My purposeful approach to productivity​
As a productivity coach, I understand the unique challenges women face in balancing responsibilities while navigating a productivity culture steeped in capitalist and masculine values. The pressure to constantly work harder, longer, and faster often leads to burnout and decreased productivity, leaving us feeling overwhelmed and disconnected. That's why I take a different approach.
​
I believe in redefining productivity to encompass self-care, creativity, and rest, alongside traditional measures of output. It's about finding purpose in our work and aligning our actions with our values and goals.
By prioritising practical steps, realistic expectations, and achievable progress, we create a more balanced and fulfilling work-life balance.
My coaching revolves around designing a life you don't want to escape from. I don't teach a one-size-fits-all approach or push you to conform to masculine ideals of productivity.
Instead, I guide you to discover your unique path, integrating purposeful productivity principles that nurture your well-being and empower you to lead a better life. Together, we'll find ways to create space, reduce stress, and foster a sense of fulfilment that allows you to thrive in all areas of your life.
If you're incessantly busy, feeling burnt out and dropping balls, it's time to assess your productivity.
What does a purposeful life look like to you? When you start aligning your work with your values and the vision you have for your life, everything changes.
It's time to shift from simply keeping busy to living a life on purpose. Let me guide you in finding that purpose so you can realign your productivity and experience the rewards of a balanced and fulfilling life.
​
You can regain control over your life, manage your priorities effectively, and reduce stress along the way. It's time to take charge and create a better balance.
