099 “5 Changes that Improved My Time Management Fast” Ru-tee Block [Time Management Success Story]

Thu, 21 Aug 2025 06:00:00 +0100

In this episode of The Time Management Podcast, we meet Ru-tee Block, a menopause fitness coach who shares how the Find Your Missing Hour 7-day Time Audit Challenge completely transformed her approach to time management, energy management, and self-care.

Living in Costa Rica with the unpredictability of sloths crossing the road, power outages, and life in the jungle, Ru-tee discovered how a personalised Time Management plan that accounted for her ADHD and dyslexia could create freedom, balance and joy.

She also opens up about the unique challenges of menopause, why multitasking is draining, and how discipline in time management became the ultimate act of self-love.

“Small changes made a big difference. The Find Your Missing Hour 7-Day Challenge has been a total game changer for me.” Ru-tee Block

What you’ll learn in this episode:

How a 7-day time audit revealed leaks in Ru-tee’s schedule
Shifting from vague to-do lists to structured, scheduled days
Why creating buffer time is essential for life’s unpredictability
How multitasking drains energy during menopause
Tailoring productivity systems to suit ADHD and dyslexia
Why time audits are acts of self-love and discipline
The myth of “no time” and how it damages health and joy

5 Ways the Find Your Missing Hour 7-Day Challenge made Ru-tee more Productive:

From lists to structure – She stopped relying on vague to-do lists and began scheduling tasks into specific time slots.
Master planning – A weekly “master sheet” kept everything in one place and made priorities clear.
Buffer time built in – Adding extra time for travel and delays meant fewer disruptions and less stress.
Content batching – Creating and editing on set days made social media posting consistent and effortless.
No more abandoned tasks – Missed items were rescheduled instead of forgotten, preventing backlogs and overwhelm.

⏰ It’s your Time!

098 "How I Found an Extra Hour a Day" Sonia Jewers [Time Management Success Story]

Thu, 14 Aug 2025 06:00:00 +0100

In this episode of The Time Management Podcast, Organisational Psychologist Sonia Jewers shares how attending my keynote Master Your Time, Boost Your Success and investing in the Find Your Missing Hour 7-Day Challenge transformed her time management.

Sonia went from unstructured “busyness” to living with clarity, intention, and focus, reclaiming an extra hour a day with one simple change. Discover the neuroscience-backed strategies, micro-habits, and mindset shifts that helped her:

- Uncover the illusion of busyness and focus on priorities

- Apply the 888 Formula for balance between sleep, work, and personal time

- Use environmental cues and time blocking to sustain productivity

- Remove distractions, quit Instagram, and schedule strategic recovery

- Align actions with core values for greater fulfilment and efficiency

If you’re feeling constantly busy but not making real progress, then this episode will inspire you to take action starting with a simple one-day time audit.

“Your talk was transformational. When you spoke about the illusion of busyness… I had a little lightbulb moment. I thought: I know someone who that might relate to… me!” Sonia Jewers

⏰ It’s your Time!

About Sonia Jewers

I coach leaders in high-demand industries who are managing career ambition and personal responsibility. They often come to me at a tipping point: stretched thin, navigating complex challenges, and unsure how to keep performing without losing themselves in the process.

Most don’t have time for vague advice. They don't want short term 'hacks'. They want practical, evidence-based support that respects their intelligence and works in the real world. Quickly and sustainably.

With 20+ years experience in organisational psychology and executive coaching, Sonia brings a grounded, science-informed approach to help leaders regain clarity, energy and focus. Her client’s work in sectors like biotech, finance, tech, and insurance industries, where performance is high-stakes and emotional bandwidth is often low.

It’s not about pausing your ambition. It's about learning how to lead in a way that feels more focused, sustainable and human.

In this episode of The Time Management Podcast, we meet Matthew Theijssen to discuss the transformative impact of completing a 7-day time audit inspired by Time Management for Entrepreneurs and Professionals.

091 🔥 How to Stop Wasting Time: [PROVEN STRATEGY] Reclaim an Hour a Day

Thu, 26 Jun 2025 06:00:00 +0100

In this episode of The Time Management Podcast, we’re talking about whether you’re losing an hour of your time every day, what that means for your past, for your future and for your success. Many people feel “busy" but lack clarity on where their time is actually going, let’s talk about it.

