Mastering the Art of Time: Success, ADHD, and the stories that shape us w/ Mackenzie Green

Today I talk to my friend Mackenzie Green, who is a truly amazing individual, about her journey in life, from being Miss USA DC to becoming an MBA to her current role as VP of social at WhoWhatWear as well as her personal journey of self development and how she manages time with ADHD. We also talk about her dad, Ernest Green, a member of the Little Rock Nine and a civil rights icon and how he has influenced her journey. We also talk about our shared love of reading and how it has shaped Mackenzie's success. 0:00 Mackenzie’s introduction. 4:34 Reverse engineering her way to Miss USA 9:19 The beauty queen to business school pipeline. 13:29 How to know what you want in your career? 17:51 How do you plan your time? 23:31 Alexa and Google Calendar.
