Stop Letting Your To-Do List Boss You Around! 📝🤦‍♀️


Hello Reader,

When the world shut down and went virtual, I had to learn—fast—how to prioritize my time. Suddenly, everything was happening at home, all at once, and it felt like there weren’t enough hours in the day to manage work, life, and everything in between. Let me tell you, figuring out how to make my time work for me wasn’t easy, but it was a game changer once I got the hang of it.

Recently, I’ve been working with several new leaders who are facing a similar challenge. They’re juggling endless to-do lists, constant interruptions, and non-stop questions. By the end of the day, they’re exhausted but still feel like they haven’t accomplished anything meaningful.

They’ve told me, “I don’t have time to be strategic—I’m just trying to survive the day.” Sound familiar?

The Grind vs. Alignment

Here’s the thing: letting the day “just happen” to you is a sure way to stay busy—but not productive. The grind keeps you running in circles, but alignment moves you forward.

When you align your time with your priorities, you create space for what matters most. And yes, that includes being strategic! But it takes intention, focus, and the willingness to say no to the distractions that steal your time.

Take control of your time (and your career)

If you’re ready to step out of the grind and into alignment, I’ve got something for you:

Hello Reader, As the year winds down, I’ve been feeling especially grateful. Every week, you let me into your inbox. Into your real life. And that’s not something I take lightly. Your attention is one of the most valuable things you have, and the fact that you choose to spend a few minutes here, reading what I share, means more than I can put into words. I started writing these emails because I wanted a more intentional kind of space. One that felt thoughtful, honest, and grounding. Somewhere...

Hello Reader, I’ve been thinking a lot lately about what it means to be “strong.” Not the kind of strong people compliment you for when you’re holding it all together, but the kind of quiet strength we carry when we feel like we can’t fall apart. I’ve lived that version of strength a few times.The version where you smile, show up, push through, and say “I’m fine” when you’re not.The version where you show up with grace while privately juggling doubt, exhaustion, and the weight of...

Hello Reader, I get burned out too! I want to share something real with you today. You know I spend my days helping women break through burnout, find clarity, and step into the next level of their leadership. But recently, I’ve had to take my own medicine. Between my move to Oklahoma, heavier demands at my corporate role as I developed a full leadership development program, the heartbreak of losing a beloved pet, and the never-ending push to “keep creating,” I found myself completely drained....
