Let’s talk about that always growing, never ending “to-do” list.

Calendar Management I’m working with a client right now who’s juggling a lot: -Primary caregiver of two kids -Starting a new leadership role -In grad school -Building a passion project that could become a business It’s a lot. And it requires her to find time to do all these things without dropping the ball. And, she also has ADHD. She’s had coaching before through her employer’s contracted provider. But it was traditional coaching. Lots of open-ended questions with the goal of “uncovering your own solutions.” And like many of my clients, that approach didn’t work for her. When you’ve been trying to “figure it out” for decades and you’re still struggling, insight alone isn’t enough. That’s not how I work. I’m a teacher. I teach strategies that I think will help. We’ll try them out, reflect on what worked (and what didn’t), revise the system, and try again. And we’ll keep going until we land on something that works for you. So what are my clients working on? -A retired person burning out from a cause they care deeply about -Someone newly promoted and overwhelmed by meetings and competing priorities -A client with decades of therapy who still doesn’t feel emotionally regulated -“Successful” people who struggle with basic daily tasks -Professionals stuck at a certain level because of social or communication challenges -Employees on PIPs because traditional “in-house” coaching hasn’t helped Back to my client… The strategy we landed on? Make it visual. And consciously spend time looking at it. She hung three large calendars on her wall: one for work, one for school, one for personal life. And 2–3 times a week, she schedules a few minutes to do nothing except stare at those calendars. Just look. See what pops up. Her results? She says it almost feels indulgent, like a mini break (sounds lovely). And, she’s more aware of what’s coming up, she spots holes in her schedule to plan ahead, and she’s caught things she otherwise would have missed. (Like an appointment for her son she’s certain she would have forgotten.) If you’ve tried all the productivity hacks and nothing sticks, maybe it’s time to try something different. Coaching doesn’t have to be vague or abstract.  Let’s find what works for your brain. Schedule a free consult to see if coaching with me is the right fit.
