Plan Like a CEO: 40 Hours is enough. The Weekly Structure That Keeps Me Out of the Weeds
Episode description
Tired of feeling busy but never actually moving the needle?
In this solo episode, I’m pulling back the curtain on the weekly planning structure that keeps me out of the weeds and fully focused on what matters most.
Whether you’re juggling client work, team management, or 1,000 Slack notifications — this episode will show you how to take back control of your week using CEO-level planning.
You’ll learn:
✅ How to dedicate days to specific energies (like marketing, finance, or deep work)
✅ Why every founder needs a no-meeting zone (mine’s non-negotiable)
✅ The game-changing strategy session I do every week (and how we bake this into our Virtual PA support)
✅ How to fit thinking, strategy, and momentum into a 40-hour workweek
✅ And the simple rhythms that help high-performers win the week
This isn’t about hustle.
It’s about clarity, cadence, and choosing what to focus on — before your calendar and everybody else puts their demands on you.
If you're ready to step into the real CEO role in your business, focussing on absolutely the right things, this one’s for you.
🎧 Hit play and let's plan like a CEO.
