Lisa Goldenthal: Is Your Calendar Stealing Your Life? Here's How You Take It Back
Episode 459
Wednesday, 11 February, 2026

Is your calendar running your company—or running you? In this episode of the WholeCEO Podcast, Lisa Goldenthal breaks down one of the most underestimated performance drains for CEOs and senior leaders: calendar overload. If your days are filled with back-to-back meetings, constant context switching, and little time for strategic thinking, this conversation is your wake-up call. Lisa challenges leaders to examine how many hours per week are lost to low-value meetings—and which recurring conversations drain energy without producing real decisions. She unpacks practical executive time management strategies, including eliminating status meetings, implementing DRIs (Directly Responsible Individuals), and replacing unnecessary meetings with clear written narratives. This isn't about productivity hacks. It's about reclaiming leadership clarity, decision quality, and executive focus. You'll explore: 1-How meeting overload impacts CEO performance and decision-making 2-The hidden cost of status meetings vs. decision-driven meetings 3-How written updates can replace hours of unnecessary calls 4-Why clear ownership (DRIs) reduces bottlenecks and frees leadership capacity 5-Where reclaimed time should actually go: strategy, growth, revenue, or personal recovery If five extra hours appeared on your calendar next week, would you use them to think, build, sell—or finally step away? This episode is for founders, CEOs, and senior executives ready to redesign their operating rhythm and take back control of their time. 🎧 Listen now to reclaim your calendar—and your leadership edge.
