Positively Living®: Shame-Free Productivity Conversations
The Positively Living® Podcast brings you shame-free productivity conversations for the overwhelmed multi-passionate creatives, caregivers, and multi-taskers who never clock out, juggle countless responsibilities, and quietly wonder if there's a better way.
Hosted by Lisa Zawrotny, Productivity Coach and founder of Positively Productive Systems, the show replaces rigid productivity rules with flexible approaches that respect your energy and priorities. Through solo episodes, expert interviews, and live coaching sessions, Lisa covers the topics that actually affect your ability to move forward: stress management, habits and systems, decluttering, self-awareness, boundaries, mindset, entrepreneurship, and more.
This is productivity for real life, helping you breathe easier, move forward sustainably, and make space for what matters most to you.

No matter what challenges we go through in life, I believe there is always a way to not only manage them, but to find a way to thrive. In order to do that, we need to understand what we’re dealing with and what recourse we have. That’s why episode 24 of The Positively Living Podcast is about handling and coping with chronic illness.
In this episode of The Positively Living Podcast, Martha Garland and I are sharing the importance of seeking out the right kind of support and actionable steps you can take right now to support yourself or a loved one who has a chronic illness. Martha and I cover the following topics:
- What it means to live with chronic illness, day in and day out
- Martha’s encouragement for everyone who feels alone and helpless in their illness, there are just as many opportunities to restore their health and life
- How to apply more holistic approaches to chronic illness
- The importance of listening to your body and trusting yourself in the journey of exploring what’s best for you.
This is a topic that is so very personal. If you have resources or suggestions or you found this especially helpful and encouraging, I’d love to know.
Thank you for listening! Be sure to tune in to all the episodes to receive tons of practical tips to create space for what really matters in your life
