A Full Calendar Doesn’t Equal a Full Life

Lori Whitney Oberbroeckling Episode 274

If your calendar is packed from morning to night — but you still feel behind, overwhelmed, or disconnected — this episode is going to feel like a deep breath.

Today is Day 6 in our special New Year series:

✨ 10 Planning Lessons I Wish I Knew Sooner

(So You Don’t Have to Learn the Hard Way)

Across these 10 episodes, we’re rethinking planning for busy, ambitious moms — so life doesn’t feel like constant rushing, guilt, and exhaustion. Instead, we’re creating plans that feel grounded, flexible, intentional, and doable.

And today’s big truth is this:

👉 A full calendar does NOT equal a full life.

In this episode, we talk about:

✔ why busyness can become an identity
 ✔ how constant commitments quietly drain your joy
 ✔ the difference between activity and alignment
 ✔ why saying “yes” often means saying “no” to something that matters
 ✔ practical ways to create margin, presence, and space again

Because more commitments won’t create more meaning — but more alignment will.

And when you begin to build space into your life, everything else becomes lighter: your mood, your relationships, your goals, and your energy.

If this conversation resonates, and you want to build a year that doesn’t run your life, join me on January 11 for the live:
