Do you feel like you’re always stuck in the swirl of urgent tasks—emails, client work, admin—and your bigger, more strategic projects never get the time or focus they deserve?
Maybe you keep waiting for “extra time” to appear in your week, but somehow, it never does.
For so many leaders, the things that would actually create long-term growth and sustainability always lose out to the urgent, the loud, and the immediate.
In this episode, we’ll talk about why your projects keep getting pushed aside—and the practical steps you can take to finally create space for the work that moves your mission forward.
You’ll learn:
✔️ Why urgent tasks always crowd out strategic work (and how to break the cycle)
✔️ The importance of protecting CEO-level time for deep work and leadership decisions
✔️ Practical ways to restructure your calendar, meetings, and priorities to make space for big-picture projects
✔️ How creating intentional space for strategic work benefits not just you, but your whole team and mission
You’ll leave this episode with steps to reclaim clarity, focus, and the margin you need to lead from vision rather than survival mode.
