So many of us feel like we’re always behind, convinced that the right planner or app will finally fix our schedules. But as Anna Dearmon Kornick - time management coach, author of Time Management Essentials: The Tools You Need to Maximize Your Attention, Energy, and Productivity , and host of the It’s About Time podcast - explains, true time management doesn’t start with hacks. It starts with clarity on what matters most.
In this conversation, Anna and I dive into productivity pitfalls, the myth of multitasking, and practical tools like time blocking, creating an ideal week, and simple weekly planning sessions. If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed, distracted, or like your priorities are slipping through the cracks, this episode is packed with encouragement and strategies to help you manage your time with purpose.
What You’ll Learn in This Episode:
Why purpose — rooted in your vision and values — is the foundation of time management
How time blocking helps combat Parkinson’s Law, the planning fallacy, and context switching
Why creating an “ideal week” matters more than aiming for a “perfect day”
Five essential routines that support a well-managed life
A step-by-step approach to weekly planning — even when you’re overwhelmed
More about Anna:A true Louisiana firecracker who has become known for making time management fun, Anna helps busy professionals and business owners struggling with overwhelm manage their time using her personality-driven HEART Method.

205 // Master the Mundane: Thriving as a Mom with ADHD - with Amy Marie Hann
Thursday Aug 28, 2025
Thursday Aug 28, 2025
If you’re a mom with ADHD (or parenting kids with ADHD), daily life can feel like constant overcommitment, burnout, and chaos. But what if instead of pushing harder, you learned to strategically parent your brain?
In this conversation, I’m joined by Amy Marie Hann—author of Master the Mundane: How to Manage Your Life, Home, and Family as a Mom with ADHD which comes out September 10, 2025. Diagnosed at five with ADHD and raising three neurodivergent kids, Amy brings both lived experience and practical strategies for building rhythms that actually work for the ADHD brain.
Together we talk about:
The differences between the boredom zone, depletion zone, ADHD burnout, and activation zone—and how to recognize which one you’re in
Why urgency feels motivating but creates unnecessary chaos in everyday life (and what to do instead)
What “executive function capacity” is, and how to “budget” it like a bank account
How to use the Daily 3 to keep life moving even on burnout or low-energy days
A realistic plan for balancing novelty with capacity so you don’t overcommit
How to ditch “rage decluttering” and instead create sustainable habits for your home
If you’ve ever felt like your ADHD brain is working against you, this episode will help you see that it’s not broken - it just needs the right strategies and support to thrive.
About Amy:Amy Marie Hann is the author of Master the Mundane: How to Manage Your Life, Home, and Family as a Mom with ADHD. Diagnosed with ADHD at age five, she’s now a mom of three, a foster and adoptive parent, and a homeschooling mom who has navigated life with ADHD alongside her husband, kids, dad, and sister. Amy believes the ADHD brain is uniquely designed to bring good to the world—and that the greatest gift moms can give their ADHD kids is modeling what it looks like to thrive.

Do you struggle to let go of things because you see a potential use for them?Do you keep things in your house because you don’t want them ending up in the landfill?
While our desire not to be wasteful is often rooted in positive values such as resourcefulness, frugality, and environmental responsibility, there are three cognitive biases that skew these values to cause us to hold onto what is no longer serving us.
In today’s episode, we’ll dive into them and teach you how to reframe your thoughts so you can make decluttering easier.

If you are an overwhelmed mom who feels like she’s deep in the trenches of survival mode, are reacting to your kids and spouse in a way that doesn’t make you proud, and feel like you’re constantly putting out fires - today’s podcast episode is for you.
My guest is Lisa Roers - CEO of the Sunshine Cafe Podcast and Leading LIFE Online Coaching Services. She is a disciple of Jesus, a wife, a mom, a professional musician and a Certified Agile Coach, Certified Life coach, a Podcaster, and keynote speaker.
We talk about:
the impact that constant “reactive mode” is having on your physical and emotional health, as well as your relationships
simple, practical ways we can get out of overwhelm and become more resilient to change
why the uncomfortable feeling of learning something new is critical to resilience and the role that neuroplasticity plays
Lisa is passionate about helping people find the clarity they crave and teaching people how to become their best self-advocate for all areas of life - and it shines through in this conversation.