“When you change the way you look at your time, the time you have will change.” Abigail Barnes

In this episode we talked about:

The Cost of Lost Time: Most people are unintentionally wasting up to an hour (or more) every day, which equates to 365 hours or 15 days per year.
Success requires suspending disbelief, trying new approaches, silencing inner criticism, focusing on desired outcomes, and embracing the growth phase.
Time Audit Process: A life-changing 7-day time audit can reveal where time is genuinely being spent and uncover hidden inefficiencies.
Time is more valuable than money—it's possible to reclaim wasted time and use it to improve health, relationships, and business success.

Real-Life Case Studies:

Caroline Milne: Believed she was optimising her time but uncovered over an hour of wasted time daily. (Episode 31)
Simon Bergenroth: Improved efficiency 10x by simplifying his calendar and consolidating his schedule. (Episode 70)
Dee Beverford: Learned that when tasks are completed impacts energy levels and productivity the next day. (Episode 78)

Time vs. Value: Linking time directly to personal, business, and relationship goals can create profound lifestyle transformations.
Join the Upcoming Challenge: "Find Your Missing Hour" – A 7-day group challenge (July 7–13) includes resources, a workbook, accountability group, and 20% off with promo code: MORETIME

090 A Story of Time, Resilience & the Pressure to be "Normal." [Abigail's Scoliosis Story]

Thu, 19 Jun 2025 06:00:00 +0100

In this episode of The Time Management Podcast, I share my personal story of being diagnosed with scoliosis age 16, undergoing two major spinal surgeries age 19, and what this journey has taught me about time, resilience, and the pressure to be "normal."

Since June is Scoliosis Awareness Month, it felt like the right time to finally share this story.

In this episode we talked about:

The mindset shift from diagnosis to decision.
How scoliosis shaped my life, career, and daily routines.
The impact of societal expectations around "fitting in."
The hidden costs of trying to be “normal.”
Neurodivergence, inclusion, and the importance of self-advocacy.
Practical tips for advocating for your health and your needs.

Homework for You:

What have you overcome that shaped who you are today?
What are you not appreciating about yourself right now?
Who are you not appreciating for their role in your journey?

078 "This simple change transformed my Time Management" Dee Beverford [Time Management Success Story]

Thu, 27 Mar 2025 06:00:00 +0000

📣 In this episode of The Time Management Podcast I meet Dee Beverford, a Virtual Assistant Recruiter who read Time Management for Entrepreneurs & Professionals and wanted to share what he discovered from completing a 7 day Time Audit.

This Episode is for you if:

→ You’re constantly running out of time

→ You’re juggling deadlines, responsibilities & a never ending to do list

→ You’re ready for things to be different and are open to trying something new

5 Key Takeaways from the episode:

Tracking Your Time Reveals Hidden Patterns

"The major thing that I found was not only how much time I spend on something but when I do something."
Understanding when certain tasks are done and how they affect the next day is just as important as the time spent on them.

Morning Routines Set the Tone for the Day

"How I start the day truly does affect how the rest of the day goes."
Having a structured morning routine ensures a productive and balanced day.

Time Blocking and Scheduling Bring Freedom

"I time block in 15-minute increments. It truly gives me more freedom by being that strict and detailed."
Planning in detail actually creates more flexibility and time for important tasks.

Time Tracking Helps Identify Tasks to Outsource

"Time tracking is the first step of your process of onboarding a client. You can't outsource a task until you know what tasks are taking up all your time."
Tracking time helps business owners pinpoint tasks they can delegate to free up time for growth.

Small Adjustments Have a Big Impact

"Just noticing if you did one thing on one day versus on a different day… how that affected energy, mindset, and ability to get things done."
Simple changes, like moving tasks to better time slots, can drastically improve productivity and mental well-being.

⏰ It’s your Time!

About Dee Beverford:

Dee (Demetrius) helps short-term rental owners & online-based entrepreneurs reclaim their time through expert Virtual Assistant recruitment. From Vegas hospitality to building 24/7 guest communication teams, his journey is rooted in the power of delegation and team building. A keyboard enthusiast and detail-oriented problem-solver, Dee empowers clients to create streamlined systems and achieve their dream week.

