Over the years, I’ve tested way too many productivity tools in the name of "getting organized"—and spoiler alert: half of them made my life more complicated, not easier. So in this episode, I’m officially calling it quits with the tools that just aren’t cutting it anymore. I’ll share what I’m ditching, why less is more when it comes to your tech stack, and the handful of tools I’m actually keeping. If you’ve ever found yourself switching between three different to-do list apps in a single month (guilty!), this one’s for you.

In This Episode:

✅ Why having too many tools can actually hurt your productivity

✅ The project management and to-do list apps I think you should let go

✅ How to streamline your tech stack without losing functionality

✅ The tools I am keeping and why they made the cut

✅ A quick challenge to audit your own digital clutter

If you’re feeling personally attacked by the fact that it’s already February and you still haven’t set your 2025 goals, don’t worry—I’m right there with you. 🙋‍♀️

This episode is for my fellow delayed goal-setters, January quitters, and people who just needed a little more time to get it together (same, bestie, same). The good news? You’re not behind, and I’m giving you official permission to set lazy goals—because small wins lead to big success.

• Why starting late is actually better than rushing into goals you’ll abandon by February
• How to ditch the guilt and set bare minimum goals that are so easy it’s almost laughable
• Why momentum—not motivation—is the real secret weapon for success
• My personal struggle with finally reading Fourth Wing and why I should probably take my own advice

Set one hilariously easy, bare minimum goal and write it down. Then, take it up a notch: DM me your goal, but make it sound like a movie tagline. Tune in for an example!
