  • Useful and Comforting

    Productivity Alchemy is my new “comfort listen” podcast. I like learning how other people think, also the banter, and occasional tangents onto special interests (chickens!)

  • Kevin, I'm very behind so i just listened to this. Ok, I started it but could not finish. Your friend is likely a lovely person. In my field, listening to her, there is a lot there where her words are ableist and full of toxic positivity. There is a lot that is correct and useful and could be phrased in ways that do not include the challenging language. I'll post more as I listen and will send you an update soonish.

  • Great and eclectic podcast!

    I started listening because I was interested in Ursula’s ADHD chat, which was and is great. I loved and empathised deeply with Kevin’s homage to back to school stationery in Episode 159.

  • Encouraging in all the good ways

    Practical, big-hearted, flexible, & funny. Try something, change something, and hear how other interesting people try to get, remain, or return to being productive.
