    A great mix of value packed bingeable ep, and longer more in depth interviews. And I love the concept of shame free productivity. It can be difficult to change your life, so it’s important to be kind to yourself throughout the process and improve at your own pace. No matter what industry or stage of life you’re in, you’ll find value here! How to clear digital clutter is def something I’ve never seen anyone discuss!

  • Positive, uplifting approach to productivity

    Lisa’s anti-hustle approach to productivity resonates with me and what I want to create in my life. I want to get things done without feeling rushed or obligated. So much inspiration in the Positively Living podcast.

  • Lisa Is the Cheerleader I Didn’t Know I Needed!

    I am so glad I found Positively Living. I'm not someone who listens to many shows about self-help or productivity, so it is significant that Lisa's voice resonates with me. On her show there are plenty of great nuggets about learning how to live a more productive life. However, she sets a baseline by impressing upon us that we should enter into this process with intention and the right mindset. Lisa points us towards understanding what we want to get out of our work and our personal lives, and t... more

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Why ADHD Brains Thrive on Seasonal Planning with Erik Fisher [Re-release]
Q: What would you say to encourage us and to think about what the next step could be or next couple steps?
Erik recommends building self-awareness with bucket lists and someday/maybe lists, and doing periodic brain dumps to identify priorities and concerns. These practices can help people decide what to pursue now and what to defer until a better time.
Why ADHD Brains Thrive on Seasonal Planning with Erik Fisher [Re-release]
Q: Have you noticed there's a satisfaction in being able to do it that way?
Erik says accepting change can be difficult, but recognizing that change is constant makes it easier to adapt, let one phase end, and make positive choices in the next.
Match Your Self-Care to Your Stress with Cassandra Martin-Himmons
Q: What do we do from here? Let's talk about the next step we can take, a simple process for identifying what we need in the moment or how we might want to prioritize if we're feeling all of these.
She suggests first getting curious rather than judgmental, then using Notice, Need, Next: identify what is happening, ask what would help, and choose the simplest action that meets the need and fits available time and energy.
Match Your Self-Care to Your Stress with Cassandra Martin-Himmons
Q: Why is it that not every activity for every kind of stress works?
People respond differently to stress, and needs can shift from day to day with changing circumstances, energy, emotions, and available time. She recommends asking what is needed now and choosing from a varied self-care repertoire.
Three Types of Rest for Managing Stress with Gary Ware [Re-release]
Q: How can someone start incorporating these rest types without sacrificing work?
Start small by adding a five-minute micro-break between meetings, establish a simple power-down ritual, and gradually schedule mezzo blocks or hobby time to create sustainable energy reserves.
