Struggle to focus because of anxious thoughts about everything you’re not doing? This episode covers five time management strategies that help reduce anxiety around your to-do list so you can focus, follow through, and finally relax.

Do any of these phrases feel familiar:

"What do I do when I get anxious about things I'm not able to do right now?"
“What do I do about the anxiety caused by focusing on one thing while other things wait in line in the calendar?"
"How do I overcome anxiety hindering my focus?"

Women wrote in asking me to address these issues. So, let's talk about it.

In this episode, I break down five practical strategies that help address the mental swirl, reduce stress, and give you more peace of mind around your time.

Whether you’re a working mom constantly interrupted by kids or a professional juggling back-to-back meetings, this episode will help you:

Understand why traditional time blocking may not be working for you (and how to fix it)
Reduce anxiety by trusting your calendar and planning system
Recognize when your workload is simply too much and how to deal with it
Match the right tasks to your environment and mental state
Let go of judgment when plans change (and why that’s a win)

You’ll walk away with actionable ways to manage your time with more calm and clarity—even when life is unpredictable.

** Disclaimer: I address these issues from the standpoint of anxiety as used in the general, colloquial sense – not a medical one. I'm not a medical and psychology professional – I just have a time management system that works for me and many other women and talk often with women describing these feelings. All that to say, take my input with that context.
