Most planning systems assume we’re machines — consistent, linear, endlessly available. But real humans, especially neurodivergent humans, run on rhythms: changing energy, fluctuating focus, sensory needs, and nervous system capacity.

In this short guided practice, Shannon teaches you how to plan your week based on energy, not hours or ideals. You’ll learn how to notice your natural patterns, map tasks into energy zones, and create a weekly flow that feels realistic, sustainable, and kind.

In This Episode

• A grounding arrival practice to check in with your current energy
• How to identify your natural rhythms: high-, medium-, and low-energy zones
• Why most planning “fails” are actually mismatches between tasks and capacity
• How to map your week using energy patterns instead of rigid schedules
• A gentle reframe: consistency comes from alignment, not discipline
• A closing reminder that sustainable planning starts with honesty, not perfection

• You don’t plan well by forcing tasks into time slots — you plan well by matching tasks to the energy you actually have.
• Your body already has an internal rhythm; planning works better when you cooperate with it instead of overriding it.
• High-energy windows are for strategy and complex thinking.
• Medium-energy windows are for collaboration, planning, and flexible work.
• Low-energy windows are for admin, maintenance, grounding, and rest.
• When your energy leads and your time follows, planning becomes easier, steadier, and more sustainable.
