Whenever I tell people that I’ve hired a professional organizer to unpack our boxes and put things away, one of the most common responses I get is, "Oh - I could never do that, I’m WAY too Type A." And I get it. Working with an organizer means giving up a little bit of control. But if you've got a lot on your plate, why not direct your Type A Talents where it counts? In this rebroadcast of Episode 73, I'm talking all this organizing with Sara Landry West, owner of South Coast Organizers. Sara has now unpacked my family and gotten us settled TWICE and I couldn't be happier with the results.
Listen in to find out the four steps to organizing anything, and some of the misconceptions I had about working with an organizer.

When we think of “productivity,” we usually think about getting more things done. Checking more off our to-do lists. But that’s not the actual definition of productivity — and it’s definitely not how we want to live our lives. In this episode, I talk about the real definition of productivity, why I want to reframe it to include priorities, and how you can actually decide what to work on next instead of just “doing more.”   SHOWNOTES for Episode 126

Finish lines come in all shapes and sizes. Graduating with your Masters. Buying a house. Getting a promotion. Launching a project. Getting that promotion. Working hard toward something big (or small) and crossing it off your list is an amazing feeling. But before you hit your stride, there’s ONE thing you need to set yourself up for success. Accountability. Find out why accountability is key, how your personality impacts your accountability approach, and where to find accountability that fits your life.

Mistakes get a bad rap, but they’re actually a pretty important part of our lives. Ideally, we make a mistake when trying something new, learn from it, and move on. Mistakes like, for example, trying a time management strategy without adjusting it to fit YOU, or buying a fancy planner with the hopes that it’ll ease your struggles. I’ve made these same mistakes, and I’ve learned from them. I took it one step further and created a new time management method that works with you, as well as your goals and values.
