Episode 91: Sharing a breakthrough
Are you where you’d thought you’d be by this point in the year? If not, that doesn’t mean you’ve done anything wrong. It could just be that you had unrealistic expectations of how long this would take, and have been trying to do too much.
Episode 90: There’s no point planning, it’s almost summer!
As the days get warmer and summer approaches, it can be tempting to get a bit loosey-goosey with your planning. In this week’s episode I share why it’s even more important to be intentional about what gets your focus and what doesn’t during the summer. If you want to take a break, or if school holidays mean a change in routine and pace, you won’t want to miss this one!
Episode 89: Are you trying to do too much?
Are you where you’d thought you’d be by this point in the year? If not, that doesn’t mean you’ve done anything wrong. It could just be that you had unrealistic expectations of how long this would take, and have been trying to do too much.
Episode 88: Stuck in the weeds or head in the clouds?
Are you a dreamer with too many ideas and not enough time, or a doer who gets snarled up in busy work with no time to think? Either way, it’s not good for your productivity! Listen to this week’s episode to understand why you need both extremes to be working for you, if you want to move your business forward.
Episode 87: Are you a Barbara or a Margot?
What do you do when you have too much to do? Do you keep your head down, roll up your sleeves and crack on? Or do you take a step back first, and then dive in? In this week’s episode of Unfrazzle I introduce you to Barbara and Margot. Let’s see who gets more done!
Episode 86: Productivity 101
When people hear the word ‘productivity’, they usually think about to-do lists, scheduling, prioritising, planning. That’s all great, but those things are not the first step to being more productive. If you want to make sure you get the right things done at the right time, listen to this week’s episode to find out where to start.
Episode 85: Feeling stuck? Get disruptive!
Frustrating isn’t it? When you’re sitting at your desk with something important to do, but you’re just not feeling it? When that happens, you have a choice: stay put and push through, or mix things up a bit. Listen to this episode for ideas to help you get unstuck by getting disruptive. Then go be a rebel!
Episode 84: Is too much decision-making harming your productivity?
Even if you’ve never heard of decision fatigue, you’ve almost definitely experienced it. When you’ve spent all day making decisions about everything from what to wear, what to eat for lunch and which task to tackle next, it’s exhausting. By the end of the day, even the simplest of decisions - like what to watch on Netflix - can feel impossible. If that feels familiar, listen to this episode and find out what you can do about it.
Episode 83: Are you waiting for permission to stop?
When you’re up to your eyeballs in everything that needs doing day-to-day, the smallest thing can tip you over the edge can’t it? That’s why we need to stop, reflect and regroup from time to time. In this week’s episode I share some thoughts around what that can look like. If you’re waiting for permission, consider it granted!
Episode 82: What about the small things?
How many small things do you have on your to-do list that have been there for days? Weeks? Months? It’s easy to spend so much time working on big, exciting projects that the small but still impactful tasks don’t get a look in. In this week’s episode of Unfrazzle I invite you to consider how you’ll feel once you tick some of those small things off, and create space to get them done.
Episode 81: Reduce the scope, stick to the schedule
When life gets busy, we don’t always have time to do the things we know would benefit us. But what if you could reduce the scope of that activity, so that it still happens, but in a different, lighter way? Listen to this episode to find out how!
Episode 80: A simple way to stay on track
Sometimes I wonder if the ideas I share on this podcast are a little, well, simple. Today’s episode is firmly in that camp, as I share something you can do starting right now, to help you stick to your goals and follow through with your intentions. After all, productivity doesn’t have to be complicated!
Episode 79: Write a daily ta-da list
Are you the sort of person who gets to the end of the day and can’t stop thinking about all the things you haven’t done? If so, a daily ta-da list can help. Listen to this week’s episode to learn why that’s such a powerful thing to do at the end of the day, and give it a go yourself!
Episode 78: Rituals of completion
Do you jump from one thing to the next without pausing to shut things down and clear the decks? It’s no wonder we end up surrounded by chaos, is it?! Rituals of completion can help. Listen to this week’s episode to found out how, and create your own rituals to keep you focused, motivated and on track.
Episode 77: Pause, plan and prioritise your way to progress
Do you need space to think and make decisions about what to focus on in your business? If so, listen up! In this week’s Unfrazzle I share why that’s so important, and encourage you to consider how you can integrate those moments of pause into your life.
Episode 76: I couldn’t hear myself think
How do you know when you’re starting to feel overwhelmed, and what can you do to nip that in the bud? For me, it’s sensitivity to noise. This week I share what that looks like in practice, and why it’s so important to give yourself pockets of quiet.
Episode 75: Are you giving yourself enough time?
Ever realised you didn’t allow enough time for something, and then spent the rest of the day, week or month feeling behind, desperately trying to catch up with yourself? This week I’m sharing one simple thing you can do to prevent that from happening. After all, if you don’t allow yourself space to do the things that matter most, how will you ever move forward?
Episode 74: Are you willing to get uncomfortable?
When you work with your natural preferences, it’s so much easier to find ease and flow in your business. But if you’re not careful, holding on too tightly to what’s comfortable can prevent you from moving forward, limiting your growth. Tune into this week’s episode of Unfrazzle to make sure you’re not allowing your preferences to become limitations.
Episode 73: The thing we’ve all done to get organised (and why it doesn’t work)
I didn’t always feel as organised and on it as I do now. Back in the day, I was surrounded by chaos. Frantically juggling a bazillion things, desperately hoping nobody would notice I was drowning.
Listen to this week’s episode of Unfrazzle to find out how that all changed once I realised what was REALLY going on (and figured out what to do about it).
Episode 72: Piles of paper, post-its and panic (aka my past life)
I didn’t always feel as organised and on it as I do now. Back in the day, I was surrounded by chaos. Frantically juggling a bazillion things, desperately hoping nobody would notice I was drowning.
