    Posted on September 14, 2017 5:00 pm by ksonney 3 Comments[Post 1913]

    This week, we take the plunge: the Wombat Test Subject (AKA Ursula Vernon) will try using a Bullet Journal. And as a lead up to this, we talk a little more in depth about how a Bullet Journal is structured, and what the appeal is for so many people. And then before we go, we’ll read and answer some listener letters. I hope you enjoy it!

  • Episode 6 – SMART Goals, Carlota

    Posted on July 13, 2017 6:00 pm by ksonney 6 Comments[Post 810]

    This week, we’re going to talk to our Wombat Test Subject about the goals she put together over the last week, and discuss creating good goals. She also has a rant, unrelated to her goals! Our interview this week is with our friend Carlota, who organizes several teams inside her organization, and we end with a letter from a listener asking about handling “list anxiety.”

    (If the audio on this one is a bit soft, it is due to our new recording equipment, which I am still getting the hang of.)
