Reading Time: 5 minutes Everyone wants to be their best selves, right?

But what happens when your self-help resources… aren’t helping? Our default reaction might be to assume that WE are the problem, but that’s not necessarily true.

Sometimes, self-help isn’t helpful, and not everything is right for YOU. Self-help resources are great, but only when you use them in a way that supports how you operate.

In this episode, I’m going to talk about some of the reasons it might feel like self-help is doing you no good, and what you can do about it going forward (instead of being hard on yourself).

Reading Time: 5 minutes Have you ever wondered why all those time management and productivity “hacks” don’t work for you? It’s not you — it’s them! You don’t need to get up earlier and force yourself into focus mode. Or buy another planner and fancy pens. Or even just make yourself sit down and focus.

Traditional time management philosophies fall short because they don’t lead with value and intention — the two main ingredients for creating habits that stick! Learn more about how I do this using the HEART Method in today’s episode.
