Hello, beautiful friend! Todayās episode is all about finding calm amidst the digital clutter. After relocating my workspace to escape harsh shadows and background noise, Iām excited to share five powerful steps to achieve an organized inbox.
Hereās a sneak peek of what I cover:
Declutter Your Inbox: Use a tool like Unroll.Me to unsubscribe from emails that no longer serve you. This will free up space and reduce distractions, especially from promotions and unwanted newsletters.Label Effectively: Set up labels for key categories without going overboard. I use minimal labels for business but add more for personal emails (think finance, school, etc.). The goal is simplicity, not overwhelm!Transfer Tasks to Your Calendar: Avoid using your inbox as a to-do list. Instead, transfer tasks to your calendar, budgeting time for them to create a clearer inbox and a more focused workflow.Use Inbox Pause: This Google Chrome plugin prevents new emails from distracting you while working. Itās ideal for focused inbox time without interruption.Combine Accounts When It Makes Sense: Streamline multiple email accounts by forwarding older addresses to your primary inboxākeeping things consolidated and easy to manage.If you're ready to go even further, join me for Digital Declutter Day on December 9! Register now for only $47 (the price goes up December 1!) to declutter together and prep for a fresh start in the new year. See you there!

Welcome friends! This week on the podcast, Iām diving into trusting your next best move, whether in business or life. I encourage you to stop worrying about the next 10 steps and instead focus on the immediate next move. By doing this, you can avoid feeling overwhelmed or paralyzed by overthinking. Iāll be explaining how focusing on one step at a time can help you stay grounded and make progress without the pressure of perfection.
In this episode, youāll learn how to lean into your emotions, silence the need for ārightā decisions, and take action from a place of abundance rather than scarcity. Tune in to hear advice on applying these lessons to your own life and work, and remember: sometimes, the next best move might just be to pause, reflect, and be still.
