3 Effective Steps I Took to Budget My Time Better

Ever fall into bed at night thinking, "Where did the day even go?" I used to feel that way all the time. Between kids, cows, and the chaos of farm life, it felt impossible to get even a few moments to myself. But everything shifted when I started to really look at where my time was going—and in today’s episode, I’m walking you through the 3 effective steps I took to budget my time better and finally make room for myself in the day.

These steps aren’t complicated, but they’ve been game changers: first, I started tracking my time in 15-minute blocks to see where the day was actually going. Then I focused on protecting those little pockets of time once I’d found them (which meant setting boundaries, even with my husband!). And finally, I gave myself permission to embrace unstructured time—not every moment has to be productive. If you’ve been craving a bit more space in your day, I hope this chat feels like a breath of fresh air.

Key Points Covered in this episode:

  • How tracking my time in small blocks helped me find free moments I was missing
  • Why protecting time with boundaries made a huge difference
  • The power of unstructured time (and how I plan for it!
  • Letting go of routines that don’t work for this season of life
  • How budgeting my time better made me feel more present, calm, and in control
