🎧 Ep. 161 Time Poverty: Achieve More by Doing Less with Peggy Sullivan (Part 1) In this powerful episode, TEDx speaker Peggy Sullivan reveals her journey from "busyness addict" to creator of the revolutionary Busy Busting Process. Discover how to escape the hamster wheel of constant activity and reclaim hours of your week through research-backed strategies.

We explore:

  • The shocking truth about time poverty and why 94% of professionals feel trapped by busyness
  • How the average person wastes one-third of their day on low-value activities
  • The first step of the Busy Busting Process: Subtraction
  • Why micro-steps create sustainable change when massive overhauls fail

🔑 Key takeaways:

  1. Busyness triggers addictive dopamine responses, creating harmful cycles
  2. Using the Busy Barometer tool identifies your specific time-wasting patterns
  3. Small, consistent changes yield massive results (5-7 hours gained weekly)
  4. Breaking the busyness addiction starts with subtracting low-value activities

💡 Quotes to remember: "I'm a busyness addict in recovery... This busyness is controlling me, and I'm not controlling it." - Peggy Sullivan

"90% of people who take on this process get an average five to seven hours back per week." - Peggy Sullivan

"94% of the population is over-the-top busy, wants to be less busy, but they are clueless on how to add more meaning and value to their life." - Peggy Sullivan

🌟 Success Stories:

  • How an executive slashed daily emails from 800 to 56 through simple process changes
  • A VP single mother transformed her productivity with just 20 minutes of strategic self-care daily
