  Why Your Big Goals Never Get Done 15.09.2026 18мин

  All I wanted to do was finish my daughter's baby book. Months 11 and 12 of her first year of life were the only thing left, maybe eight pages, and I wrote it on my list almost every other week for three years. It never got done. But you know what did get done? Just about everything for everybody else. I know you have one of these. It's the project that needs a free weekend, or two full days, or a few months of real effort. You can look at your calendar two months out and see wide open s...

  Planning Has Nothing to Do With the Plan Going "Right" 08.09.2026 19мин

  I teach planning for a living, and almost nothing I mapped out for this summer actually happened the way I planned it. Since the middle of June I have been on 22 airplanes. Three of those trips were booked with about 48 hours notice, and three separate times I had to disappear from work completely and hand this business over to my team. From the outside, that probably looks like a planning expert whose planning failed. And if you have ever watched your own plan go up in flames and thought "wh...

  Confidence Is a Habit You Can Build with Dr. Cindra Kamphoff 01.09.2026 32мин

  If you have ever decided you're just not a confident person, this episode is going to change how you think about that. My inner critic gets real noisy sometimes, and I'm guessing yours does too. I hear this from women constantly, that you either have confidence or you don't, and if you don't, that's just your lot. Dr. Cindra Kamphoff is here to tell us that is not how it works, and what I loved is that she didn't just tell me confidence is something I can build. She handed me the tools to do ...

  Why Delegating Never Makes You Less Tired 25.08.2026 17мин

  Every household has one: the person who knows when the prescriptions are running low, when the pet food is almost out, which kid has a field trip on Thursday, and when the car is due for an oil change. That person is "the glue" and it's a job that never came with a job description. The advice we all get is to ask for help...delegate, get something off your list. So you do it, and somehow you feel exactly as heavy as you did before. In this episode I am breaking down the difference betwe...

  Three Systems for a Calmer Back to School 18.08.2026 18мин

  It's back to school season, and if you're the one in your house tracking every form, portal, email, and schedule change, you already know what's coming. All that information lands at once, and it turns into chaos fast. That first week or two back is overwhelming for two reasons: a huge amount of change hits all at once, and it's a total shift from your summer atmosphere to your school year atmosphere. In this episode, I'm sharing three systems I put into place every single year to get ahead o...

  Teaching Your Teen to Cook with Katie Kimball 11.08.2026 31мин

  Time management, planning, cooking. These are fundamental life skills that we don't get taught in school, and if we're honest, not always at home either. Today I'm bringing back one of my favorite guests to talk about the one we haven't covered yet: teaching teens how to actually cook, not just survive on cereal and takeout. Katie Kimball has been teaching families how to cook for 17 years, and she just launched an entire new program built specifically for teens. I wanted her back on the show...

  The Four Levels of Planning That Actually Help You Accomplish Your Goals 04.08.2026 19мин

  Think back to January. You set some goals for the year. Now be honest, have you made any real progress on them? If that question stings a little, you're not alone, and it's not because you picked the wrong goal or lost your motivation. It's because most of us were never taught the planning structure that actually holds a goal together past March. In this episode, I'm breaking down the four levels of planning that work together to carry your goals through the entire year, starting from the gro...

  Treat Your Bank Account Like Your Calendar with Mike Michalowicz 28.07.2026 31мин

  You've heard the dreaded B word. Budget. Maybe you've never found one that actually sticks or maybe you're the opposite, and you feel pretty on top of your money already. Either way, this episode is going to shift how you see it. I first found Mike Michalowicz back in 2019 when I read Profit First, and it completely changed how I manage the finances here at The Pink Bee. So when his newest book, The Money Habit, came out, I devoured it. This one applies those same principles to home finances,...

  What I Know Now at 53 That I Wish I Knew at 33 21.07.2026 23мин

  Last week I turned 53, and I've found myself sitting with the lessons that took me decades and more than a few hard moments to truly understand. These aren't quick tips or things I read somewhere. They're the truths I learned by living them, the ones that eventually became the foundation for the work I do and everything I now teach women about their time and their capacity. This episode is a little different and a lot more personal than what I usually share. I'm opening up about five of these...

  Routines, Habits, and Why You've Been Getting Them Mixed Up 14.07.2026 18мин

  Most people think the goal is to turn all their routines into habits. That belief is quietly wrecking a lot of good routines. I've been hearing this come up over and over in my community, and I finally had to address it head-on. So many women are beating themselves up over something that isn't even a real measure of success. In this episode, I'm clearing up the confusion between routines and habits once and for all, and sharing why the answer might completely change how you feel about the rou...

