Having a full to-do list might make us feel like we’re getting more done. But are we actually being productive or are we just being ‘busy’? In this episode, Aileen and Jules discuss intentional productivity, finding systems that work for you, and the importance of allowing flexibility to grow and evolve.

Jules Acree is a YouTuber, founder of The Homebodies, and writer of the Slow Brew Sunday newsletter & podcast. Her mission is to help people find more ease in our fast-paced digital age, through her lens of mindfulness, self-care, and intentional productivity.
