In this episode Monée Williams interviews long-time client Cindy Kent, a healthcare executive and corporate board director, about how outsourcing personal and domestic tasks transformed her life and career. Cindy shares her journey from guilt over asking for help to embracing support services that freed hours of time, improved family presence, and reduced stress. They discuss practical strategies — protecting calendar time, coordinating between personal and professional assistants, and outsourcing tasks you don’t need to do yourself — plus real examples like hiring a house cleaner, using a concierge for event tickets, and rethinking large dinner parties. The conversation centers on the mindset shift required to delegate: treat your time like a high-value resource, operate at the highest level of your “license,” and prioritize work that only you can do. Cindy explains why she’s stayed with Time Managed, LLC for over a decade — trust, value, and a team that understands her preferences — and offers actionable advice for listeners ready to start outsourcing (start with what you hate doing). This episode is for busy professionals, executives, and anyone wanting better work-life harmony through intentional delegation.
