I often think of one of my first clients who started a session completely out-of-breath — coffee mug shaking, Slack pinging nonstop in the background. Running ops for a hyper‑growth startup, her calendar looked like a Jenga tower one pull from collapse. Meetings jammed edge-to-edge, no room to breathe. 

She leaned back and said, half‑joking but not really, “My calendar's a war zone and I'm losing.”

She was realizing that that war zone had already claimed what mattered most: her focus, her patience, her love of the work.

But she was on the verge of discovering a simple tactic that would change everything.
