2019-2025 Archival Note:
This is an archive of my body of work (blog and Not Too Productive podcast) from 2019 to 2025.
As much as I’ve wanted to toss it all in the trash, I believe it matters to show the ideas and experiments that carried me to this moment, and to mark how things, and we, change.
Through my years as The Holistic Time Coach, I’ve learned so much. One of the biggest: people don’t actually need to be more productive or manage their time in isolated silos. The truth is, the system we live in is broken, and what we need is a radical new approach to time.
You can find and follow along with my most recent, more congruent work here.
If you see something here that you disagree with, I may… probably… agree with you. That’s part of why I’m archiving it.
How can I create my own motivation on demand?
Did you know you can create your own motivation on demand? In this episode, I explain the brain science behind Tiny Triumphs, focusing on the role of dopamine — the brain’s “happy chemical” — in building motivation.
You will learn how tiny tasks light up your brain’s reward system and why this matters for making real, steady progress without relying on willpower alone.

Why do I judge my progress so harshly?
Not everything has to feel dramatic or hard to “count” as progress. In this episode, I unpack how cultural conditioning teaches us to value big, visible accomplishments while dismissing the small, behind-the-scenes efforts that actually keep things moving.
You will learn how to quiet the internal voice that tells you your small wins don’t matter, and why letting tiny tasks count is key to sustainable progress.

Why do tiny tasks work better for me than massive action?
