How you plan your calendar can either lead to increased productivity or burnout. In this episode, Megan shares 5 things to put in your calendar for a balanced week and how to avoid work backlogs.

If you want to maintain a healthy work-life balance, it's essential to start your calendar planning with self-care, downtime and family time. While it might seem counterintuitive to prioritize non-work related activities, if you plan on constantly working, especially at unrealistic times and without quality breaks, you'll risk low levels of motivation, productivity and potentially burnout.

Action Plan:

1 - Block out self-care and downtime for the following week before adding other items.

2 - Consider when and for how long you want to spend quality time with loved ones - plan dates or meetings with friends/family.

3 - Schedule regular time for life and work admin tasks on a weekly basis to avoid backlogs.

4 - Schedule calls and appointments on your calendar to avoid last-minute chaos and ensure preparedness.

5 - Once you've scheduled your self-care and admin tasks, block out time to work around other priorities.
