The Productivity Mindset

Most high-achieving women have a productivity mindset. 

In short, we are socialized to believe that our worth and our success is tied up in how much we do, including in how much we do for other people and whether other people are pleased with what and how much we’ve done.  

It’s next to impossible to avoid. And this mindset doesn’t serve us for so many reasons.

If left unchecked it:

▫️ Contributes to exhaustion, overworking, and burnout. 

▫️ Stifles your creativity.

▫️ Drowns out your own wants, needs, and preferences, both for the present and the future.

▫️ Trades quantity for quality.

▫️ Keeps you from being present and just trying to keep your head above water.

▫️ Prevents you from recognizing your value beyond your hard work and your output.

▫️ Dampens your ideas and your willingness to share them.

▫️ Prioritizes other people at your expense.

▫️ Stops you from earning more.

▫️ Makes it impossible to rest or relax.

▫️ Has us making all of our decisions from fear and a lack of self-trust. 

The best news? This mindset can be shifted to one that actually serves you. So you can show up in this world the way that you want. 

It won’t make life feel perfect. Nothing can. It won’t make you perfect. Nothing can. You will always be human. And that’s a good thing. But you can create the life that you want. No perfection needed.  

A ❤️ note to you: I can help you shift your productivity mindset to one that will have you feeling more calm and confident and less overwhelmed, stuck, and anxious - all while still leaving enough spaciousness for being a messy human.
