    101. LISTEN TO THIS BEFORE GOING BACK TO SCHOOL | heres how youre gonna pull yourself back together before school starts

    What if going back to school didn’t have to feel so overwhelming? A new school year can be exciting, but getting back into a routine, staying organized, and balancing everything you have going on can also be a lot. You don’t need to completely change your life or become a perfectly productive person overnight. Sometimes, a few small changes can make a really big difference. socials: instagram: @theglowupguidepodcast pinterest: @theglowupguidepodcast youtube: @theglowupguide-p6m blog: theglowupguideblog.com

    92. GET A 4.0, SLEEP, AND A SOCIAL LIFE | yes its possible because if i can do it you can too

    High school often feels like a constant juggling act with academics, extracurriculars, goals, relationships, and everything in between. All while being told you should somehow “do it all” without falling apart. In this episode we unpack what balance actually looks like beyond productivity culture and perfect schedules. I walk through the systems and mindset shifts that make a busy life feel manageable: how to do a time audit that actually shows where your time goes, how to prioritize based on what genuinely matters to you (not just what looks good on paper), and how tools like time blocking and structured to-do lists can reduce overwhelm instead of adding to it. We also get into the less talked about but essential parts of balance—sleep, adaptability, learning to say no, and building sustainable habits that don’t collapse the second life gets hectic. This episode isn’t about doing more. It’s about doing things with intention, protecting your energy, and creating a life where you’re not just keeping up—but actually living it. If you’ve ever felt like you’re constantly busy but still not in control of your time, this one is for you. socials instagram: https://www.instagram.com/the glowupguidepodcast/ pinterest: https://pin.it/2Eg2UAjWO youtube: https://youtube.com/@theglowupguide-p6m?si=X3kiRHFlphtbL6KW
