Hey, I’m Kayla Fahey-Ahrndt, MPH, MLS(ASCP)SBB…but you can call me KFA! I’ve got 12+ years of professional healthcare leadership experience, and I have 9+ years of management experience. I’m a mama of 3 littles, wife and best friend to my hubby who is also in healthcare, and coffee and planner obsessed.
When I first stepped into my first professional leadership role, I was promoted quickly! At the time, I was a new mama and had way less experience than those I was leading. I knew I needed to learn and grow in order to succeed in my role.
I lacked work-life balance and had no boundaries. I experienced burnout quickly by trying to people please and do everything myself. I worked long hours and my relationships suffered as a result.
I finally realized that I needed simple, effective strategies to help me get organized and manage my competing priorities.
I created my own daily management tool which helped me get organized, manage stress, achieve work-life integration. I quickly became the go-to leader for innovative healthcare leadership, and I was promoted again!
If you are ready to implement sustainable systems and strategies to help you get organized, ditch the burnout, and finally get the recognition you deserve, grab your coffee or bubbly and press play on my show while you rock your spreadsheets! It’s time to dive in!

2025 Year in Review: The Systems, Mindsets, and Leadership Lessons That Mattered Most
What if the biggest leadership lesson of 2025 wasn’t about doing more — but about doing less, better?
In this 2025 Year in Review episode of the Get Organized at Work podcast, I’m reflecting on the most-downloaded episodes of the year and the leadership themes that resonated most with listeners. From building calm, effective work systems to redefining productivity, consistency, and career growth, this episode pulls together the insights that mattered most in real workplaces.
You’ll hear:
The top-performing leadership and productivity episodes of 2025
Why systems like OneNote, Kanban boards, and leader standard work resonated so strongly
The shift from hustle culture to calm, sustainable leadership
How consistency beats intensity when it comes to career advancement
What these trends tell us about the future of leadership in 2026
If you’re a high-achieving professional, manager, or emerging leader who wants to get organized at work without burning out, this episode will help you reflect, reset, and move forward with clarity.
🎯 Perfect for leaders who want to:
Reduce overwhelm at work
Build systems that support promotion and visibility
Lead with confidence, boundaries, and balance
Create consistency even on hard days
As we head into 2026, this episode serves as both a reflection and a roadmap — reminding you that you don’t need more hustle to be a great leader. You need the right systems, rhythms, and expectations.
