    091 - Time Management That works for Your Brain with Lauren Glynn

    Episode 91: Time Management That Fits Your Brain with Lauren GlynnWhat if your time management wasn’t a rigid system to force yourself into—but a flexible framework that works with your energy, your season, and your actual life? In this episode, I’m joined by time management and productivity coach Lauren Glynn to talk about building sustainable structure as a creative, testing your “ideal week” instead of guessing, and making small shifts that unlock real momentum. We dig into how to recognize misalignment (busy but not effective), why tracking your time honestly is the first step to change, and how to design your calendar around your energy patterns instead of defaulting to what everyone else does. Lauren shares her BREK Framework (Baseline, Record, Evaluate, Keep practicing), along with her “Hell Yes Task Sorter” approach to clarify what you should keep, automate, delegate, or drop. We also talk about experimenting with meeting days, protecting creative focus time, and adjusting your systems by season so you’re not burning out in the busiest months. If you’ve tried every planner and still feel behind, this conversation will help you build a simple, repeatable rhythm that actually supports your business and your life.

    087 - The three fears holding you back and how to overcome them

    If there’s something you want — a dream, a vision, or a next step in your business — but you keep hitting a wall, this episode is for you. Because sometimes the thing standing in your way isn’t strategy… it’s fear. In this episode of the Take Your Shot Podcast, I’m walking you through three of the most common fears I see over and over again — in my own life, in my students, and in other creatives trying to build something meaningful. Each one can be sneaky. They show up as procrastination, people-pleasing, perfectionism, and overthinking — and they often disguise themselves as being “realistic.” But when you name them, you can move through them. We’ll talk about what these fears sound like, how they show up, and practical ways to move forward anyway — because you don’t have to be fearless to take action. You just have to start.

    085 - The $8,000 Booking I Turned Down (and What It Taught Me About Integrity)

    In this episode of the Take Your Shot podcast, I’m sharing the full story behind the $8,000 wedding I turned down. Not because it wasn’t good money. Not because I didn’t need the booking. But because it wasn’t aligned—and saying yes would’ve compromised the client’s experience, my values, and the kind of business I want to run. We talk about how to trust your gut, how to navigate uncomfortable client conversations with kindness and professionalism, and what it looks like to serve with integrity—especially when the stakes are high. If you’ve ever second-guessed a boundary or wondered how to stay client-first without getting walked over, this episode is for you.
