If you’ve ever felt like your calendar is running you instead of the other way around, this episode is for you. Ruthie sits down with Laura Davis—time management coach, mom, and founder of the Time Management Academy—for a real conversation on what productivity looks like for working moms in 2025.

With a background in research and her own lived experience navigating IVF, corporate chaos, and entrepreneurship, Laura has built a framework that works with your life—not against it. Spoiler alert: most time management strategies were built for men and simply don’t translate to the mental load and complexity moms carry daily.

Laura breaks down the four pillars of her time management method: principles, skills, mindset, and bandwidth awareness. Learn why paper planners alone aren’t enough, how to rebuild your time systems to support your actual life, and what it really means to create a calendar strategy that gives you space to breathe.

Whether you’re balancing corporate life, motherhood, or a growing business—this episode is your permission slip to stop doing it all and start doing it differently.
