My guest today went from full-time business owner to full-time mom (with a business on the side), thereby forcing her to reduce her schedule by 90%. The most impressive is the fact that she decided to do this and still earn the same amount as she was before.

In this episode, we went over:

• How she prepared for this huge transition
• How she prepared her clients (hint - we talk about expectations and boundaries here)
• How automations can make your business feel warm, responsive, personable and help build your relationship with your clients (and work within the boundaries you set up)
• Her go-to tools and programs to make your life easier as a business owner (especially if you one day want to offer a course!)

This week I got to interview Whitney Catalano, intuitive success and alignment coach. I was so glad she could come on the show as she's a no BS, don't do what society tells you if it doesn't work for you coach which really resonates with me and is a perfect fit for this podcast.

Together, we chatted about

• How she got started as a dietician and her transition to what she does today
• How she built a business model that works for her and her brain
• How she helps her clients do the same - (ie using mini-experiments which we talk about in detail and that you can start applying for yourself)
• The first step to create a business that genuinely aligns + works for you
• How she organizes her own business and schedule as a creative ADHDer (hint: she's great at going with the flow)

When talking about being more productive, most people focus on how to focus better, how to get into focus faster, how to get more done and how to do it faster.

Except as it turns out, the most productive things you can do are the complete opposite of this, some might even consider them to be "unproductive".

In today's episode, I talk about

• how to change your definition of productivity to be more productive
• ways to systemize and implement more unproductive things 
• journal prompts to unpack your productivity mindset

...or beat procrastination.

At least - not right off the bat.

In this episode, I cover

• what you should do about it instead
• how to use it to boost your productivity
