About this listen

In this episode of the Women Who Lead and Sell, Aliya and Kelly engage in a thought-provoking conversation with Abigail, a time management expert who shares her journey of transforming her relationship with time following a life-altering event. Abigail discusses her unique approach to creating time, emphasising the importance of prioritization and practical strategies to combat the mental load many female founders face. Listeners will learn about effective techniques such as brain dumping, Friday planning, and understanding natural rhythms to enhance productivity. The episode also introduces the concept of body doubling, highlighting how collaborative work environments can boost focus and accountability. With personal anecdotes and actionable insights, this episode aims to empower women to reclaim their time and achieve a healthier work-life balance. KEY TAKEAWAYS Brain Dumping : To manage mental load effectively, start with a brain dump. Write down everything on your mind—tasks, worries, and commitments—without worrying about order. This helps clear mental clutter and allows for better prioritization. Friday Planning : Instead of planning on Sunday nights, which can lead to stress, dedicate time on Fridays to organize the upcoming week. This allows for a more relaxed weekend and prepares you for a productive Monday. Understanding Natural Rhythms : Recognize your own productivity patterns and schedule tasks according to when you are most alert and focused. Tailoring your work to align with your natural energy levels can enhance efficiency and reduce burnout. Dopamine Hits from Task Completion : Breaking tasks into smaller, manageable actions can provide a sense of achievement and trigger dopamine release. This positive reinforcement can motivate continued productivity and help maintain a balanced mental state. Body Doubling : Utilize the concept of body doubling, where working alongside others—either in person or virtually—can enhance focus and accountability. This collaborative approach can help mitigate distractions and create a supportive work environment. BEST MOMENTS "I tell them I create time, which can either make me sound really arrogant or like a Harry Potter kind of revamped version." "I learned to prioritise very quickly what we all think of, that's really important, that needs doing." "Time doesn't work like that anymore. COVID didn't care what time of the day it was." - HOST SOCIALS Kelly Quinn https://www.linkedin.com/in/caremetrics/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/caremetrics/ Aliya Musa https://www.linkedin.com/in/aliya-musa-ab209050/ https://www.facebook.com/aliya.musa.5/ https://www.facebook.com/aliya.musa.5/
