get ahead of the holidays

October 20-24, 2025

You’re showing up for everyone, holding it all together, hoping the right planner or system will finally make it feel easier.

But instead, it’s one long game of catch-up.

You're juggling deadlines, dishes, drop-offs, and everything in between

And the holidays? They’re about to add another layer of busy.

Right now, it might feel like you're just trying to keep up. 

AND IT'S EXHAUSTING.

We hear this every year from women just like you:

I feel like I’m constantly ping-ponging between work, family and festive chaos.

I make a plan, but holiday curveballs always throw me off.

I’m up late wrapping gifts and catching up on work, wondering why I can’t get it together.

I have sticky notes everywhere, lists on my phone, and reminders in my head—but nothing feels organized.

I know I need systems that actually work, but I don’t even know where to start.

And the worst part?
 
That quiet, creeping guilt.

Because if you're overwhelmed, it must be your fault... right?

When was the last time you...

➡️ Said “yes” to one more thing, even though your calendar was already overflowing?

➡️ Stayed busy all day, but still felt like you didn't get enough done?

➡️ Forgot the one thing you swore you wouldn’t - like the teacher gift or party RSVP?

if you're quietly nodding...

You're in exactly the right place. 

join the challenge now

➡️ Promised yourself you'd "figure it out later"... but later never came?

➡️ Started Monday feeling behind, and ended Friday wondering how it’s already December?

I created the Take Back Your Time Challenge: Stress-Free Holiday Edition, because I want you to know: 

it doesn't have to be this way

You don't need more hustle this holiday season.


You don’t need the perfect planner, or matching wrapping paper.

You need clarity.

Because when you know what matters most, you can design a rhythm that fits your real life—so you can protect your peace and actually enjoy the season.

— MARLENE D.

"Working with Anna was one of the best experiences that has transpired, because now my potential is limitless!"

But the truth is—you don’t need more hours.

You need a new rhythm.

One that fits who you are, where you’re going, and the season you’re in - holidays and all. 

If you've ever thought,

"I just need more hours in the day..."

I get it.

The path to taking back your time starts here:

Awareness - seeing clearly where your time is really going (no shame, just truth).

Clarity - choosing what matters most this season, and letting go of what doesn't. Because peace starts with priorities.

Alignment - designing a life that is a reflection of YOU, not someone else's version of the perfect holidays. 

Rhythm - creating small, steady routines that support you on your best days and your hardest ones. (Looking at you, December.)

Sustainability - learning how to keep moving forward, so when the new year arrives, you're not crashing, you're coasting

You don't have to hustle harder.

You don't have to get it perfect.

You just have to start.

And that first step to a peaceful holiday season?

It's closer than you think.

Picture yourself

✨ You’re wrapping gifts without rushing, playlist on, actually enjoying the moment.

☕️ Your mornings feel calm—coffee first, chaos second.

🎄 You’re saying “yes” to the things that matter and “not this year” to the rest—without guilt.

🕯️ Your calendar feels clear, not crammed.

😃  Finally saying goodbye to that frazzled feeling when you think about your schedule. 

❤️ And when someone asks how you’re doing, you don’t say “busy.” You say, “So good.”

The Take Back Your Time Challenge is a 5-day reset for ambitious, working women who are ready to trade overwhelm for peace before the holidays hit full speed.

Each day combines a mindset shift with one simple action step, so you can create clarity, build rhythms that actually fit your life, and make space for what truly matters.

That's exactly what we'll do together inside the

Here's exactly what challenge alums are saying

but Is it worth it?

Skip the endless trial and error this holiday season.

Inside the challenge, you’ll fast-track what actually works—so this year, you’re not just surviving the season, you’re enjoying it.

Instead of another season of “try harder” and hope for the best, you’ll have a step-by-step plan, a supportive community, and coaching that meets you where you are, so you can move through the season calm, clear, and in control.

Skip the holiday overwhelm

How many holiday planners, apps, or color-coded calendars have promised calm, but left you busier than ever?

How many hours have you spent chasing calm that never comes?

How many moments—concerts, cookie nights, quiet mornings—have you missed because you were too overwhelmed to be present?

Think about it

Once we're in? We're in.

No late registrations. Because momentum loves a clear start line -- and we're crossing it together.

Doors close Monday, october  24

day five

I love all your enthusiasm and encouragement. 

