116. Managing Overwhelming To-Do Lists and Prioritization

In this episode, we dive into the challenges of managing overwhelming to-do lists, especially for busy moms and neurodivergent individuals. We emphasize the importance of prioritizing tasks and offer practical strategies to help you focus on what truly matters.

I share my weekly planning process, which includes categorizing tasks based on urgency and importance using a matrix system. We chat about how to break down your to-do list and outsource or eliminate tasks that don’t contribute significantly to your goals.

Episode Highlights:

• Managing Overwhelming To-Do Lists: We discuss the importance of recognizing that it's impossible to do everything and the necessity to prioritize tasks that matter most.
• Weekly Planning Process: Learn how we clear our minds every week by jotting down all our tasks and appointments, and then using a matrix system (levels 1-4) to prioritize tasks that drive our business forward.
• Task Prioritization for Neurodivergent Brains: For those who struggle with keeping tasks in their minds, we explain how writing things down can help prevent overwhelm and ensure important tasks don’t get lost.
• Effective Task Management: We share our top three priorities strategy—focusing on the most critical tasks each day and leaving room for flexibility.
• Outsourcing and Delegating: We also discuss the benefits of outsourcing tasks that are urgent but not important, such as bookkeeping or certain emails.
