1204: Productivity Beyond Hacks: Breaking Free from Just-in-Time Living With Megan Sumrell

"I didn't realize my life had gotten to a point where I couldn't even answer a simple question of what I do for fun."

Discover the wake-up call that transformed Megan Sumrell's relationship with time—and how it can change yours too.

Heather sits down with Megan Sumrell—time management expert and creator of The Pink Bee planning system—to unpack why traditional productivity advice fails women, especially mothers, and what actually works instead.

Listen in as Heather and Megan discuss:
🩶 Why the "must be nice" reaction to others' success hides what we truly want for ourselves
🩶 The connection between time, energy, and financial resources—and why you can't address one without the others
🩶 Why being honest about outsourcing and support is crucial for authentic conversations about productivity

Whether you're feeling trapped by your to-do list, curious about creating more time wealth, or tired of "hot mess express" culture, this episode offers practical wisdom for reclaiming your time and energy on your own terms.
