The panic is real.
Too many priorities, not enough time, and your brain is spinning instead of deciding.

This isn’t about doing it all, it’s about strategic triage: choosing what matters most so you can focus your energy where it counts. With AI as your thinking partner, you can cut through the overwhelm, sequence your priorities for maximum impact, and turn chaos into hours of focused wins.

In this episode of She’s That Founder, you’ll discover how to stop trying to do everything and start sequencing your priorities so you can make meaningful progress without burning out. You’ll see how AI can help you cut through emotional noise, spot the highest-impact tasks, and keep momentum when competing priorities threaten to pull you in every direction.

• The energy + ROI framework that keeps you from wasting focus on low-value tasks