"I've loved working with Abigail and Success by Design Training who without doubt have helped me to focus on what's important, organising the most valuable commodity we all have - time! Our strategy session was focused on helping me personally and professionally solve my time management challenges which came at the perfect time as areas of my life were in flux. The time audit I completed prior to the strategy session helped me to hold up a 'metaphorical mirror' to reflect on where I was spending and utilising my time. Talking this through in depth with Abigail made me realise that there were some immediate practical solutions I could put in place but more significantly I had a mindset shift in the way I treated the intentional planning and usage of my time to achieve a solid and achievable work/life balance. Thank you!" Simon Bergenroth

049 Can Astrology save YOU Time? Ira Kiourti PhD

Thu, 12 Sep 2024 06:00:00 +0100

📣 This week on The Time Management Podcast my guest is Ira Kiourti, PhD, (D.F.Astrol.S., Cl.Hyp., MLitt, MPhil, RTT, Cert.Psych.Astrol.) a Professional Astrologer with 30+ years experience, an RTT qualified therapist, and a Doctor of Philosophy, specialising in Logic and Metaphysics. She is also the holder of a prestigious Diploma from the Faculty of Astrological Studies (FAS) in London.

This Episode is for you if:

→ You’re willing to see things differently

→ You've been wondering what’s going on in the world right now

→ You’re ready to reframe what you know to be true and consider a different way of looking at life and time!

Ira has this to say about her journey with astrology: “Astrology is one of the first languages I learned as a child and it has never ceased to surprise and delight me. Contrary to popular belief, it is a rich symbolic language which facilitates self-knowledge, personal empowerment and the exercise of free will. It allows us to step outside our programme - to become lucid in this dream, or hit "pause" in this virtual reality game we’re in - and decode it. It is precisely this mental shift which allows for greater freedom and conscious choice.“

“Millionaires don’t use astrology, billionaires do.” J.P. Morgan

In this episode we also covered:

Ira’s early fascination with time
A lifelong seeker of meaning
Studying Astrology from the age 12
Understanding the quality of time
The practical aspects of astrology
The history of astrology
What historical figures followed and used astrology?
“Millionaires don’t use astrology, billionaires do.” J.P. Morgan
The implications of planetary movements
What is Mercury retrograde & should we be worried about it?
How your astrology can influence your personal time management
Knowing your Sun, Moon & Rising Sign
Understanding your lunar nodes & chart ruler
The symbolic language of astrology
The difference between astrology and astronomy
The Astrological Weather
What’s coming up for the planet astrologically to 2026
Spiritual awakening in the age of Aquarius
Understanding cycles (natural & personal)
Living with your chart (trusting you intuition)
And so much more

About Ruth Penfold:

Ruth Penfold has been a People, Culture and Talent expert for over two decades, and has built and rebuilt teams and cultures for companies like Shazam, Onfido and bp Launchpad as leader and Chief People Officer.

Having experienced the chaos of rapid growth first hand, she learnt how to build human centric, vibrant cultures that scale. She also experienced first hand the challenges of both getting there and operating at that level as a woman, but doing so in a way where she and the humans around her truly thrived.

That is what has inspired her to build Bloom, a leadership methodology originally solely for women, but now delivered to both cohorts, teams and individuals of all genders, depending on the client's needs. At its heart, Bloom is a methodology that builds self awareness, confidence, ownership and authenticity.

About Daryn Wober:

Daryn Wober is a Yoga Alliance (RYT 500) certified teacher who has trained (1,250+ hours) mainly in the lineage of Sri T Krishnamacharya. He started practising Yoga in 2015 following a back injury and it soon became a part of his life.

Daryn found himself being drawn to the ancient wisdom of various yogic texts and experimenting with how this knowledge can be incorporated as part of our modern lives. He found that, if practised correctly and consistently, Yoga can help to relieve suffering and transform our experiences. In 2018 he began teaching groups and individuals. More recently has trained as a yoga therapist.

Yoga has the power to transform the way we experience life. From a place of stress, pressure and anxiety about how to keep life under control, by following the traditional path of Yoga, we can move to a place where we trust in life and thus it becomes more spacious, intentional and expansive. The teachings of both ancient and modern yogis have provided scientific paths to liberate ourselves from suffering and pain by taking us on a journey of Self discovery.

His mission is to teach as traditionally as his knowledge permits in order to bring to light the many aspects of Yoga (beyond postures) to support his students' physical, mental and spiritual journeys.

030 How does Neurodivergence affect Time Management (Expert Thoughts) Pasha Marlowe, MFT

Thu, 02 May 2024 06:00:00 +0100

📣 This week I am joined by Pasha Marlowe, MFT, CEO of Neurobelonging to talk to us about the difference between neurodiversity, neurodivergence, neurodivergent, neurotypical and what organisations can do to create cultures of neuroinclusion. As well as sharing her thoughts on Time Management.

