Welcome back to Honing In and a solo episode all about intentional time management. Today I’m discussing routine, rhythms, and rituals and sharing ways we can create more structure and freedom in our schedules.

Some of the topics I cover:

Conscious and unconscious approaches to time management
My own opening and closing routines for my days
How to reverse engineer a solution when you have an obstacle with your routines
Taking a rhythm approach based on your personal resources
How to use time blocking and timeboxing
Prompts to help you develop your own routines, rhythms, and rituals
