This week I interview Nicole Coyne from Tikumu Consulting. Nicole works very closely with people – individually and in groups – developing their ability to either grow within their careers or their business as well as assisting with interpersonal skills development. Throughout her career, her work has consistently been orientated around training, people development, coaching, business operations and all areas of human resources. She believes that people are the most important asset in your business, from the CEO to the cleaner – if they are coached, guided, supported and looked after, they will in turn look after the business.

The 3 pillars are:

1. Business Strategy or career development 
2. Self development 
3. Self care

We talk about how Nicole manages her juggle of family, business owner, tutor and member of the business community. She shares her 3 pillars of goal setting and inspires us to set our goals for 2022.

In my book summary I talk about the book which completely changed my thinking of managing time and my career. 

The 4-Hour Work Week aims to give you more time and more mobility. These are two of the defining attributes of what Ferriss refers to as the “New Rich.” The New Rich have abandoned the deferred-life plan to create luxury lifestyles in the here and now, and Ferriss argues that you can too.

Ferriss states that people don’t want to be millionaires; they want to experience what they think only millionaires can buy. The question, therefore, is how can you achieve the lifestyle of a millionaire, without having a million dollars in the bank? Over five years, Ferriss set out to answer this question and has laid out the key to separating income from time. Consequently, ‘The 4-Hour Work Week’ is not about how to save, or about finding your dream job; it’s about how to free up the most time, and automate your income.

This week I am excited to interview Brad Aeon Assistant Professor at the University of Québec in Montréal. He specialises in the science and philosophy of time management. I first saw him in his TED talk (link below) and was blown away about his concepts.
Why do we think we can control time?
Why do we always say we have no time?
Where did these ideas come from?
In this interview Brad talks about the history and philosophies of time management and certainly made me think differently, I am sure he will for you too.

I trialled bullet journalling for 1 month and share my experience in this podcast. Bullet journalling or Bujo is an idea developed by Ryder Carroll who found himself using a multitude of notebooks. The bullet journal includes everything in one place so I gave it go to see if it could become a new productivity system.

I gave a mostly critical review of my experience and how it wasn't going to work for as I miss my digital systems.

In researching for this podcast, I watched a load of YouTube videos and Oh my! There are so many “experts” out there! Everything from minimalistic simple, digital, traditional and even holistic productivity, I learnt a lot, I learnt nothing then I just got very confused!

So this podcast looks into productivity systems; what they are, what do I use and how can I do it better. I am pleased that from my research I have found a few areas where I can improve, and I want to do this with you. But mostly I was shocked at how many different systems there are available!
