This is for busy professionals who
love their work but Resent the stress
If you're sick of drowning in the daily grind here are 4 bits of good news...
1.
You're not alone.
2.
There is a better way.
3.
It's proven to work!
4.
It's ready for YOU!
and guess what...
This system maximizes your productivity and performance and is easy to use. It adjusts to fit YOUR needs and preferences. Join today if you're a busy professional, juggling multiple roles, have a demanding career (maybe even a side-hustle) and/or have ADHD.
Ever have days when everything clicks? When you fire on all cylinders?
Do you want more of those high-performance days?
Then, you're in the right place!
Once you know how to reach that optimal state (it's not likely how you've been taught!) then you can harness its power to recreate flow every day!
You'll get more done in less time
You'll have freedom to take time off without guilt
You'll know how to shut down drama, distractions, and interruptions
You'll enjoy your work again
To Take Back Your Workweek means you'll have no more...
After-hour work blocks to catch up. Working weekends, late nights or early mornings can be a CHOICE, not a NECESSITY
Disappearing days when you're so busy, but yet nothing important gets done
Bouts of procrastination because there is so much on your plate and you have no idea where to start
Sleepless nights because your mind is racing, trying to remember what you forgot to do, or because you're anxious about how you're going to do it all tomorrow
Take Back Your Workweeks
Take Back Your Weekends
Take Back Your Power
Take Back Your LIFE!
Allison’s system is not a Band Aid approach; it is a life change that can be made easily. Practical steps to be more productive during your workday, so you can have your weekends back.
- Traci Boland, C.A.I.B. Partner Ontario West Insurance Brokers
My clients consistently feel on top of their unruly to-do list and eliminate procrastination. Now it's your turn!
All you have to do is watch the short training videos and implement the system to match your personality and circumstances and voila:
You'll get more done in less time
You'll have freedom to take time off without guilt
You'll shut down drama, distractions, and interruptions
You'll have extra time in your workdays to innovate, create, and find joy again!
Are you ready to...
STOP Working after-hours. It's unacceptable to let an out-of-control schedule force you have to sacrifice your personal time. Imagine working weekends, late nights or early mornings because it's a CHOICE, not a required.
STOP Letting days disappear without getting priorities done. When you're too busy, it can feel like the real important tasks and strategies slip and keep getting pushed to tomorrow (and yet tomorrow never comes!)
STOP Procrastinating. Procrastination drains your capacity to do your best work. If you're not working, relax; if you are, get to work! Inside this program are the process to appens when there's so much on your plate that you don't know where to start, OR when you resent what's on your plate and thus it feels daunting
STOP worrying about work instead of sleeping. The right productivity system you can trust means your mind doesn't have to worry about tomorrow's tasks.

You spend 1/3 of your life (or more) working. If you're unhappy, consistently overwhelmed or stressed by your workload, then you need a new system or your patterns will keep repeating. That leads to regret.
I hear stories like these all the time...
can you relate?
You spend 1/3 of your life (or more) working.
If you're unhappy, consistently overwhelmed or stressed by your workload,
then you need a new system or your patterns will keep repeating.
I hear stories like these all the time...
can you relate?
There's always too much to do, too many priorities, and too little time
YES - exactly. The more successful you are, the more you're going you'll feel this way. Time doesn't expand, you have to expand your capacity to do more in less time. You need a system that supports the many hats you wear.
I love what I do, but it's Not fun anymore, I'm sick of the grind. If it doesn't get better, I may have to quit
When you feel burned out, quitting may seem like the only answer, it's not. If your happiness, stress levels and enjoyment at work rely on other people communicating better, picking up balls they drop, or your task list getting smaller - you're screwed. Those factors rarely change.
I CAN'T GET MY WORK DONE during the day, so I work weekends, late nights or early mornings to catch up
You're not alone. Distractions, interruptions and endless meetings are stealing your potential to be in your Sweet Spot of Optimal Performance, Productivity and Profitability. Those are the easy answers. What about the hidden Barriers to Performance that are making your work harder than it needs to be? More on that soon...
Here's my story...
I didn't have a choice.
I had to fix my stress and be more productive or I had to go on disability supports.
I'll never forget the moment my neurologist told me, "Allison, you need to re-evaluate your expectations for your life. Your nerve pain will never go away. You'll never work full time again and it's time we talk about you going on disability."
I knew quitting on my hopes and dreams was NOT the answer, but, I was completely BURNED OUT! Between the nerve pain, grieving loved ones, injuries, financial challenges and a nasty inner critic, it felt like I was stepping into battle everyday. I was.
Days vanished. I felt busy, but the important stuff wasn't getting done. (You know, the stuff that actually creates a quality of life with people you love and makes money!)
Instead, I got serious about fixing my workweeks. With only two-to-five hours of functionality a day, I had to maximize my outputs per hour to get more done in less time. Then I could take guilt-free recovery time to heal my heart and my body.
I tried every productivity hack I could find, but I was consistently disappointed. Ultimately, I created this system that I am sharing with you. The answer to performance, productivity, profitability, and personal fulfillment is found much deeper than the latest shiny productivity hack or fancy way to track your tasks. It requires a fresh way of thinking that will transform your approach and free your emotional connection to your workload.
This system has been proven to work, time and time again - it will work for you, too!
Learn from my mistakes. Please, don't wait until you burn out or life forces you to fix your workweek!

