Powerback 229: A Simple Strategy to Make Progress on Your To-Do List

Feeling overwhelmed by your never-ending to-do list? You’re not alone. It’s easy to get stuck in a cycle of overthinking, shutting down, or avoiding the tasks that actually move us forward. In this episode, we’re breaking down a simple yet powerful strategy to help you regain momentum, take action, and finally start crossing things off your list—without the stress and burnout.

This episode is interactive, so grab a pen and paper (or your notes app), because you’ll be taking tangible steps toward lightening your mental load and making real progress. Whether it’s small tasks that have piled up or big goals that feel impossible to start, you’ll learn how to tackle them with clarity and ease.

If you're tired of feeling stuck and want a fresh, practical approach to getting things done, this is for you.

“Motivation doesn’t show up when you need it. It follows action. You have to start moving first.”

What You’ll Learn in This Episode:

• Why overwhelm builds up and how to break free from it.
• The 30-Minute or Less vs. 30-Day or More strategy to organize your tasks.
• How small, intentional steps create big momentum.
• The power of writing things down and getting them out of your head.
• How to stop waiting for motivation and start taking action now.
• Why crossing things off your list feels so good (and how to use that to your advantage).

“Writing things down isn’t just about remembering—it’s about freeing up space in your brain so you can actually breathe.”
