Template Hangover: A Weekend Notion Reset That Actually Sticks


Listen Later

If your Notion started out gorgeous and ended up as a junk drawer three weeks later, you’re not broken. You have template hangover.

In this episode, I break down why most Notion templates fail in real life, and I walk you through a simple weekend reset that makes your workspace usable again without downloading anything new. We start with a 10-minute friction audit to pinpoint what is actually slowing you down. Then we run the three decisions that fix the fit fast: Delete what does not make you faster, clearer, or calmer, Rename your databases and properties so your Notion systems speak your language, and Restructure around one anchor page, a daily flow, and one view your brain will actually use.

You’ll also hear my favorite relapse-prevention move: a “Not Right Now” page for all the shiny new Notion templates you want to try.
