Small Pockets of Time: Can They Really Make You Productive? Part 1 – E16

Dr. Celia | Time Management Coach for Mom Entrepreneurs | Psychiatrist Episode 16

Do you ever sit down with 15 minutes to spare and wonder, “What’s even the point?” Discover how to be productive everyday in the small pockets of time moms in business often overlook, even while carrying the mental load of motherhood.

What We Cover in This Episode:

  • Why most time management advice for business moms doesn’t reflect real life
  • The “mental reset” that lightens the mental load of a working mom
  • How to match your energy and time so short windows actually move you forward

Episode Summary:
Those tiny pockets of time in your day? They might feel too small to matter—but they can actually become your most powerful business builders.

In this episode, I’m answering a listener’s question about how to really use the small pockets of time between school runs, snack requests, and meltdowns. Instead of fighting against mom life, I’ll show you the two steps that make all the difference: the mental reset to clear your head and the energy + time check that helps you choose the right task for your current capacity.

As a mompreneur coach, I know moms in business don’t need another rigid schedule. You need a way to get time back and feel good about what you accomplish—without adding more pressure.

This is Part 1 of a two-part series: today’s focus is on thoughts, emotions and beliefs, and next week I’ll share my task-matching system so you’ll know exactly what to work on in every situation.
