Do you feel like your days slip away before you ever get into a state of true focus? The problem might not be time—it’s energy.

In this episode of Productivity MD, we dive into the concept of energy arbitrage—mastering your chronotype, aligning your day to your natural rhythms, and using intentional flow blocks to get more done with less struggle.

You’ll learn how to identify your personal peak zones, build two daily flow blocks, and even optimize what you eat to sustain deep focus. By the end, you’ll have a roadmap to hit your goals while still making time for yourself.
