Tuning into Your Nervous System to Avoid Burnout with Michelle Grosser
HI Megan, love the video......question....Were you ever on HGTV?
Thank you! Yes I was
Brilliant talk... so glad I found you on YT... you're so right about having ongoing systems, and a central place for everything (very GTD-esque) and that when we feel out of control over our time (aka our life!) it takes a serious toll on mental health and well being. I think after some time has passed, it takes a toll on physical health as well... I've learned existing in chaos is really bad for you, and learning the discipline of having systems in your life is the way to feel grounded, productive, and empowered. The idea of having a plan for when things don't go according to plan (pop-up-plan) is genius! :D I just subscribed and am signing up for your training... thank-you for shining your light bright and helping the rest of us!! ^_^ <3
Your eyes are mesmerising :) what a gorgeous color combo with the pale blue-green inside and dark blue-green ring outside... very unique!
Thank so much for this! I was on the fence about this but this convinced me & used your discount code! 💕
Company taking feedback IS AN important quality of a company!
Hi Megan, I'm a year late to the party here, but I'm so glad you like the Passion Planner! I've been using it for years, and honestly, one of the many reasons I love following you and doing all of your trainings is how well what you teach meshes with it! You mentioned hijacking a few of the sections to adapt them, and that's exactly what I do. With a little bit of washi tape and a marker, I change the "personal" and "work" task lists on each weekly page into a daily task list-. For monthly tabs: PP actually sells flush tabs that don't stick out! There are also blank tabs, so I divide the blank pages into sections, number them, and then just note the page numbers in my weekly plans so that it's easy to find things.
Reminds me of how i roll my eyes as a mother of two school going children when I watch morning routines of single male influencers 😂😂

This is so true. When my kids were too little to make their own school lunches (or I couldn’t handle extra mess) and I was overwhelmed with everything- I told my husband I needed him to always make their sandwiches. It wasn’t the actual action of making them that was hard, it was knowing g I had to do it. 6:17 They could put all the pieces of their lunch together after that. It was the best thing - I never made a school lunch again.
Thanks for sharing! It’s so true-sometimes just handing off one small task can really ease the mental load. Glad you found a solution that worked for your family! 😊
Blue lines!!! I can not stand black or dark lines that I see in these beautiful notebooks. It does not allow for the contrast I need to see my written work.
I totally get that! Blue lines definitely make it easier to see your writing. Thanks for sharing 😉
You can now choose which views you want an event to show up in - monthly, weekly, daily, or a combination. th-cam.com/video/6jApuWFrx3E/w-d-xo.html
I love how they keep on improving! 🙌 LOVE Artful Agenda
"The most common form of despair is not being who you are"...powerful statement! True! Hmmmm, wondering what "workbook" you put in in @Megan Sumrell, Plan-a-Palooza?😊
🤗🩷
Back-to-school with college kids isn't quite as crazy. Sending one to Spain for the semester. Still have one living at home for his last year of college. The only prep I do with him is remind him to buy his parking permit and order books and then I record his class and work schedule on a weekly planning page so I know when he's on campus or when he's in an online class at home so I don't disturb him. We also discuss packable snack items for the days he's on campus for long periods.
That sounds like a smooth routine! Sending a student abroad must be exciting. Best of luck with the semester!

My criteria for what goes on my monthly calendar is: if I’m planning a vacation, would I plan around this event? If so, it goes on the monthly calendar.
👏😉
Ohhh I really wanted to join the mastering your morning routine or something! Are you gonna have a wait list for the next time you have the training?! 😊 please let us know!
Hey there! There's a waitlist for my annual planning event Plan-a-Palooza, you can register here www.megansumrell.com/plan

