29: Organize for Calm

29: Organize for Calm

Can you relate to this?

The panicky sense of overwhelm that comes with deadlines looming or when you're preparing for a trip.

As I get ready for an overseas trip and a workshop, I'm feeling the pressure to get everything done before my calendar closes and I unplug and relax for three weeks.

This inspired me to share my strategies for tackling overwhelm through organization with you today.

In this episode, you'll hear why organization truly matters and how it can stop that overwhelm spiral. And it's certainly not about being perfect, but about creating systems that support you through your busy life.

Our brains are great at generating ideas, but they don't always take into account our physical energy or time constraints. Then we end up convincing ourselves we need to do a million things when it's simply impossible.

Here's what you'll learn today:

  • How becoming more organized can cure overwhelm in both the physical and digital spaces
  • Why taming the "perfectionist beast" can save you tons of time and energy
  • How simply identifying the source of overwhelm and naming it can lessen its grip on us
  • Practical ways to prioritize your to-do list so you can focus on what HAS to be done
  • My favorite time management technique from Mel Robbins, which works every time especially for the tasks I don't want to do (like bookkeeping)

Really, done is better than perfect in most of these situations. This episode delivers a hefty dose of compassion and some practical examples from my life as I hit record for this episode while my lengthy pre-vacation to-do list waited for me.
