Productivity Nerd
Podcast Description
A podcast about getting shit done, hopefully in an elegant way that doesn't leave you too broken!
We’re all balancing the need to work enough (enough to make ends meet, not annoy our bosses but also enough that we feel like we’ve done enough, which is a whole different psychological and emotional ball game) with the human need to rest and stay well. And, maybe even enjoy ourselves just a little bit along the way and spend quality time with those we love. And I for one love hearing about how people get more done, more efficiently so that they get more time to do the things they love.

In this episode of Productivity Nerd, Kathy explores the role of morning rituals in setting up a productive day — without demanding a 4:40am start.
From cold plunges to cup-of-tea routines, she looks at why what you do first thing matters, and how even small actions (like making your bed or drinking a glass of water) can give you a sense of control, clarity, and calm before the day runs away with you.
There’s also a look at:
– The Miracle Morning method (and why it might not be for everyone)
– The military-inspired logic behind making your bed properly
– Practical ideas for low-effort, high-impact morning habits
– And how repeating a ritual turns it into a routine that saves decision-making brainpower later on
Whether your mornings start with mindfulness, a gym session, or a sweary espresso in the cold, this episode will help you think about how to make them work for you.
