The SIGnature Podcast

If you've been debating if ClickUp was worth diving into or if it would be a good fit for you, this is the perfect episode for you!

I've used my fair share of task management programs over the years and ClickUp is the only one I've stuck to. 

In this episode, I go over all the features ClickUp has that make it perfect for my brain, how I've been able to customize it for my work and my brain and how I've set it up for myself!

People who know me today know me as someone who is really organized - but that wasn't always the case!

If anything, that's only been the reality for a few years now. It took some trial and error until I found exactly what helped me and how to apply it in everyday life. It's been a huge game-changer when it comes to 

• feeling less overwhelmed and anxious
• being more creative and a better problem solver
• Increasing my confidence
• Overall having more brainpower and capacity for more demanding or valuable tasks

If you implement any of the tips, tricks or systems I mention in this episode, screenshot this episode, tag me on Instagram @anneso.pelletier and let me know which parts you'll be implementing!

Those two words are sometimes used interchangeably but they couldn't be more different. One is an indicator of success while the other is a synonym to stress, overwhelm and scarcity.

In this episode, I go over why I hate it when people measure success by how busy someone is, how you can differentiate if you are being busy or productive and what might be keeping you busy.

Have you ever seen something you thought looked great on paper and then you really struggled to apply for yourself? That was time blocking for me.

After months of experimenting with time blocks, I finally managed to tweak it for myself and it has become one of my favourite things to stay organized.

One of the things I love is it gives every type of task a place in my week. I no longer feel super overwhelmed because only "today" exists in my head, I know have more days/weeks to get stuff done.

In this episode, I cover

• What time blocks are
• How to create them
• How I use Google Calendar to organize my blocks and my weeks
• How I tweak my weeks to fit that week's needs and capacity

Curious as to how you could set this up for your own business? Let's chat about it!

In this week's episode, I cover the 3 types of time, energy (and ultimately money) leaks you might have in your business.

Basically, our goal is to make sure your time and energy are put towards what matters to you - in or out of your business, because they make you happy or provide value to you, your clients, your community.

Listen to find out which is your biggest time leak (and the one you'll get the most bang for your buck if you fix it), and actionable steps to fix it.

It's not sexy but we need to talk about it - what can you do when you hit ADHD burnout? Or when you have so little creativity, energy or motivation in your business?

It's easy to be productive, feel confident and kick-ass when the wind is in your sails and you FEEL more motivated and have more capacity.

In this episode, I go over what you can do when it's not one of those days:

• What do you do if you're having an off day
• What do you do when that day turns into multiple days or weeks
• How to plan accordingly in your business
• Getting through each day
• Mindset tips
• What you can do in your personal life to support your work

And much more!

ClickUp is my favourite tool to organize and manage all the different areas of my business. From goal-setting to creating content, handling leads, working with clients and more. The challenging part though is how to set this all up in the first place so you can then leverage it.

In this episode, I break down the structure I set up in my ClickUp account and those of my clients along, how and why I set it up this way and how you can adapt this setup if you are using the free subscription.
