  • EP 19 | Time Blocks vs. Energy Blocks: Why Energy Blocks Beat Time Blocks Every Time
    Nov 26 2025

    We’ve all been told to “manage our time better,” but the truth is… time isn’t the real issue. Energy is.

    Your brain cycles through natural peaks and valleys all day long, and if you’re trying to force strategy work during a slump or do creative work when you’re drained, of course you feel burned out.

    In this episode, I break down the difference between time blocks and energy blocks, and why aligning your work with your body’s rhythm leads to better productivity, clearer thinking, and more sustainable leadership. We’ll talk circadian rhythms, flow states, how to track your natural energy curve, and how energy-based scheduling helps you move your vision forward without running yourself into the ground.

    If you’ve been craving more ease, more clarity, and more alignment in your workday, this episode is your permission slip to stop working like a machine, and start working like a human.

  • EP 18 | The One Meeting Ritual That Builds Trust: How Check-Ins Transform Leadership
    Nov 19 2025

    Most people don’t think twice about how they open a meeting, but those first five minutes? They shape everything...trust, tone, and whether people feel like humans or just task machines.

    In this episode, I’m sharing the one meeting ritual that builds trust faster than any team-building activity: emotional check-ins. A simple one-word “how are you arriving?” has the power to shift psychological safety, reduce tension, and help teams reconnect with their actual humanity.

    We’ll explore the psychology behind attunement, why emotional presence matters more than productivity metrics, and how tiny rituals regulate the nervous system. I’ll break down how to use check-ins with small, mid-size, and large teams, what to say if your team isn’t used to emotional expression, and how this one practice can transform your leadership, your communication, and the energy of your entire workplace.

    If you’re a leader, therapist, manager, wellness founder, or someone who wants to bring more heart into operations, this episode is for you. ⭐️ Book a free 15-minute chat → If you’re craving clarity, feeling stuck in overthinking, or just want a quick thought-partner moment to ground your next step, you can book a free 15-minute chat with me.

  • EP 17 | Decision Hygiene: How to Stop Overthinking and Lead with Clarity
    Nov 12 2025

    Part 1 of the Get Your Ops Together Mini Series: In this episode, I’m diving into something every leader struggles with, but rarely names out loud: decision fatigue.

    It’s not the big choices that drain us; it’s the constant stream of small ones: what to reply to, what to prioritize, when to rest, and how to lead. Over time, those small decisions chip away at your energy, your confidence, and your clarity.

    We’ll explore:

    • What decision hygiene actually means, and how it helps reduce overthinking
    • The psychology of decision fatigue (and why your brain has a daily “bandwidth limit”)
    • How to use a simple 3-day exercise to track your “absolute hell yes” and “absolutely not” choices
    • Why clear, consistent decisions build psychological safety and trust...for yourself and your team
    • How clarity creates confidence, and why your energy is your leadership’s greatest asset

    This episode blends organizational psychology, emotional intelligence, and practical strategy to help you protect your energy, strengthen your self-leadership, and start making decisions that feel deeply aligned with who you are and where you’re going.

    Because confidence doesn’t come from control, it comes from clarity.