Do Like Tasks Together....
This is a VERY popular system called Getting Things Done by David Allen. With respect, I disagree with it. In theory it's great, in practice it's outdated. It's not a whole solution.
I did this for quite some time, but the system never worked long-term. The same is true for many of my clients. The idea is to group all like tasks together - phone calls, emails, reports etc. The filing system meant there were too many places for tasks to get lost.
Delegate, Delete, Do....
You can't delete or delegate your way out of an overloaded to-do list. This sounds simple, but again, it's not a full solution. Some people don't have anyone to delegate to. This approach doesn't address how to effectively manage the remaining tasks.
Buffer Days, Power Days,
Free Days...
Another popular time management theory is by Strategic Coach founder Dan Sullivan. Many high-level executives strive for this system, but consistently fall short. If achieved, it's short-lived. Plus, it's not duplicatable beyond the top tier of an organization.
NO WONDER YOU'RE FRUSTRATED...
With the Right tools and Mindset You Can Transform Your workweeks from feeling frustrated, overwhelmed, and resenting the Grind to...
• Reclaim Your Schedule
• Do More in Less Time
• Get Deep Work Blocks to Focus on Priorities
• Feel Confident That Your Workload is Doable
• Have Extra Space for What Matters To You
• Enjoy your work again and Ignore Any Drama
• Reconnect with Your Purpose

You're not failing if you're stressed by your workload - you've just been given the wrong tactics and expectations
At first, all I found were platitudes and partial solutions. It took me thousands of hours of studying multiple methodologies to create my own. Eventually I discovered...
why you can never feel caught up, and you won't, and how to be okay with that
I remember a first call with a coaching client, she started to cry. "I feel so guilty. I can't get caught up." The truth is you never will. Tasks come off the list, more tasks get added. There is no magic finish line. You need to make peace with that.
how unrealistic expectations are at the root of many frustrating days
Having unrealistic expectations of yourself or others is just one of a very long list of Barriers to Performance that steal our performance, productivity, and profitability. It's the vulnerability of the human experience that needs our attention.
why a traditional to-do list is ineffective, causes unnecessary stress
Seriously, no matter how much you LOVE checking tasks off your list, a traditional to-do list is NOT the answer for optimal performance. The list has no context, no prioritization, it muddles everything together in a big long list. There is a better way.
That Tasks, obstacles and adversities each need a different strategy
This is one of my signature concepts. Society buckets everything under the word stress. It's an easy word that is completely disempowering. Once you understand how to classify everything you're dealing with you'll know exactly what to do next.
That There's a difference between good stress and destructive stress
Good stress drives success. Without it, you'd be bored and uninspired. Destructive stress causes anxiety and overwhelm, lost objectivity, and sub-optimal performance.
Harness one, delete the other.
That time-management and capacity-management are not the same
Each of us has a limited capacity to do, think, feel, and be each day. Beyond the "doing," it's important to understand what really drains capacity. It's the emotional, mental, and physical processing that absorb most of a day's bandwidth.
These principles lead to time freedom.
I'll show you how.
It wasn’t until I learned Allison's system, that I realized it wasn't the number of tasks I had to accomplish that was overwhelming, it was my relationship with those tasks.
Understanding how to classify tasks and obstacles to do them faster and then recognizing the need to heal from my adversities, put things into perspective and completely changed my approach. I stopped doing things I didn't need to be doing and became happier at work because of Allison's system. I HIGHLY recommend Allison's message.

Allison's course led me through a step-by-step process to manage my overwhelm and re-align my priorities. I became far more conscious of how I was using my time, where I was wasting it, when I was unnecessarily procrastinating, and how I could take back control.
Her speaking and coaching style is so relatable. Right from the beginning I felt like she just "got" where I was coming from.
Allison’s program showed me that I can do it all – just without the stress!

