You're Doing Pomodoro Wrong // Simplify your To-Do List Part 01

Feeling overwhelmed by your endless to-do list? You’re not alone — but what if you’ve been tackling it all wrong? In this episode of The Business Edit™ Podcast, we’re diving into the Pomodoro Method — but not the way you’ve heard about it before. If you think Pomodoro is just about setting a timer for 25 minutes and cranking out as much work as possible, you might be missing the point (and the real productivity boost).
In this episode, I break down how to actually use the Pomodoro Method to avoid burnout, stay focused, and create a rhythm of work and rest that fits your life — whether you’re running a business, managing a household, or both.
You’ll learn how to adapt Pomodoro for longer, more creative tasks (hint: 25 minutes isn’t always enough), how to stack Pomodoros effectively, and why the breaks — not the work sprints — might just be the most important part of this strategy. Plus, I’ll walk you through planning active and passive breaks that actually recharge your energy and boost your focus — no more scrolling through Instagram and calling it a “break.”
Tune into this episode to discover a new, more effective way to work — one that’s flexible, realistic, and designed to help you stay productive without sacrificing your well-being. Hit play on The Business Edit™ Podcast now, and start simplifying your to-do list today!
