Hot Seat Friday: Overcoming Procrastination & Creative Blocks to Meet Tight Deadlines | with Sara Shaw

In this episode, I give you an insider’s glimpse into the world of my Optimizer coaching & mentorship program and what we call the ‘Hot Seat.’ What you’ll hear today is a recording of an actual live session with an Optimizer student where on the Hot Seat we tackle various questions about career transitions, productivity, workflows, networking, burnout, habit formation, resumes and websites, and any number of other work or life challenges that students bring to the table as they navigate their own path towards success.

In the following hot seat session, community member Sara Shaw is struggling with getting writing notes done for a looming deadline. This brief discussion is loaded with actionable tips to build better habits specifically related to your creativity and the process of deep work that will help you manage your time more effectively so you can work efficiently while still balancing the rest of your life. We also tackle the often overlooked psychological barriers that cause her to procrastinate and feel insecure about her creative work. If you’ve ever struggled to get important creative work done, then you will find this an eye-opening conversation.
