Welcome to the show.

It was great to be back after a break with an amazing guest - Time Management and Productivity Coach, Clare Evans

Clare's Journey 🎯

I loved hearing how Clare went from secretary to IT coder to project manager, then took voluntary redundancy at 40 to start her coaching business. Her "what now?" moment really resonated with me - that feeling of wanting something more than corporate life.

The Planning Problem 📝

Clare called me out on my biggest issue - I get so caught up in planning the perfect plan that I never actually DO anything! She says just start with 3 things you want to achieve today. That's it. No perfect system needed.

Quick Wins ⚡

• Spend 5-10 minutes each morning planning your day

• Use "action lists" instead of "to-do lists" (love this reframe!)

• Focus on 90-day goals, not 5-year dreams

• Remember: planning gets faster with practice

The Holistic Approach 🌟

Clare doesn't just focus on work productivity. She looks at your whole life - health, relationships, personal development. As guys, we try to compartmentalize, but everything connects.

Neurodiversity Insight 🧠 Many of Clare's clients have ADHD or think they might. She reminded me that we're all neurodiverse - there's no "normal" way to think or work.

The ONE Thing💡

Develop the planning habit. Take 5-10 minutes each day to plan what you want to achieve. It's about the habit, not the perfect system.
