When we are constantly chasing success, it can be easy to lose sight of what's most important. Too often our identities get tied up with overachieving, which means we end up seeing our value and our worth through the tasks, projects and items checked off our to-do list.

How does the word spiritual relate to productivity? If we agree that the definition of productivity is doing work that matters, then the two are completed linked to one another: it's tied to the habits you do each day; the way you look at time management; and even the words you choose to describe what work means to you. In today's episode we're going to tackle questions like: How do I find meaning in my life? and How do I stop feeling like my job sucks? and I'll share some quick and easy ways to feel instantly better about your days.

Work life balance is the most Google searched productivity topic. We are constantly striving to achieve balance, when the truth is: We don't want a balanced life. The cost of greatness is commitment, which means sometimes leaning heavily into work and other times we need to lean more heavily into our personal lives. This consistent shifting, creates harmony (which translates into a lot more happiness than you'll ever find with balance!). In today's episode I talk about how to set the right goals--goals that are aligned and achievable. We also dive into how Star Wars teaches us what we need to know about balance (yes, we do!).

There's nothing magical about January 1. But somehow, there's always a lot of pressure that comes at the start of the new year. We start setting big goals and resolutions for the year, often to find that the fire has gone out before the month is even over. Stop setting New Years resolutions--they don't work. Let's choose to set up our year for success instead using habits and routines, creating systems that insure that we live with purpose.

In today's show we'll talk about habits, having a focus word for the year, and how we can all find more joy in our everyday lives.

Customizing a productivity system to fit your life sounds like a lot of work, but it's actually much easier than you think. People often depend on productivity hacks and tricks in an attempt to be more productive, but often find that they just feel busy. That's because productivity needs to be personalized to fit what works (and what doesn't) for you. In today's episode I'll talk about why you need to let go of the limiting belief that you need more focus, I share why we fill our overfill calendar and I share a strategy for creating your own productivity system using the 5Ps.

Do you ever feel like you haven't gotten enough done...even though you were busy all day long? Busy and productive aren't the same thing, but we often confuse the two. In today's episode we'll talk about why we pack our day too full and overschedule their calendars. I'll share how we can learn about productivity from Star Wars (yes, it's true!) and some strategies and techniques to make sure you focus on your priorities instead of getting off track.

What is normal? And why are we obsessed with being normal? Today's guest, Niro Feliciano would argue that "normal" often means overscheduling yourself, being exhausted and overwhelmed, spending too much time on your phone. Normal isn't necessarily healthy.

In this episode we are going to unpack the difference between happiness and contentment; we'll understand how pressure and stress can pack our to-do list full of tasks that we don't really want; and how we can start living with more intention.

We often think that we need to find meaning outside of our work. But if we are spending the majority of our day either working for or running a company, doesn't it make sense to connect our purpose with the work we do? Burnout is a very real, very pervasive feeling in our workforce today.

In today's episode I share that burnout isn't caused by overwork, it's caused by not finding meaning in your work. We'll talk about the two distinct functions of our jobs, how to align your team to work together and I share tips and strategies on how to connect your purpose with the work you do every single day.
