You block your calendar.

You try to stay focused.

You tell yourself today’s the day you’ll finally catch up.

But then the messages roll in. Someone needs help. A fire pops up. And suddenly, the work that actually matters gets pushed... again.

In this episode of The Manager Track podcast, Ramona gets real about why time management feels so hard, especially for managers who genuinely want to support their teams and be seen as collaborative. It’s not about you doing it wrong. It’s about the unspoken expectations in teams or organizations that make it tough to say no, push back, or slow down.

What we’ll talk about:

- The quiet pressure to always be available

- Why collaboration culture can make focused work feel “selfish”

- How to say no (without sounding like you're not a team player)

- What it really means when we say time management is pain management

If you’re constantly juggling, second-guessing, or running on fumes, this one’s for you. You’re not alone, and there’s a better way.

If this resonates, check it out on our Website,Spotify,Apple Podcasts and Youtube.
