Work + Life Harmony | Time Management, Organization and Planning for Overwhelmed Women
You wake up with a plan. By 10 AM, it's completely off the rails. By bedtime, you're mentally running through everything you didn't get to and wondering how tomorrow will be any different.
Work + Life Harmony is the weekly podcast that teaches women a completely different approach to time management, weekly planning, and productivity.
Hosted by Megan Sumrell, a time management expert with 20+ years in systems and planning, this show will change the way you think about your calendar, your to-do list, and how you spend your time.
Megan covers everything from weekly planning strategies and daily routines to goal setting, organization, and how to handle the curveballs that throw your whole week off. Her approach was built specifically for women managing work, family, and the million things in between, not recycled advice from productivity systems designed for someone else's life.
If you've been stuck in the cycle of overwhelm, guilt, and never-ending to-do lists, start here. New episodes every week.

Cal Newport's Slow Productivity Book Review
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
If you've been hearing buzz about Cal Newport's new book "Slow Productivity" and wondering if it's worth your time, this episode is for you. I'm breaking down the three core principles of slow productivity and sharing my honest take on how they apply to real life, especially for those of us juggling work and caregiving responsibilities.
Cal's framework offers a different approach to the "hustle harder" culture we're all drowning in. Whether you're a consultant, writer, researcher, or anyone whose job involves deep thinking and creating, understanding slow productivity could shift how you approach your workday. Let's dig into what slow productivity really means and how to think about it in the context of your actual life.
In This Episode, I'll Cover:
- The three core principles of slow productivity and how they work
- Why conventional time management fails knowledge workers (and everyone else)
- How to do fewer things without your boss thinking you're slacking
- The reality of working at a natural pace when life is unpredictable
- What to consider if you're a primary caregiver reading this book
- My take on obsessing over quality without falling into perfectionism
