  • Plan Your Week Before It Plans You
    Dec 17 2025

    Does your week tend to fill up before you've had a chance to decide what actually matters? Too often, we move from meeting to meeting and task to task, reacting rather than choosing, and then wonder why the week felt busy yet unproductive. The problem usually isn't effort or discipline; it's that the week was never intentionally shaped in the first place.

    In this encore episode, you'll learn a simple, realistic weekly planning process that focuses less on perfect schedules and more on making better decisions with your time and energy. You'll discover how to choose the right moment to plan, identify your true priorities, and build a week that sets you up for small, consistent wins — even when life inevitably disrupts your plans.
