I spent months avoiding a big project, not because I wasn’t excited about it, but because I kept falling into a sneaky productivity trap: procrastiworking.

In this episode, I’m getting real about how I let a major project sit on the back burner for way too long, even though I genuinely wanted to get it done. Instead of tackling it, I kept choosing “easier” tasks that felt productive but weren’t actually moving the needle. Sound familiar?

I’m sharing what finally snapped me out of that cycle, how an unexpected conversation with ChatGPT gave me the clarity I didn’t even know I needed, and the surprisingly simple shift I made in my daily schedule that’s now helping me get more done with way less stress.

If you’ve been curious about using AI for weekly planning, I’ll show you how I spend just 15 minutes each week mapping out my time using a mix of AI tools and Notion. This approach helps me protect my best brain hours and actually finish the things that matter most.
