Ever feel like you’re doing everything and still falling behind? Like no matter how many lists you make or how early you wake up, your calendar is still chaos — and your needs always come last?

In this episode, I sit down with productivity and time management expert Megan Sumrell — founder of The Pink Bee and creator of the TOP Framework — to talk about why most traditional planning systems don’t work for women… and what actually does.

We unpack how to reclaim control of your time without rigid schedules, color-coded overwhelm, or burning out by Wednesday. Megan shares practical, shame-free strategies that help you plan around real life — including the kids, the mental load, and all the curveballs that show up on a Tuesday morning.

Whether you’re juggling a business, a household, or just trying to feel like you’re not failing at everything — this episode will leave you feeling capable, seen, and ready to create a week that works for you.

✨ We talk about:

• Why women’s productivity struggles aren’t a personal failure
• The “uncertainty buffer” — and why it’s a weekly game-changer
• How traditional time blocking sets you up to fail
• The powerful shift from daily to weekly planning
• Why structure actually gives you more freedom (not less)
• How to stop procrastinating — without guilt

If you’ve ever looked around your home and thought, “Why can’t I get it together?” — this episode is for you. Whether you’re managing ADHD, feeling buried in clutter, or simply struggling to make your space work for you, you’re not alone.

In this episode, I sit down with Jessica McCabe — New York Times bestselling author and creator of the wildly popular YouTube channel How to ADHD — to talk about what it really takes to make your home ADHD-friendly… and why that matters so much more than you think.

We share the story of how I flew to Seattle and spent three days transforming Jessica’s home — from overwhelming chaos to a place of peace, function, and pride. But this conversation goes far beyond organizing tips. We dive into how clutter affects mental health, relationships, self-worth, and the infamous “ADHD tax” — and what happens when we finally set up systems that are built for how our brains actually work.

✨ We chat about:

• The emotional impact of living in constant clutter — and how it steals our time, joy, and energy
• Why traditional organizing systems often fail neurodivergent brains
• Jessica’s transformation from chaos and shame to calm and control (yes, in just 3 days!)
• The unexpected ways decluttering improves relationships, productivity, and mental health
• Practical, ADHD-friendly strategies that make staying organized actually possible
• Why organizing for your “worst day” is the secret to lasting change