Thanks so much and I am so glad I took the leap.

- Tammy

I like that it is bite-sized - even the homework! 

It's nice to know I'm not alone. 

- Nancy

Working with Anna has given me the clarity and confidence I have lacked to make decisions, prioritize, create manageable boundaries, and force myself to keep those boundaries.

- Andree M.

Before I worked with Anna I felt like I was swimming against the current. 

what past clients have to say:

This is NOT about "powering through" December. It's about doing what matters most with less stress and more joy. 

You're hoping for an intense, hustle-harder productivity bootcamp.

Even in the busiest season, real change requires showing up. 

You aren't willing to set aside an hour a day for yourself. 

This isn't about one-size-fits-all holiday plan. It's about learning how to design rhythms that fit your real life. 

You want a detailed, minute-by-minute schedule built for you. 

This challenge will give you powerful tools to calm the holiday chaos—but you still have to do the work.


You're looking for a magic wand that's going to fix everything in one go. 

This is not for you if...

but will this work for me?

You’re excited to learn from someone who's been where you are—and cheer for others, too.


You want support, encouragement and real results.

You know you don't have to do it perfectly - you just have to start.

You're willing to show up messy and imperfect.

You’re craving real mindset shifts, not just quick fixes, or holiday planners that gather dust by December.

You know you need a new approach—but not another planner, app, or color-coded system.

You're ready to stop playing catch-up and finally feel calm and in control as the holidays unfold.

 You’re tired of feeling like you’re always behind—and want this holiday season to feel different.

This is for you if...

but will this work for me?

- Vicki E.

Don't let Anna's sweet, Southern charm make you think she is not a badass when it comes to digging in to finding where your priorities are and how to make them shine!

a note from a happy client

Here are some Common Q's and A's:

Have a question?

What exactly is the Take Back Your Time Challenge?

The Take Back Your Time Challenge: Stress-Free Holiday Edition is a 5-day live experience designed to help you move through the holidays feeling calm, clear, and confident instead of scattered and overwhelmed.

Each day, you’ll join a live training session (about an hour), take one simple action step, and start creating real, lasting change in how you manage your time—before the holiday chaos begins.

This isn’t about doing more or cramming in another to-do. It’s about clearing the clutter, protecting your peace, and actually enjoying the season.

How is this different from the last Challenge you hosted?

The Take Back Your Time Challenge I hosted in May 2025 focused on time management in a more general sense, creating rhythms and routines that support your everyday life.

This Stress-Free Holiday Edition takes those same powerful principles and applies them to the busiest, most high-pressure season of the year. You’ll learn how to protect your peace, set healthy boundaries, and stay present through the parties, traditions, and to-dos—so you can actually enjoy the holidays instead of just surviving them.

Who is the Take Back Your Time Challenge made for?

If every holiday season leaves you feeling behind before it even begins—if your days blur together in a mix of deadlines, dinners, and a never-ending to-do list—this challenge is for you.

The Take Back Your Time Challenge: Stress-Free Holiday Edition is designed for busy, big-hearted women who want to move through the season with clarity, purpose, and peace.

It’s for you if you’re ready to stop reacting to all the demands of the holidays—and start creating a rhythm that feels calm, intentional, and true to you.

You don’t need a perfect plan, color-coded wrapping paper, or superhero discipline. You just need the right mindset shifts—and the right support—to make this holiday season feel like it finally fits your life.

I'm so busy already. What if I don't have time to do this?

Honestly? That’s exactly why you need to join—especially before the holiday chaos hits.

Each live session is about an hour, and you’ll walk away with tools and clarity that will save you hours (and a lot of stress) later in the season.

Replays are available for a full week, so you can catch up whenever it fits your schedule.
This challenge is designed for real life—messy days, packed calendars, and all. You don’t have to do it perfectly. You just have to show up.

What if I can't attend every session live?

No worries at all. Every session will be recorded, and you’ll have replay access for a limited time after the Challenge wraps.

You can tune in on your own time—and still get all the breakthroughs, momentum, and materials you need.

Will I have lifetime access to the replays?

The replays will be available for 2 weeks after the Challenge ends.

This challenge is about taking action now, not stacking up another “someday” course.

You’ll have more than enough time to watch (and rewatch!) while the energy is high and you’re building serious momentum.

