  • Episode 79 – Still Stressed, Letters

    Posted on January 10, 2019 5:00 pm by ksonney 3 Comments

    I have returned from MAGFest, and have a severe backlog. We’ll discuss how that affects me, how it affects Ursula, and what we’re doing to get it all done. And thinking of a backlog, we’ll be reading your letters this week, and getting that done at the very least.

    This week, our Wombat Co-Host has returned, and we discuss how changes in routine can throw us way, way off. This includes changes to schedule, changes in stress levels, and how this impacts the ability to focus.  We will follow this with a fantastic interview with Debra Baker. Enjoy!

    This week, we have the interview from Productivity Alchemy LIVE! at WindyCon 45 on November 10. Before that, through, we discuss some of the challenges of leadership, why Ursula doesn’t work with others, letting go of things you  can delegate, and stepping back when it isn’t working.

    This week we talk about some goals we have moved forward recently. This included the unexpected need to migrate from one hosting provider to another.

    Posted on September 6, 2018 5:00 pm by ksonney 1 Comment

    The focus of this week is on the AMAZING interview I did with my friends Bill and Laura. I do take a moment to discuss taking a day off since I recorded this one on Labor Day here in the US, and have given both the Wombat Co-Host and the Teenage Test Subject the week off.

  • Episode 58 – Joining the Cult, Letters

    Posted on August 2, 2018 5:00 pm by ksonney 4 Comments

    We spend a lot of time this week talking about talking – or rather, talking about speaking in public – since WorldCon is just around the corner and the Wombat Test Subject (author Ursula Vernon) has to prep not one, but two speeches she probably won’t have to give. We follow that up with Kevin’s initial foray into Bullet Journalling, and wrap it all up with your letters and comments!
