Too often, we go through our days reacting to things that come up, putting out fires, and running on the hamster wheel without knowing how we even got there or how to stop. While this is a well-meaning approach to get by, the result isn’t productivity; it's guilt and stress. There is a different, more effective approach where you work in a way that is best for you and that’s flexible for your current phase of life: intentional action. This week, episode 247 of the Positively LivingⓇ Podcast is about why being intentional is essential to being productive!
In this episode of the Positively LivingⓇ Podcast, I share how intentional action, rather than reactive action, leads to greater success and fulfillment and I offer you actionable steps to use this approach so you can boost your productivity and overall well-being.
I cover the following topics:
- Why traditional productivity advice is limiting and doesn’t work for everyone.
- What it means to take intentional action and the benefits of doing so.
- Practical steps to take intentional action focusing on what matters to you most.
Intentional action is a skill that takes time and practice to develop, but the rewards are well worth the effort. By embracing this approach, you can unlock your true productivity potential and create a life that aligns with your values.

Boysober
Have you ever wondered what life might be like if you stopped worrying about being wanted, and focused on understanding what you actually want? That was the question Hope Woodard asked herself after a string of situationships inspired her to take a break from sex and dating. She went "boysober," a personal concept that sparked a global movement among women looking to prioritize themselves over men. Now, Hope is looking to expand the ways we explore our relationship to relationships. Taking a bold, unfiltered look into modern love, romance, and self-discovery, Boysober will dive into messy stories about dating, sex, love, friendship, and breaking generational patterns—all with humor, vulnerability, and a fresh perspective.
