Work hard without feeling overwhelmed (and having a meltdown) with productivity expert Donna McGeorge

Feeling overworked and overwhelmed? This one's for you.

We've all been there: you feel like you're working at capacity and yet another thing gets added to your to-do list.

In this episode, Katie speaks with global productivity expert and author, Donna McGeorge, about how to achieve more in less time.

You know that feeling when a meeting gets cancelled? Donna McGeorge wants to help you feel like that every day.

They discuss:

• How we get into the cycle of overwork and overwhelm and how to get ourselves out of it
• The warning signs we can pay attention to when we're getting overwhelmed
• The importance of creating 15% capacity (1.2 hours) in our days
• Our thinking, breathing, live and working spaces and how they can help us be more productive
• And how to get out of your inbox and into our work
