Lauren Oshman, CEO of Vestia Personal Wealth Advisors, shares how tracking her time revealed tasks she was holding onto simply because she always had, not because they matched her CEO role. Her insights show that effective leadership isn't about doing everything but about deliberately choosing where to focus your energy and letting go of tasks that don't align with your highest priorities.

In this episode you will learn how:

• "It's physically impossible to do all the things" - giving leaders permission to be selective with their time

• Creating pie charts to visualize time allocation reveals patterns and misalignments

• Letting go of tasks that no longer match your role frees energy for higher-level work

• The Eisenhower Matrix helps categorize tasks by importance and urgency

• Identifying just three priorities each day protects focus and drives meaningful progress

• Leaders must protect time like the valuable currency it is

• Track your time for 1-2 weeks to discover where you're adding most value

• Ask yourself: "What am I holding onto just because I've always done it?"
