Today, I’m talking about my totally unglamorous but shockingly effective way of running a service-based business—without Notion, Asana, or a hundred “productivity hacks.” I walk through how I’ve built a repeatable, sustainable system using simple tools. If you’ve felt overwhelmed by all the “must-have” tools, you’re absolutely in the right place.

Key Takeaways:

• Let your calendar and inbox do the heavy lifting—no apps required.

• Build your business processes around what actually works for you, not what looks impressive on Instagram.

• Simplify whenever possible; sometimes, “ordinary” tools are all you need to thrive.

This podcast is for business owners who are tired of hustle culture and want relatable, honest conversations about running a sustainable business that actually works for their life.
