and delegating something. Lots of somethings. That’s how it’s all “fitting in” for them. Which means you can do it all, too. We’re going to leverage the twin turbochargers of time blocking it all out plus outsourcing everything that DOESN’T necessarily have to be done by you. Because you’ve already gotten clear on your top priorities for this quarter and month. Which means you’ve p...

Because every mom deals with guilt. The only question is what that guilt’s going to be about. Using the frozen pizza one night instead of cooking from scratch for optimum nutrition?Letting your phone play babysitter once too often?Not running a business to bring your gifts to the world? So let’s stop with this idea that the mere existence of you having mom guilt as a CEO mother means you’re doing something wrong. We all do. The question is what you make of it. What you do in ...

If you’ve got a ton of stuff going on, you have to be way more strict about holding yourself to pre-determined timelines and boundaries for when you have to shift tasks. Because all you need to do is firmly wall off your creative work time – no Slack messaging with clients allowed! - and give yourself the ironclad “only do this” boundaries your brain needs. And poof, your copy gets written and your launch assets are back up and your big project is already checked off. So here’s how to d...

You feel like your schedule isn’t properly in order (except every time you DO try to tweak your schedule, you always end up ditching it for some reason or other), and you’re having a hard time prioritizing your own business needs over you...

Am I seriously supposed to act like I’m Elon Musk and just live at the office, only popping out every now and then to see my husband and kids and go to church, and meantime tell them “I’m working to secure your future” and have that be my workaholic guilt-free card whenever they ask about me? Is the only alternative to this level of die at your desk, like Ann Keaney says, to pull way back to side-hustle-$30k-a-year mode, and give up on ever growing my business? No. You get whatever you ...

You’ve heard about cycle syncing by now. But you’re thinking, is it really going to be the be-all end-all if I just track a few dates and add an extra calendar app thing? How much does this actually affect my energy levels and work output day to day?

“No client calls while the kids are awake” is your general rule, but…. This one time the sales call can’t be moved, and your preschoolers aren’t in bed yet (teeth brushed though!), leaving you uncertain how this call’s going to go on top of your ordinary “am I being a good mom if I block them out” worries. (You know what the “good business owner” answer is - you take the call with everyone quiet in the background - but what you aren’t sure of is whether that’s doing a disservice to your...

Sometimes, when we’re all gung ho about transformation, we think it’s going to be “zap and we’re done.” But sometimes change isn’t like that. Sometimes you have to decide to do the thing, believe differently about yourself or your business life, and start acting like it’s true for you when you’re still feeling uncomfortable about it. You’re not fully bought in yet. But you still have to do the actions as if it is. Because that’s how you’re going to get there, to that 100% em...

Because what you really want is to be able to close down your laptop and put a clear end to work every. Single. Day. But your reality is that you never take time off from your to-do list, because you said you’d quit when it got crossed off, and people keep adding tasks to your plate! Like what this client told me: It's all the little 5, 10, and 30 minute tasks that need to be done. I am getting the big important things done, but then there is so much other stuff that just seems never ending! ...
