Feeling overwhelmed and constantly behind on your to-do list? You're not alone.

In this episode of The Doula Johanna Podcast, I share how the book Working Hard, Hardly Working by Grace Beverley helped me shift my approach to productivity, energy, and joy — especially as a busy mother, doula, and multi-passionate woman.

You’ll hear:

💡 Why protecting your energy is more important than just managing your time

🌟 How I plan “Golden Days” and “Golden Dates” to avoid burnout and make joy non-negotiable

🧠 What the 4D Rule is and how it helps me stop doing things that don’t matter

🧘🏽‍♀️ The difference between deep work and maintenance work — and how I protect my creative flow

Whether you're balancing work, parenting, caregiving, or all of the above, this episode will help you rethink your weekly routine with more intention, structure, and softness.
