What if just 15 minutes could make or break your day? 

We all have habits and routines that seem to last only minutes, yet end up influencing how our entire day unfolds. Those small, seemingly innocuous things we do that unwittingly either prime us for productivity, happiness, and success - or leave us uncentered, unproductive, and adrift.

Things like mindless scrolling or other unfulfilling habits first thing in the morning. What if deleting those 15 minutes of distraction allowed you to show up more present and positive for the rest of the day? On the flipside, what if intentionally choosing how you spend your 15-minutes gave you the mental Reset you needed to tackle work at your best for hours after? 

In today’s episode we’re digging into:

• What are the small daily habits or practices that have an outsized impact on our productivity and wellbeing?
• How can we identify the 15-20 minutes each day that make or break how we feel and function?
• Should we focus on adding positive habits and routines or eliminating negative ones that sabotage us?
• How do our daily habits prime us emotionally and psychologically for the rest of the day?
• With remote work, what have we lost from the transition away from commuting time and how can we substitute new rituals?

And we’re in conversation with:
