When you don't know where to start, getting going can be impossible. Being neurodivergent also means we approach tasks the wrong way around for our brains to work at their best. We bring out "the list". We optimistically start at the top, attempt to work down but often never get to what we need to do. We also carry on adding things to the bottom of the page, sometimes before we've crossed one thing off the top.
We then rewrite and reorder the list, rinse and repeat. We get committed to a task because we feel we can't transition away from what we ought to be doing - it was at the top of the list, so it's my priority? Right?
Wrong. Writing lists makes us feels productive, but simultaneously consumes significant bandwidth.
With a unique blend of Five Perspectives, Joey will coach you through a framework to prioritise what matters. From opening up your horizon to a wider view than just a list, you will begin to sift through to what is important, what is a priority, what aligns with your purpose and vision, and what you can delegate to free you up get the things that matter done.
This workshop will give you time to remember and reflect that each of us are unique, that we need a different system and support to neurotypical people.

This workshop is for you if...
Anyone who feels like they're drowning and doesn't know where to start
A refresh on recognising what stage of life you are in
If you're stuck in a rut and need to shake things up
Want to explore what your purpose and vision and how aligning your tasks to support you makes decision making easier
We'll cover...
When you have no energy left to get into action, what truly matters
How to balance time, energy and tasks
What can you do now, what needs to pause, what fills your cup, what does an active 'Nope, not doing it' feel like
Capturing thought bubbles when they appear, so you can park them to come back to later
Recognising that a routine and a to-do list are two different things is another. If you're going to change the beds each Monday, you don't need to write it down.
You'll leave with...
A system that supports how your brain collects and stores information
When to layer in the support by understanding what matters, what doesn't and when to call in reinforcements
