You're doing so much—constantly moving, managing, showing up—and yet, at the end of the day, it still doesn't feel like enough. You feel behind.
Here's why: You're using a to-do list.
To-do lists seem helpful, but they actually keep you stuck in never-enough energy. Your brain can't visualize how long each task will take, so the list always feels unfinished—even when you've been nonstop all day. And because there's no true benchmark for "success," you end your day feeling like you failed, even when you did so much right.
In this episode, I'm sharing the real problem with traditional to-do lists, why they're hurting your mental load, and the exact system I use instead. You'll learn how to plan your day with intention—not pressure—and why making this one change has been life-changing not just for me, but for so many of the moms I coach.
This isn't about doing less. It's about finally feeling good—proud, present, and peaceful—no matter how much you do.
If you've ever ended the day feeling like you didn't do "enough"… this episode is going to change everything.
