Your calendar is beautifully organized—color-coded time blocks, daily themes, maybe even a “CEO day” carved out just for strategic work. But somehow, you always manage to fall off your schedule, so every week still feels chaotic. If you’ve tried time blocking and it’s not working for you, you’re not alone. You’re planning your time, but ignoring your energy. Listen in and learn how to switch to a more flexible, energy-aware way of planning your week that actually fits your real life.

If you’re stuck in a schedule that looks good on paper but isn’t getting you where you want to go, I can help. I work with small business owners who are ready to ditch the chaos and run their business with more clarity, focus, and intention. If you'd like to get started, book a 1-hour Focus & Freedom Coaching Call where we'll discover the bottlenecks in your business and make a sustainable plan for growth. https://tidycal.com/ceoamplify/focus-and-freedom-roadmap-session

Imagine it’s midweek, and you glance at your to-do list only to realize most things are still undone. Maybe a client canceled last minute, unexpected fires popped up, or your energy just vanished. Suddenly, that carefully crafted plan you set on Monday feels like a distant memory. When your week goes off track, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed and frustrated. You might wonder: should I push harder, drop everything, or just wait for next week to start fresh? The truth is, none of those options are ideal. Instead, what you need is a way to reset your week without starting over completely — a way to regain control, protect your priorities, and move forward with intention. This episode will walk you through a practical, simple method to reset your week when plans change — no burnout, no guilt, just clarity and progress.

If you want support customizing this strategy to your unique business and rhythm, I invite you to book a Focus + Freedom Call with me and we'll build a reset plan that works for you. https://tidycal.com/ceoamplify/focus-and-freedom-roadmap-session
