Description

Do you start Monday with a plan or a pile? CEO Hours is my weekly 45-minute ritual for stepping out of the day-to-day and leading my business from above it: brain dump, audit, big three, schedule, and a quick vibe check.

IN THIS EPISODE

  • What CEO Hours are, and why busy isn't the same as leading

  • Step 3: your big three, the tasks that actually move the business forward
  • Step 4: scheduling by energy, clustering calls, and protecting white space
  • Step 5: the vibe check for how you want to show up this week
