059: How to reclaim your time & energy - with Kate Northrup

The Simplifiers Podcast

It’s all about tapping into our inner feminine wisdom. Women run on a 28-day cycle, rather than the male 24-hour cycle. Instead of pushing, hustling, and grinding it out like men do, here’s how to do less, to reclaim your time and energy.

Let me guess… your day ahead is jam-packed with back-to-back meetings. You dart here, there, and everywhere, and you’re nervous about how to get it all done.

(Not to mention, when in the world are you gonna squeeze in lunch, amirite?)

Girl, I feel you.

But what if there was a better way?

My guest today is Kate Northrup, author of Do Less: A Revolutionary Approach to Time Management for Busy Moms.

Kate Northrup simplifies how to reclaim your time and energy, in a brand new way.

In this episode, you will learn:

• Why we as women (who own their own companies) tend to addict themselves to busyness

• How you can take back control of your schedule and start to set effective boundaries in your work and home life

• The four phases of a woman’s menstrual cycle, and what type of work you should focus on each week, to be most effective

• What the ‘Upward Cycle of Success’ is, and how it all comes down to four phases:
• • Emergence
  • Visibility
  • Culmination
  • The fertile void
  • • This might crop up when you’re on the journey towards launching a new project (a book, a product or a big sales push.)

In Kate’s book, there are 14 simple experiments that you can apply immediately in your life. We take a deep dive in to Experiment #4 (Check Your Vitals) and Experiment #7 (Simplify).

Kate shares a couple of simple, practical tips that will help you save time and boost your energy.

So, if you’re ready to get off the “I’m so busy” train, and want to have enough time for the things that matter most in your life, this one is especially for you. I’m here to tell you, it’s possible, and Kate is going to show us how.

It’s time to simplify!