  The Truth About Following Someone Else's Morning Routine 07.07.2026 19мин

  If you have ever tried the 5 AM Club or the Miracle Morning and felt like you failed at it, this episode is going to feel like a deep breath. So many of us have downloaded the perfect morning routine, set the early alarm, committed to the exact sequence of activities, and then watched the whole thing fall apart within a week. And when it falls apart, we do not blame the routine. We blame ourselves. In this episode, I am breaking down the 5 AM Club, where it came from, and the one detail about...

  What Smart Women Get Wrong About Delegation with Emily Morgan 30.06.2026 28мин

  Most of us have tried delegation. We've handed things off, watched it fall apart, and quietly decided it's more trouble than it's worth. Emily Morgan has spent nearly 20 years studying exactly why that happens and what the people who actually crack it are doing differently. Emily is the founder of Delegate Solutions, a fractional executive assistant company, and author of Let It Go (2nd Edition, out July 23rd). She brings real frameworks to this conversation, not just the mindset piece, but a...

  The Part of Productivity AI Can't Give You 23.06.2026 18мин

  The noise around productivity has gotten really loud lately, and I think a lot of it has to do with AI. There are apps, tools, and technology promising to 10X your output, and every corner of the internet is telling you how to squeeze more into your day. But what if that constant push to produce more, faster, is actually making you worse at the very thing it's claiming to help you with? In this episode, I'm breaking down why two of the most important types of productivity are being completely...

  Why Eat the Frog Is Setting You Up to Fail 16.06.2026 18мин

  You've probably heard the productivity advice that says you should tackle your hardest task first thing in the morning. Eat the frog, they call it. Get the big, heavy, ugly thing done before you do anything else, and the rest of your day is downhill from there. Sounds great. Except... what happens when life lands in your lap before you ever get to the frog? If you've been trying this method and quietly wondering why it's not working for you, this episode is going to be a relief. I couldn't ma...

  Breaking the Busyness Cycle Before You Pass It to Your Kids 09.06.2026 29мин

  I know we've talked about boundaries on this show before. But this conversation? It went somewhere I really wasn't expecting. My guest today is Alex Lianne Carter, a master certified neurocoach, educator, and children's author who burned out, rebuilt her life one small decision at a time, and eventually packed up her family and moved to Panama. When Alex reached out to me about coming on to talk about boundaries, I sat with it for a minute because the angle she brought was one I hadn't heard ...

  4 Hidden Costs of AI That Are Stealing Your Time 02.06.2026 21мин

  Everybody's telling you AI is going to save you time, but nobody's handing you the full picture. I'll be upfront: I use AI every single day. It is a real, genuine part of how we run The Pink Bee. This is not a "AI is bad" episode. But I have been watching the conversation around AI get louder and louder, and something critical keeps getting left out of it. Because everything on this podcast is about time management, organization, and productivity, I felt like I had to say something. In this e...

  Ditch Money Overwhelm with Linda Grizely 26.05.2026 34мин

  If you've been hanging around here for a while, you know we talk a lot about time. But here's something I've noticed over and over again with the women I work with: once they start getting out of overwhelm with their time and their physical space, a third area starts showing up. Money. That's why in this episode, I brought personal finance expert and financial wellness speaker Linda Grizely onto the show. Because money overwhelm is real, it's connected to everything else on your plate, ...

  Teaching Your Kids Time Management Before the Next School Year 19.05.2026 26мин

  If the end of the school year is feeling like a highlight reel of forgotten deadlines, last-minute store runs, and late-night stress in your house, it's worth asking why this keeps happening, because it's probably not the first time, and without the right tools in place, it won't be the last. We drop kids into a system that goes from one teacher and one classroom straight to seven different teachers, seven different styles, and seven different ways of assigning work, and then wonder why every...

  How I Plan My Entire Summer Around Two Types of Days 12.05.2026 21мин

  Summer is coming, and if you've got kids at home, you already know the tension: you want the lazy pool days AND you need to get things done. This episode is the system that makes both possible. I'm revisiting one of my all-time favorite summer planning tools: A days, B days, and C days, and this year I'm going deeper than I have before. I'm also sharing the extra layer that business owners especially need to hear: how to figure out your true "have-tos" before summer hits so you're not scrambl...

  A 3-Stage Plan for Moms to Stop Dreading Summer with Erin Port 05.05.2026 30мин

  I have a total love-hate relationship with summer. I am always so ready for it to come, ready to ditch the alarm clocks and the get-ready-for-school morning routine, ready for more freedom and less structure. And then halfway through I find myself craving the structure back, caught in this endless tug of war between still having a company to run, wanting time for myself, and also actually enjoying summer with my daughter. I brought Erin Port on the show because she has a framework for summer ...
