Feeling stretched too thin? In this episode of The Nurse’s Breakroom with Jenny Lytle, RN, we dive into a powerful time management and prioritization tool: the Big Rocks Method. Jenny reflects on her personal time audit and shares how tracking your time and identifying your true priorities can be a game-changer in reducing overwhelm and increasing intentionality.

Whether you're a nurse, solopreneur, caregiver, or all of the above, this quick but powerful episode will help you reclaim your time, clarify your focus, and take meaningful steps toward living a life that aligns with your values.

💡 Takeaways + Action Steps

• Track it to change it: Consider doing a 1-week time audit, noting your activities in 30-minute increments.
• Big Rocks First: Identify your top 3 life priorities—your “big rocks”—and make time for them before the sand (small stuff) fills your schedule.
• Assess & Align: Ask yourself: Does how I spend my time reflect what’s most important to me?
• Choose one change: What’s one small shift you can make to prioritize better?
• Watch for self-sabotage: What might get in your way—and how will you overcome it?
