About this listen

Ever had one of those days where you swear you’ve been “go, go, go” — but when you finally crash on the couch at night, you’re left wondering: what did I even get done today? Yeah, me too. Spoiler alert: it’s not because you’re lazy, it’s because your to-do list is kind of a liar.

In this episode, we’re pulling back the curtain on why those long, never-ending lists leave you feeling exhausted but not accomplished. I’ll share the surprising way your brain treats “buy milk” and “land that career-changing opportunity” like they’re the same thing (wild, right?).

We’ll dig into a sneaky trap you probably don’t even realize you’re falling into — and I’ll ask the question that stopped me in my tracks: are you really making progress, or are you just staying busy?

Oh, and there’s one simple, practical shift you can try today that might just change the way you look at your list forever. (Hint: it fits on a sticky note.)

So if you’re tired of ending your day feeling like you worked your butt off but have nothing to show for it, this one’s for you. Hit play now — your future self will thank you.
