Many of us multi-passionates find ourselves in a constant battle of overwhelm and the draining feeling of having too much to do with too little time to do it. This is exactly how Naomi Lerman felt when she came to me seeking support with her decision fatigue and chaotic context switching while building her purpose-led business and raising her family. This week's episode 290 of the Positively LivingⓇ Podcast is a strategy call where I help Naomi Lerman end overwhelm through intentional scheduling.

Naomi Lerman is a certified trauma-informed coach and founder of Victory Dance Coaching and the Victory Dance Method. A survivor and performer, she helps women heal from sexual trauma without reliving the past, reconnecting mind, body, and soul to build safety, joy, and self-trust. Through coaching, movement, and practical daily tools, Naomi guides clients to reclaim their voice, design aligned lives, and celebrate bold, embodied freedom.

In this episode of the Positively LivingⓇ Podcast, you’ll see how I coach Naomi to create a truly value-aligned schedule by leveraging her innate strengths and unlocking the core mindset shifts needed to foster ease, harmony, and self-worth.

Naomi and I cover the following topics:

Understanding how personality, strengths, and values impact productivity.
The critical mindset shift of acknowledging and honoring the season of life you’re in.
Adopting the full task approach by bookending each task with prep and processing time.
Broadening your capacity scope to look beyond the weekly calendar.
Implementing an intentional closeout routine at the end of each day.

The ultimate goal of productivity is not simply getting more done, but reaching the end of the day without questioning your worth. Ready to book a Clarity Call of your own? Head to https://positivelyproductive.com/plpclarity to get started.
