Are you an expert level procrastinator?

Do you often get to the end of the day having been incredibly busy, yet you've achieved very little?

Are you fed up of working really hard but not making progress?

If "yes" was your answer to any of the above, this episode is for you.

As someone who could win gold at the procrastination Olympics (which we know would never happen with all the procrastinators on the organising committee) I know exactly what it's like to be stuck in a rut thanks to the pesky habit of not getting to the important things that move life along.

Luckily, thanks to having to figure out a way to stop procrastinating, I can lift the lid on some easy to implement productivity hacks which I share in this episode.

Here's what you'll learn:

  • The benefit of taking time to shine a spotlight of awareness on your procrastination habit
  • The role boundaries play in never getting your stuff done
  • How stress adds to procrastination
  • The value of incentivising yourself to complete tasks
  • How to use a to-do list properly
  • Why multitasking is adding to your overwhelm
  • How and why you should take a time inventory
  • Why having a "why" is essential for motivation


With a busy schedule and some big goals to reach this year, I have had to hone my productivity skills and learn how to zap my procrastination habit so I can stay on track and I've become pretty damn good at it.

I also often end up supporting clients to do the same which is why I have created a fantastic new course to help you kick your procrastination habit to the curb in one week.