Does anyone know if AA will sync with Outlook?
I'm not sure about it, maybe you can find the answer to this here: artfulagenda.com/faq/ 😉
@@the_pink_bee I'll look for that, thanks! I have looked on the website and watched other vids but I can't find it you can add pdf pages to the planner. Is it customizable like that?
Enjoyed the interview. And maybe I won’t spend time now looking into Notion. What was the tool she recommended? Smart ___? I couldn’t catch the second word after Smart
Hi Melinda! The tool Eryn recommends is SmartSuite 😉 www.smartsuite.com/
Voted! You also were in the overall People's Choice category, and I voted for you there too!
That's amazing! Thanks for taking the time to vote Melissa 🩷
Your haircut is very becoming on you, imo! Love it!
Thank you!
Right but in this society where moms don’t have a village.. how do we go to these classes?
I understand your point. It can be tough without a support system. While I don't know your exact situation, maybe there's something that can adjust to it 😉🩷
Paper forever!
Yess! 🙌
Done!
Thank you so much! 🩷
Nice video, keep posting
Thx!
That was great
Thank you Cheryl 😊
Love this

I love my paper planner
Same! 🩷
Just got my new one in! So excited!
🙌
Love a paper planner! ❤
Me too!!
oh Megan I applaud you for jumping around and dancing for the socials. :)

Awesome opportunity! Question: will this differ from the information you give your app? I purchased the app and love the content ❤
Hi Shauna! The content in the TOP Bootcamp is similar to the one in the Pink Bee app as both are based on the same planning system, however it's not the exact same information.
Such good info, but the link for the workbook doesn’t seem to be working?
Hi Paula, not sure why it's not working now.. You can go to frameoflife.co/courses-workshops to find the free resources Kiera has at the moment! 😉
Wow this is powerful. You are so right. Thank you for sharing. Very Thought Provoking.
Glad it was helpful! 🩷
This podcast was totally awesome. I took the assessment in 2013 but Heidi really helped me unpack and explain my results. I'm looking forward to taking the "couples" assesment.
Thank you so much for your kind words! Heidi is great 🙌
This video is excellent! Very helpful. Thank you so much😊
Thank you!
Like with prayer…give it to God then make like Elsa and Let It Go 🤣
lol that's hilarious!! 😂😂
I love this idea. Even though I don't have children I can see how I can still apply the concept. I am retired and my days get very "loosy goosy" I am either out of the house for days or sheltered inside trying to get "stuff" done. If I set up A and B days, I can "schedule" a mix of each. As always, thanks so much for your amazing and valuable tips and tricks (systems and procedures)
Thank you so much for your thoughtful comment! I’m glad you find the tips valuable, and I appreciate your support! 🩷
This is brilliant! I have a hybrid work schedule and my husband is a teacher so he's able to care for our toddler during the summer. Our toddler does get one day with each grandma every week too. I'm thinking I need A, B, and C days based on being in the office, and working from home with our without the whole family home. I love this! It will help me know what days I have more "me time" and when we will want to do family things.
Thank you so much for your kind words! 🌟 It’s wonderful to hear that this video inspired you. Best of luck with your new schedule-I hope it brings you even more clarity and joy in managing your days! 😊
Thank you for posting this! You mentioned it in another video a while back and I was really interested in it. Hearing the details is great!
THANK YOU! I'm glad it was helpful 🩷
As a working mom who's kids have flown the coop, be grateful your kids force you to pull back to play and put white space on your calendar. Once they leave, you need to find other motivators to keep up that summertime vibe lifestyle or you'll just fill it up and work, work, work. Then you might just ask, why not do this summer vibe thing year long? Why just summer? That's true work-life-health harmony!
Thanks for sharing your perspective Jennifer 😊
To answer your question about half days - schools have to been in session a certain number of days (usually 180 or so). Half days count as full days so at the end of the school year, it's a way to get in the number of days to comply with the law. It also gives teachers a bit of extra time to finish closing up their classrooms and files.
Thanks for taking the time to explain it to me 😉
Thank you for this. Looking forward to putting it into practice this summer
Let me know how it goes 🙌
