The Everyday MAGIC podcast is a lifestyle podcast with a "friend, here's what worked for me" approach with practical action steps on how to thrive at home and in business.
Its mission is to help women turn daily overwhelm into Everyday MAGIC, so they can fully enjoy their life.
Everyone deserves to realize how their life can be meaningful, aesthetically pleasing, goal-oriented, intentional, and consistent, aka MAGIC.
Bestselling author of Everyday MAGIC and former Miss Liberia USA, Mattie James is transforming the idea of home as a burdened chore to a safe space where you get to build the systems, routines, and confidence necessary to live the life you want.
Every week, Mattie will dive deep into topics from the book, like self-care, motherhood, work/life balance and goal setting, how to make it MAGIC and make it your own purposefully.
She'll remind you that you're more than enough, don't have to be everything to everyone and handling home matters just as much as handling business.
It's giving weekly encouragement plus practical advice in MAGIC way.
This is the Everyday MAGIC podcast.

006: How To Make Your To-Do List Work for You
When you misuse it, your to-do list can do more harm than good.
Just because you have a to-do list doesn’t mean things will get done. It’s not about doing every single thing, every single day. That just isn’t realistic or sustainable.
On average, people have about 15 projects going on at a time.
Here’s why to-do lists work: They help us maintain awareness of our tasks, which makes us clear and focused, and therefore, we get things done.
But they work best when we keep things simple and relevant.
Why are to-do lists important? What do they do for us?
They help us have…
Less stress
Less anxiety
Priorities in order
Sense of accomplishment
Memory
Productivity
Clear plans
Motivation
Time for what matters
