The one change that could fix your timeblocks Dec 22, 2025

Show notes

In this episode of the Purpose Driven Mom Show, productivity coach Cara Harvey talks about the one change that could completely fix your time blocks. If you've been time blocking but still feel scattered, overwhelmed, or like your schedule never quite works, you're not alone. Cara breaks down why this happens and how a small shift in how you structure your time can make a big difference.

This episode was inspired by a real coaching call where Cara audited a member's time blocks and uncovered what was missing. She explains why not every goal needs to be worked on weekly and how batching tasks monthly or biweekly can reduce mental load. By planning ahead instead of constantly reacting, you can create a schedule that actually supports your life.
