The Lazy Genius Podcast

Once a quarter, I share the things that have been saving my life that season, and I hope it’s encouragement for you all to make your own list. I just love how this practice helps us stay grounded where we are, pay attention to small things that matter, and just find more joy.

I’m delighted to welcome Jenna and Angela back to the show today! They joined me on the show for a special edition of Office Hours to celebrate joining their new podcast network. I asked if they’d like to do it again, and they said yes!

You guys! This show is 10 years old. This week is our tenth birthday, and I cannot believe I’ve been making this show for as long as my daughter has been alive. Today, I’m going to share some of your own memories of the show and things you’ve learned as well as my own, and we’re just going to have a big ol’ lovefest. I’m so grateful we get to celebrate 10 years!

If your calendar feels like it's yelling at you, you're not alone. Welcome to Maycember. It's end-of-the-year energy, but in May. Instead of trying to fix your whole schedule, let's look at one week at a time.

In this episode, I'll walk you through a simple way to declutter your week that you can use now or anytime you need a breather.

We have never done an episode like this before, and I’m so excited to do it today. I know an AMA isn’t like Truth or Dare at a sleepover (spoiler alert: I always picked Truth!), but it feels like that kind of fun. We’re all just eating our popcorn in cozy pants and chatting about nothing important. We’re talking about desert island snacks and how I came up with my kids’ names and how I became friends with other authors and so many more.
