#27: Always Busy, Still Behind? Here’s What Actually Helps You Get Ahead
Tue Dec 23 2025
This is a real talk about burnout, scarcity mindset, and the quiet anxiety that comes from trying to beat time.
I unpack the biggest mistake I made with productivity and why “pushing harder” only made things worse.
You’ll hear the mindset reframe that helped me calm my nervous system without giving up ambition.
I also walk through the simple prioritization process I use when everything feels urgent and loud.
You’ll leave with clarity, permission to choose differently, and a calmer way to move forward.
