Life can feel like a lot — because it is. Between work, relationships, caregiving, and everything in between, most of us are
moving from task to task, stuck in reaction mode, always trying to catch up. The truth is, most of us were never taught
how to design a life that aligns our time, our energy, and the way we approach all that we have to manage.
This series is your invitation to step out of survival mode and build something better. Grounded in the power of micro
habits, these sessions focus on small, sustainable shifts that make a big difference. You’ll learn practical tools and
strategies designed to reduce overwhelm, clarify your priorities, and build soft structure — the kind that supports the way
you want to live.
Energy & Time Mapping
Tired of planning your days with a calendar that doesn’t reflect your energy or reality? In this workshop, you’ll learn how to
map your time based on your energy levels, natural rhythms, and actual capacity. Through reflection and hands-on tools,
you’ll discover how to make your schedule work for you — not against you. Ideal for anyone who feels overbooked, burned
out, or stretched too thin. Limited to 20.