Pasha helps empower clients to see themselves and others differently, and is on a mission to destigmatize neurodivergence, mental health, and disability.

This Episode is for you if:

→ The way you want to work isn’t the same as your colleagues

→ You feel like there’s a rulebook for life, that everyone else has but you don’t

→ You want to understand more about neurodiversity and the role it plays in your organisation, business, and life

“We feel like aliens, we feel like we’ve been dropped onto this planet, we didn’t get the rule book, we’re not exactly sure how to act or feel or dress or move, so we’re gonna look around and see how everyone else is doing it, and we’re gonna feel like everyone else figured it out better than we did. That’s a very common experience for a neurodivergent person.” Pasha Marlowe

In this episode we also covered:

What is neurodivergent?
Choosing your identity
Neurotypes
Managing your traits
Systems/access/support needs
Masking to fit in at home/relationships
Masking to lead at work
Leading with vulnerability
Neuroinclusion
Workspace accommodations
How to accommodate for a workforce
Linear and non-linear thinking
Lateral and critical thinking
Divergent and neurodivergent thinking
Personality testing
Creating cultures of neuroinclusion
Rewriting the rulebook for life
How many spoons do you have left today?
And so much more

⏰ It’s your Time!

012 The art of being Delusional: It’s Your Time with Abigail Barnes

Thu, 21 Dec 2023 06:00:00 +0000

In this week’s episode of The Time Management Podcast we explore THE ART OF BEING DELUSIONAL, how to walk with a foot in both worlds and make your dream life your real life!

Delusional According to me: The fine line between being realistic & daring to dream in a world that needs to see physical proof before it will believe it.

Delusional According to Oxford Languages: Holding false beliefs or judgements about your external reality that are held despite evidence to the contrary.

This Episode is for you if:

→ Your current reality is a far cry from your dream reality

→ You’re doubting your decisions and should-ing all over yourself

→ You’re lost in the middle of a spiritual awakening questioning the meaning of life

“It’s your time to live the life that you came here to live.” Abigail Barnes

In this episode we also cover:

How to hold on to your dreams despite your current reality (far cry from your dreams)
How to hold on to your dreams despite internal confusion (no external proof)
How to hold on to your dreams in the middle of a spiritual breakdown
The art of Becoming MORE YOU
How to balance spirituality & strategy in day to day life
And so much more

This is a multi-layered conversation, do the homework and see what you uncover, it’s never about what it’s about.

Homework questions from this week’s episode.

Q1. Review your Current Reality: What fears are washing round and round in your mind right now - list them out

Q2. Evaluate: Are they true (do you have proof)

Q3. Dare to Dream: Write about 2 Goals you’d like to achieve in your career/business or life, start with the sentence…even though my current reality is not my ideal reality I am excited to…get the phone call from X about Y, receive an email to confirm XYZ, book that trip to…buy my new clothes as my exercise regime has worked wonders…

** Write the story about your goals from the point of view that they have been realised, tell it like you are telling me what happened over a coffee…you’ll never believe that this happened, and that happened etc.

006 The Addiction to Busy & How to let it Go with Abigail Barnes

Thu, 09 Nov 2023 06:00:00 +0000

Have you ever stopped to question why you're ALWAYS busy?

This Episode is for you if:

→ Everyone around you is busy, so shouldn’t you be busy too?

→ You either make up work, or make things take longer to look busy!

→ You think you might be addicted to the adrenaline rush of being busy, but are over the anxiety that usually follows it!

In this week’s episode we explore the ADDICTION to busyness, where it comes from & how you can let it go!

Building on our previous conversation about the Astonishing Power of Action Taking.

Every action you take in life stems from a belief.

Beliefs fall into two categories:

When I do X I will get Y
I must do X because of Y

In this episode we discuss both types of belief. Starting with the most common belief, that busy people are successful people, a belief I held for decades.

We also discuss time freedom and the beliefs about what you need to do in order to be worthy of having it.

What we cover in this episode:

The belief: Busy people are successful
Time Freedom: Choices not chores

*The questions I ask you to think about at the end of this episode are confronting, but nothing in your life will change until you do.

Who are you trying to impress by being busy?*
What are you trying to prove by being busy?*
How is being busy helping you?*

I can’t wait to hear what you take away from this episode, your ah has & questions.

Be sure to connect with me on Linkedin or Instagram so that we can continue the conversation there!

⏰ It’s your time my friend, there is another way!

⏰ It’s your time to break up with busy

⏰ It’s your Time!
