#388 - Productivity Isn't About Doing More. It's About Doing What Matters.

from The CPA MOMS Podcast · host Nicole Kehl

Productivity doesn't mean working more hours or grinding yourself into exhaustion. In this week's episode, Nicole Kehl, CPA, challenges the deeply ingrained hustle culture of the accounting industry and offers a fresh framework for what productivity can actually look like. She shares a personal story from the early days of building her firm as a stay-at-home mom, when staying up late to work left her nodding off at her desk and missing precious mornings with her kids. That wake-up call led her to discover a better way. This episode kicks off a multi-part productivity series built around three key components: rhythm, planning systems (what Nicole calls "existence systems"), and integrity. If you're tired of the to-do list that never gets shorter, this series was made for you. Enjoyed this episode?
