About this listen

🎙Hey friends! Welcome to the Time for Living podcast, where we chat about how to be more intentional with our precious time so we can pursue our biggest goals and dreams while still having time to live our one truly amazing life. Do these common struggles resonate with you? Do you have amazing goals and aspirations but can’t find the time to make progress on what matters most? Are you overwhelmed with responsibilities, struggling to prioritize them, and feeling like nothing important gets done? Are you dreaming of a day when ’busy’ isn’t your default mode and you achieve everything you set out to accomplish? Do you feel the squeeze between work demands, family responsibilities, and personal aspirations? Are you juggling a million things and wondering when ’me time’ became a luxury? I’ve been there too – feeling overwhelmed and burnt out, with constant low energy, wishing for more hours in the day, and feeling like life was passing me by. Then, I discovered the magic of being intentional with my most important resource: time. By creating systems that aligned my time with my priorities and values, I was able to carve out space for what truly mattered. The weight lifted off my shoulders, and this holistic approach rippled into every area of my life. Every intentional decision increased my productivity and propelled me towards my life goals and dreams with an energy and drive like never before. I’m your host, Lucy Clarke – a devoted boy mom, dedicated business owner, and time freedom mentor. I created the Time for Living podcast for you because I want you to have the time freedom to pursue your ambitions and still make time for what truly matters. Together, we’ll uncover your purpose, goals, and true values, then create systems that align your daily time with these priorities. We’ll swap time-draining activities for time-efficient habits and routines that will move you toward your most important goals. We’ll dive into everything from finding clarity to creating aligned systems and consistent habits that enrich every area of your life. We’ll examine how you currently use your time and create action plans for how you want to spend it in the future. Expect transformative insights, actionable steps, lasting changes, and a community cheering you on. Stay tuned for the Time for Living Podcast. Get ready to find the time!

  • #56: 15 Minutes That Can Change Your Life
    Oct 28 2025

    What if those "useless" 15-minute pockets between school drop-off and pickup could actually transform your entire business and life? Most busy moms dismiss these fragments of time as too short to matter. But here's the truth: 15 minutes a day equals 91 hours per year—enough to write a book, launch a course, or build the business you've been putting off.

    What You'll Learn

    • How to turn 15 daily minutes into 91+ hours annually using simple math that will shift your entire perspective on "wasted" time
    • Why you quit habits in week two (and the exact psychological phase you need to push through to see real results)
    • The 5-second countdown technique that overrides your brain's resistance and gets you moving before excuses take over
    • How small actions create identity shifts that make success automatic instead of requiring constant willpower
    • What to do when your 15-minute habit gets boring (week 2-4 is when champions are made)

    By the end of this episode, you'll have a clear 15-minute habit selected, know exactly when you'll do it, and understand why consistency matters more than motivation.

    Featured Framework

    A systematic approach to building transformative habits in the time pockets busy moms already have, turning scattered minutes into compounding results.

  • #54: Stop Procrastinating and Start Doing: The Two-System Approach That Helps Working Moms Actually Get Things Done
    Oct 14 2025

    Feeling overwhelmed by the endless to-do list that comes with being a working mom and business owner? You're not alone. In this episode, we're tackling one of the biggest challenges my clients face: knowing where to start when everything feels urgent and nothing feels done.

    I'm breaking down why "doing the thing" is so much harder than it should be (spoiler: it's not laziness), and sharing the exact two-system approach that helped me reclaim an hour and a half per week just by removing decision fatigue. Whether you're drowning in home chaos or avoiding that one business task you know you need to tackle, this episode will show you how to create systems that work with your life as a working mom, not against it.

    By the end of this episode, you'll understand:

    • Why decision fatigue is draining your energy before you even open your laptop
    • The two-fold foundation you need to establish before any productivity system will work
    • How to create a Business Engine and Home Hub that automate your daily decisions
    • Why systems actually give you more freedom, not less (even if you love chasing shiny objects like me)
    • The one simple challenge you can implement today to start breaking the overwhelm cycle

    Ready to build the foundation that makes systems actually work? Grab my free workbook "Taking Control of Your Time: 3 Simple Steps to Master Intentional Time Management" at timeforliving.co/takingcontrol. You'll get clear on what truly matters to you, see where your time is really going, and create a strategic plan that aligns with your goals.

    The only thing that is doing the thing is doing the thing. Stop waiting for the perfect moment, the perfect system, or the perfect plan. Start with one task, one time block, one decision removed from your plate. Your future self is counting on you to take that first step today.

  • #53: Why October is Your Secret Advantage as a Mom Entrepreneur (Start Before the Holiday Chaos)
    Oct 7 2025

    Stop putting your business goals on hold until January. In this episode, we're flipping the script on when you should actually start working toward your 2026 vision. Spoiler: it's not when the new year hits and you're exhausted from the holidays. It's right now, in October, when you still have breathing room before the chaos begins.

    If you're a working mom building a business in the margins of your life, this conversation is for you. We're talking about why waiting for January is costing you more than you think, and how the next 90 days could completely transform how you show up in the new year.

    By the end of this episode, you'll understand:

    • Why 23% of New Year's resolutions fail within the first week (and why January is actually one of the hardest times to start)
    • The psychological advantage of starting now instead of waiting for "perfect" timing
    • How to use October and November as your testing ground so you hit January with momentum, not overwhelm
    • Practical strategies for making progress in fragmented time (naptime, school hours, after bedtime)
    • The real cost of postponing your goals - it's not just time, it's confidence and identity
    • How to break down big goals into small actions that work with your actual mom life schedule

    Ready to take action?

    Grab the free Taking Control of Your Time workbook at timeforliving.co/takingcontrol. It walks you through the exact three-step process I talk about in this episode: reflecting on your priorities, auditing where your time actually goes, and creating a strategic plan that works for working moms.

    Your dreams don't need perfect circumstances, they need you to start. Don't wait until your life calms down, because this is your life, right now. Take the first step today, and three months from now, you'll be so glad you did.
