Schedule a FREE Time Management Coaching Call! Are challenging goals inspiring growth and confidence? Or, are they perpetuating an unhealthy grind that will ultimately lead to burnout? Hey there, folks! Get ready for an insightful podcast episode that digs deep into the art of telling apart challenges that build you up from those that might be harmful. I'm thrilled to share personal stories, like my daughter's adventure at a ninja camp, to unravel the complexities of parenting and personal development. The big question we're tackling is how to recognize if a tough situation is part of your growth journey or a red flag for something unhealthy. I've got some nuggets of wisdom for you, like focusing on your progress gains rather than the gaps, and sidestepping the comparison trap. It's all about honing that skill to spot hope-inducing challenges and differentiate them from potential burnout triggers. Join me as we dive into deciphering between growth-oriented hurdles and signs that you might be pushing too hard. Let's navigate this fine line together and emerge stronger!

Welcome back to "Plan Goal Plan!" In this second part of the two-episode series, Danielle delves deeper into the delightful world of to-do lists, infusing joy and play into your planning process. Do you love making lists, but lately you find that you make the list and then promptly forget about it? Or you keep adding items to your list but you don’t get them done and now you feel all icky about yourself so you’ve just stopped making lists? Danielle's got you covered! In Part 1, we explored why to-do lists are crucial and discussed best practices to make them effective. Now, get ready for the fun part! Join us as we introduce three fantastic list types: the Ta-Da list, the To-Done list, and the To-Be list.  First up, the Ta-Da list celebrates your accomplishments, big and small. Second, the To-Done list captures what you do each day, instilling a sense of pride and motivation on challenging days. For those struggling with anxiety or self-trust, a To-Done list becomes a powerful tool to rebuild confidence, recording daily achievements and fostering encouragement. While To-Do lists keep us organized and focused, we propose going beyond actions and incorporating a To-Be list. Embrace the intention of being bold, focused, compassionate, or responsive throughout the day, elevating your mindset and emotional responses. Want to step off that hamster wheel and reclaim your time with ease? Listen in for proven techniques to manage your to-do lists effectively. Embrace the joy of celebration, the power of accomplishments, and the intentionality of being. Get ready to play, have fun, and take charge of your time. Tune in to "Plan Goal Plan" and transform your to-do lists into the ultimate productivity tool!
