224. Confessions of an Efficiency Enthusiast

Have you ever wondered why some people get energized by planning and organizing while others feel stressed just thinking about it? In this episode, I dive into my identity as an efficiency enthusiast. From structuring work and family life to maximizing time and resources, I share what it means to love systems, calendars, and routines, and why it matters in your work. Whether you relate or sit on the opposite end of the spectrum, you’ll gain insight into how efficiency shapes professional and personal life.   I break down the pros and cons of being an efficiency enthusiast. I also share three confessions that reveal how my love of structure shows up in unexpected ways. By the end of this episode, you’ll understand where you fall on the efficiency spectrum, how it impacts your professional and personal life, and practical ways to strike the right balance between structure and flexibility. You’ll also gain strategies for making the most of your resources, avoiding common pitfalls, and giving yourself permission to rest without guilt as you transition from summer’s slower pace into fall’s busy rhythm.   Get full show notes and more information here: https://thejoyfulpractice.com/224
