Summary
In this conversation, Kate takes you inside her most unhinged (and revealing) experiment yet: doing NO calendarizing for 30 days... as a productivity strategist. After years of structure, planning, and control, she’s exploring what happens when she follows pure intuition instead. Listen in for the real-time insights, identity shifts, insights and uncomfortable truths that are already reshaping how she views productivity, time, and control 😏
Top Takeaways & Quotes
💭 “My calendar had more power over my day than my intuition did.”
📆 Letting go of structure doesn’t instantly feel freeing, it can feel chaotic, uncomfortable, and even… wrong
⚖️ The tighter you grip control, the more likely you are to “snap back” (hello all-or-nothing cycles 👀)
🧠 “If I don’t have control… who am I?”
⏳ Without a plan, time can feel like it disappears faster
⚡️ “When I actually feel like doing the task, it’s 10x easier than forcing it from a calendar.”
🌿 Productivity is shifting from control → relationship with time
👀 The sweet spot might not be full structure OR full freedom… but something in between

🧠 Your Next Steps
- Audit your calendar: where are you forcing tasks that you don’t actually feel aligned with?
- Pick 1 day in the next 14 days to experiment with “intuition-led work” - no strict plan, just following your energy
- Before starting any task, pause and ask: do I actually want to do this right now — or do I just feel like I should?
