Welcome to the very first episode of my new podcast series: Unsolicited Productivity Advice You Didn’t Ask For — aka me sliding (ew) uninvited into your ears with chaotic voice note energy and helpful strategies for navigating the season of life you’re in.
This week’s question came from a mum of two small kids, running a 1:1 client business, trying to build a group program, sleeping approximately four hours a night, and trying her little heart out to make her one big goal happen.
Here’s what we get into:
⏳ Traditional productivity advice and why it fails mums, creatives, and actual humans with actual lives
💡 Why reframing your year into 10-week blocks could be your burnout-proof business breakthrough
🌿 How to stop managing your time and start managing your energy🧠 The ONE question that can shift you from “maybe I’m not cut out for this” to “maybe I’m just chasing a goal that doesn’t fit my season”
🎨 And why you need to do one gloriously unmonetised, joyfully useless thing every week (and no, it’s not Canva)
If you’ve been feeling like your dreams are one nap-time away from extinction, this ep is a cosy, compassionate reminder that the problem isn’t you — it’s the expectations you’re trying to meet in a life that doesn’t fit them.
