My guest today has managed to take something as banal as scheduling and time management and turn it into a self-discovery practice. In this episode, we talk about developing a relationship with time and scheduling that infuses your life with more of you, rather than forcing yourself into someone else's mold and filling your life with "shoulds" and supposed-to's. If you are ready to fill your time, calendar, and life with more of YOU, go to jessicasmarro.com to schedule a free call to get started.Also, If you haven’t already gotten your FREE digital copy of The Unblocked Journal, click HERE to grab one. Feel free to share this podcast widely if you think it might be useful to someone, and be sure to subscribe so that you don’t miss an episode.Also, please take a moment to leave a review.  Constructive feedback, ideas, and praise are welcome.Let’s Get Unblocked!FREEBIES TO HELP YOU GET UNBLOCKED:The Unblocked Journal Join My Free Do The Thing Community ABOUT TODAY'S GUEST:Chris is a certified coach instructor, master dance educator, and host of the podcast You Need A Coach B*tch.