I did the same thing. I’ve invested thousands of dollars trying to find the perfect systems to make me happier, more productive, and less stressed. Nothing worked.
Since I studied so many philosophies, my system is influenced by the best of the best. I've compiled an approach that can work universally. Plus, my signature concepts about how to relate to your workload - those you can't learn from anyone else. Those matter the most.
No, you don’t have to do anything!
The Task Circle will take your love for checking tasks off of your to-do list to a whole new level! It will give context to your list. This program is not a productivity hack. It's a way of thinking and relating to your tasks, then a systematic way to get what you need to have done, done. Even if you stick with your traditional to-do list, I promise you’ll never look at it the same way again!
My cheeky answer is - does it matter? How much time are you willing to invest in order to stop the destructive stress cycle and discover a system that will result in smoother, more productive workdays? If I said it’d take you 100 hours, would it be worth it? Yes. BUT – it won’t take you 100 hours!
The videos lessons total 2 hours and 22 minutes. The worksheets and implementing the plan will take about 2 more hours or so. Implementing the system will take minutes a day.
That depends on the structure of your current workweek, your goals and how well you implement the program
The first goal is to leverage the system to eliminate overtime hours that you don’t want to work anymore - like late nights, early mornings and weekends.
After you've achieved that, then the sky is the limit.
Some of my clients are aiming to cut their regular work hours in half!
First, that's awesome. Thanks for being in the audience, I hope you loved it! This will feel like a continuation of the speech.
A few of my concepts will overlap. For example, I typically touch on my Problem-Solving Framework and the Continuum of Challenges Method during speaking events, because they are the foundation of my philosophy.
As for the Task Circle and how to fix your workweeks, I rarely go deep into this material from stage. This course shows you a very systematic approach. If you've been through it in a training session, I guarantee you would know it. So no, it will not feel like an overlap.
The more people in your life who follow the same philosophies and systems, the easier it will be to implement your solution.

If you lead a team or are planning a conference, let's talk. I have several programs that can assist you, your colleagues and your team members to be less stressed and spend more time in their optimal zone of Performance, Productivity, and Profitability.
YES!
YES!
YES. It will work for you whether you do or do not have Adult ADHD. I have ADHD and many of my clients have Adult ADHD, too.
I developed these concepts before I understood why it was so hard for me to stay focused and track my tasks, or why I always turned to a new system. This system has stuck for years. There’s enough flexibility in the system, that it will work for you regardless. If you do not relate to those with ADHD, that's okay too. Overcoming an overwhelming to-do list is the same for all of us.
I’ve invested thousands of dollars in other time management programs, why is this different?
I did the same thing. I’ve invested thousands of dollars trying to find the perfect systems to make me happier, more productive, and less stressed. Nothing worked.
Since I studied so many philosophies, my system is influenced by the best of the best. I've compiled an approach that can work universally. Plus, my signature concepts about how to relate to your workload - those you can't learn from anyone else. Those matter the most.
I LOVE my traditional to-do list, do I have to give that up to use this system?
No, you don’t have to do anything!
The Task Circle will take your love for checking tasks off of your to-do list to a whole new level! It will give context to your list. This program is not a productivity hack. It's a way of thinking and relating to your tasks, then a systematic way to get what you need to have done, done. Even if you stick with your traditional to-do list, I promise you’ll never look at it the same way again!
How long will this program take to complete?
My cheeky answer is - does it matter? How much time are you willing to invest in order to stop the destructive stress cycle and discover a system that will result in smoother, more productive workdays? If I said it’d take you 100 hours, would it be worth it? Yes. BUT – it won’t take you 100 hours!

How much time will I save in my workweek?

Can I share this with a friend / colleague, or can you teach it to my team?
Absolutely. In fact, the more people in your life who follow the same philosophies and systems, the more it will support you in the implementation of it.
Your log-in credentials are unique to you. While I can't stop you from sharing, I have kept the price point reasonable to make it assessable to everyone. It's how I earn my living , so I hope you'll respect that and encourage others to purchase their own licence.
If you lead a team, let's talk. I have several programs that can assist you, your colleagues and your team to be less stressed and spend more time in your Sweet Spot of Performance, Productivity, and Profitability.
I like to track my tasks using a digital system, will this still work?
YES!
I like to track my tasks using paper, will this still work?
YES!
I have Adult ADHD, will this work for me?
YES. It will. I know that because I have ADHD and many of my clients have Adult ADHD, too. I developed these concepts before I understood why it was so hard for me to stay focused and track my tasks. There’s enough flexibility in the system, that it will work for you.
I do not have Adult ADHD, will this work for me?
Yes. It will. I serve people with and without ADHD. The principles remain the same, no matter what. Overcoming an overwhelming to-do list is the same for all of us. You may have an easier time adopting and sticking with new systems.
