MCP085: Productivity Through Community Inside Gwen Lepard’s Get It Done Labs Experience
On this episode of the #MeetCoolPeople Podcast, I got to sit down with Gwen Lepard, someone I've not only worked with as a client for almost two years but also someone who has truly impressed me with her dedication to helping others stay focused and get important work done. Gwen is a dancer, author, speaker, mentor, and above all, a purpose coach for creative entrepreneurs, writers, and coaches. Today, she walks us through her journey from a challenging past to creating the “Get It Done Labs”—a community-based solution for people who struggle to work alone or stay motivated.
Gwen shares how her own experiences led her to study a variety of coaching modalities and ultimately develop a process that combines accountability, movement, and focused work sessions using the Pomodoro technique. I love her take on how group dynamics really fuel productivity for those who have trouble getting started or finishing projects by themselves.
Here’s what stood out in our conversation:
🎯 Key Takeaways:
- Power of Accountability: Gwen’s Get It Done Labs leverages the simple, yet powerful, act of saying your goal out loud to a group, which helps participants stay on task and finally get those nagging projects done.
- Structured Focus with Built-In Self-Care: The labs use a rhythm of work and break times (the Pomodoro method, tweaked for movement and real-life needs) so participants can focus deeply without burning out. Plus, Gwen brings in elements like dance and quick meditations during breaks.
- Community Support for Solo Work: For folks used to working alone (especially new solopreneurs), having a supportive group makes all the difference in actually making progress. And it’s not just about work; sometimes it’s about taking that much-needed nap, too.
- Real-Time Tracking and Reflection: Many participants, including service providers and authors, learn exactly how much time their tasks take… Which helps them price, plan, and pace themselves better in the future.
- Fun and Flexibility: Gwen keeps it light, structured, and fun, letting people find their groove whether they’re writing a chapter, managing admin work, or clearing clutter. Her labs make productivity feel far less lonely.