I've tried time management stuff before and it didn't stick. How is this different?

Because this Challenge isn’t about squeezing yourself into a rigid system that was built for someone whose life—and holiday season—looks nothing like yours.

We’re starting with the roots: how you think about your time, how you make decisions, and how you set priorities when everything feels important.

It’s about creating a flexible, sustainable foundation that works for your real life—so you can move through the holidays (and beyond) with more peace, less pressure, and rhythms that actually last.

Do I need any special apps, planners or software?

Nope!

All you need is a notebook (or our printable workbook), a pen, and about an hour a day. This challenge is designed to simplify your life—not add more tools, tabs, or subscriptions to your plate.

Our challenge community meets in a private Facebook group. If you’ve stepped away from social media (we totally get it), you can create a temporary account just for the week and delete it afterward.

And if that’s not an option for you, no worries—we’ll upload all the replay videos to a non-Facebook page so you can stay connected and caught up.

Is this Challenge just for women?

The majority of our participants are women, and many of the examples I share are inspired by the real challenges that working women face—but everyone is welcome.

If you’re ready to take back control of your time in a supportive, encouraging space, you belong here.

And while I often talk about motherhood and family life, this challenge isn’t just for moms—because moms aren’t the only memory makers. Whether you’re building a career, nurturing friendships, caring for loved ones, or simply creating moments that matter, this is about helping you make time for what (and who) matters most.

I'm not on Facebook. Can I still participate? 

Totally understand, and you’re not alone!
While I know Facebook isn’t everyone’s favorite, it’s the best place for us to host the Challenge, connect as a group, and make sure you feel supported every step of the way.

If you’re currently off Facebook or taking a break, you can create a quick account just for the Challenge and delete it afterward. That way, you can stay focused and still enjoy the full experience.

All of the main Challenge trainings will stream live inside the private Facebook group.
VIP Coaching Sessions will take place separately in Google Meet, so if you’re a VIP, you’ll have access to both.

Bottom line: I want you to get the absolute most out of this experience, and I’ll make it as easy and distraction-free as possible.

Why is this a paid challenge instead of free?

Great question—and I'm so glad you asked. When I was creating the Take Back Your Time Challenge, I dug into the research about what actually helps people create real, lasting transformation. Study after study shows: when you invest even a small amount in yourself, you're dramatically more likely to show up, stay engaged, and create real change.

When you invest $47 in this Challenge, you’re not just buying a seat. You’re making a promise to yourself that your time, your energy, and your peace matter—especially before the holidays. That small act of commitment is the first step toward the kind of change that actually sticks.

Curious about the research? Here are links to two studies: Link. Link.

What's the difference between General Admission and VIP?

General Admission gives you access to all five Challenge sessions, printable daily worksheets, replays for two weeks, and fun daily prize opportunities.

VIP takes everything to the next level. You’ll join me for five small-group coaching sessions right after each training, where you’ll get direct feedback, personalized guidance, and a chance to dive deeper into your specific challenges.

As a VIP, you’ll also unlock two exclusive workshops:
🎁 The Holiday Setup Asana Board Workshop, where I’ll show you how to organize your entire season in one simple dashboard.
✨ The Weekly Planning Walkthrough (Holiday Edition), a behind-the-scenes look at how I plan my own weeks during the holidays to stay calm, clear, and in control.

Plus, you’ll get extended replay access and personalized support to help you make lasting progress.
If you know you want a little extra accountability, encouragement, and clarity, VIP is 100% worth it.

How long will registration stay open?

Registration closes the morning the Challenge begins -- Monday, October 20th!

VIP spots are extremely limited (only 50 available), so if you’re thinking about upgrading, now’s the time to grab your seat.

I’m Anna, your time management coach and host of It’s About Time, a podcast about work, life, and balance.

With burnout in my past, I’m on a mission to help busy people like you stop feeling overwhelmed and start spending time on what matters most. After immersing myself in all things time management, productivity, and work/life balance and then earning my executive leadership coaching certification, I share all that I’ve learned, so you never have to experience the lack of boundaries and burnout that I did.

Over the past 5 years, I’ve developed a step-by-step way to plan a year filled with purpose, intention and time for what matters most. I can’t wait to share it with you!

Busy is NOT a badge of honor, and it’s not the only way to build a life.

I’m here as your coach to help you plan with purpose, intention, and HEART.
