The CEO strategy I use between pickups and dance practice


Hey Reader,

Last summer, I found myself balancing my laptop on the center console of our minivan, answering Voxers from clients while waiting outside Irish dance practice.

Earlier that morning? Cheerleading camp drop-off.

And the day before? Designing "boredom buster" projects for the girls so I could squeeze in coaching calls in peace. 🤪

If you're juggling it all this summer—client work, creative ideas, camp schedules, family fun—I see you. This season is full. But that doesn't mean your business has to take a back seat or run you into the ground.

Let's do it different this time.

Welcome to our favorite summer series: CEO Week ☀️

🎧
Listen to Episode 539: Finding Your Focus →

This isn’t about doing more—it’s about doing the right things, in a way that fits your life right now.

In this episode, I’m walking you through:

• The 3 types of tasks that should always be on your calendar
• How to prioritize your energy based on your current season (yes, even the messy ones)
• What a real CEO Week looks like—from the front seat of my car to my actual planning template
• And why your to-do list might be keeping you stuck
