Top Time Expert: You Can Have A Career, Family AND Free Time—Here's How
Episode 428
Wednesday, 6 May, 2026
You've probably heard a million different time management strategies by now, but may still feel busy, exhausted, and like you don’t have time to do the things you truly love. Today, we are going to change that. I surveyed thousands of Liz Moody podcast listeners and found there are four specific time hurdles all of us run into. We're going to talk about exactly how to overcome those hurdles with pragmatic, actionable steps that work. And, here's the catch, we are not talking about time management to get more done. We are talking about time management to create a life that’s filled with joy and fun. My expert guest is Laura Vanderkam. She is a time management researcher who has studied thousands of people's real time logs, a bestselling author of multiple books, a business owner, mother of 5 kids, and she also sings in a choir every week. She has figured out how to use every hour intentionally, and she’s going to help you do the same. 🎧 What you’ll learn: • The reason time management strategies fail • The surprising truth about how long your chores, work, and obligations actually take • How to use your evenings and weekends like a mini vacation—without going anywhere • A simple weekly planning method that cuts decision fatigue and kills the Sunday scaries • Why "three times a week" is enough to build a real habit • Why "flexible" hobbies never happen—what to do instead • How to make tasks feel doable Check out our NEW YouTube Channel with tons of YouTube exclusive Shorts and, coming soon, YouTube exclusive podcast content: https://www.youtube.com/@LizMoodyTV Check out the previous episodes of The Liz Moody Podcast discussed today: • Unlocking the Happiness Formula: How the Most Joyful People Manage Their Time With Cassie Holmes, PhD • Invisible Labor Is Damaging Your Relationships–But This 6 Minute Exercise Can Change Everything with Eve Rodsky Review the study mentioned in this episode: Happiness From Treating The Weekend Like A Vacation For more from Laura Vanderkam: • Order Her New Book, Big Time: https://wwnorton.com/books/9781324110750 • Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/lvanderkam • Website: https://lauravanderkam.com/ Ready to uplevel every part of your life?
