Managing Editor

"If only there were more hours in the day."

I used to say this to myself ALL the time.

I was convinced I just needed a little extra time to tackle my to-do list. 

Or a new planner to fine-tune my time management skills.

But no matter how many planners I purchased or how many all-nighters I pulled, nothing changed.

I still felt crushed by competing deadlines.

I cancelled plans last minute, because I had too much on my plate.

I woke up early.  I worked late.

I thought if I could just work harder, I’d get there.  I’d get it all done.

The higher-ups would be happy.  Which meant I could be happy, having finally received their approval.

Turns out . . .

You can't hustle your way to happiness.

Believe me . . . I tried.

Sound familiar? If so, here’s what I want you to know.

Through all of that trying, I learned something they don’t teach you in law school.

The solve for stress? 

It isn't TIME management.

It’s MIND management. 

That’s right.  You don’t need a new planner.  You need a new plan.  

One where your well-being, not your work-load, gets to be the top priority.  

Sounds impossible?  It’s not.  I’ll show you.  

I work solely 1-on-1 with attorneys who are over the overwhelm.  

I help them start living lives with less stress and far more fulfillment. 

If you're ready to start living that life, let's get started.
