In this episode, Kathy and Helen Taylor dig into The 5 Types of Wealth by Sahil Bloom.

Bloom walked away from a high-flying finance career with all the markers of success and a hollow feeling he couldn't explain. This book is what he figured out.

Time, social, mental, physical, and financial wealth: most of us spend our working lives chasing the fifth while quietly going bankrupt in the other four. Kathy and Helen get personal about the parents calculation that reframes everything, the pyrrhic victory trap, and whether productivity culture might actually be making the whole problem worse.

A thought-provoking, honest conversation about what you're really optimising for.Five types of wealth. Make sure you're not ignoring four of them.

In this mini episode, Kathy Soulsby gets straight to the point on one of the biggest productivity drains in any working week: meetings that should have been an email.

Kathy walks through six practical steps to make meetings genuinely useful, not just shorter. From asking the right question before you even hit "invite," to building a proper agenda, managing the clock ruthlessly, keeping the guest list tight, and making sure actions actually get done. There's also a brilliant bonus tip on open office hours, Cal Newport-style.

If your calendar is eating your day alive, take a listen and send an email instead.

In this minipod Kathy sits down with breathwork coach Phoebe Newman of Flown to explore one of the most overlooked productivity tools hiding in plain sight: your breath.

They dig into what most of us are getting wrong about breathing, how chronic low-level stress is quietly wrecking focus and decision-making, and why the foundation of high performance might be less about your calendar system and more about your nervous system.

Phoebe shares practical techniques for focus, calm, energy, and better sleep, plus the one small breathing change that could have the biggest impact on your day.

It turns out the best productivity hack costs nothing and you're already doing it. Just, you know, wrong.
