🎙Hey friends! Welcome to the Time for Living podcast, where we chat about how to be more intentional with our precious time so we can pursue our biggest goals and dreams while still having time to live our one truly amazing life. Do these common struggles resonate with you? Do you have amazing goals and aspirations but can’t find the time to make progress on what matters most? Are you overwhelmed with responsibilities, struggling to prioritize them, and feeling like nothing important gets done? Are you dreaming of a day when ’busy’ isn’t your default mode and you achieve everything you set out to accomplish? Do you feel the squeeze between work demands, family responsibilities, and personal aspirations? Are you juggling a million things and wondering when ’me time’ became a luxury? I’ve been there too – feeling overwhelmed and burnt out, with constant low energy, wishing for more hours in the day, and feeling like life was passing me by. Then, I discovered the magic of being intentional with my most important resource: time. By creating systems that aligned my time with my priorities and values, I was able to carve out space for what truly mattered. The weight lifted off my shoulders, and this holistic approach rippled into every area of my life. Every intentional decision increased my productivity and propelled me towards my life goals and dreams with an energy and drive like never before. I’m your host, Lucy Clarke – a devoted boy mom, dedicated business owner, and time freedom mentor. I created the Time for Living podcast for you because I want you to have the time freedom to pursue your ambitions and still make time for what truly matters. Together, we’ll uncover your purpose, goals, and true values, then create systems that align your daily time with these priorities. We’ll swap time-draining activities for time-efficient habits and routines that will move you toward your most important goals. We’ll dive into everything from finding clarity to creating aligned systems and consistent habits that enrich every area of your life. We’ll examine how you currently use your time and create action plans for how you want to spend it in the future. Expect transformative insights, actionable steps, lasting changes, and a community cheering you on. Stay tuned for the Time for Living Podcast. Get ready to find the time!
