Episode 39.5 - How to Stay Productive When Life Gets in the Way

In this mini episode Kathy talks about what happens when you can’t be productive. Because sometimes, life lobs a spanner (or an entire toolbox) into your well-oiled workflow. Whether its illness, caregiving, emotional overload - the sort of stuff that doesn’t fit neatly into a planner. Kathy shares her own tale of working through a slipped disc (spoiler: pomodoros + painkillers = unlikely productivity strategy), and reflecting on what real progress looks like when you’re not firing on all cylinders. You’ll also hear: – Why resting is productive (Stephen Covey would agree) – What David Allen says about feeling good about what you’re not doing – Tiny tools to keep you going when everything feels too much (hello, minimum viable productivity and the “I’m a human” list) If today all you’ve managed is listening to this? Write it down. That’s a win.
