Most teams aren’t drowning in work. They’re drowning in distractions.   Sarah Lockwood is joined by Jenna Piché, the founder of First Light Time Management Coaching, for a timely conversation about team productivity, deep work, and sharpening your leadership focus. With the year halfway over, it’s a good moment to stop and ask: Are you making real progress on the goals you set in January or just staying busy?   Jenna shares why so many leaders unintentionally build cultures where busyness is rewarded, and why that’s such a dangerous trap. When everything feels urgent, it’s easy to lose sight of the work that actually moves the needle. What signals are you sending to your team about what matters? Are people clear on what to focus on or are they stuck reacting all day?   They also discuss the psychology of productivity and procrastination, including what’s actually going on in your brain when you put off the hard stuff. And they talk through what it looks like to shift into a culture that values deep work and gives people the space to do their best thinking.   If your team’s attention feels fractured (or maybe your own), Jenna offers a smart reset. The kind that helps you see where time is leaking out of your day, and how to fix it before the second half of the year slips by.   Episode Breakdown: 00:00 Reflecting on Goals and Productivity 02:53 Misaligned Priorities and the Myth of Busyness 06:14 Creating a Culture of Focus 09:00 Identifying Misalignment in Teams 14:55 Overcoming Procrastination and Fear 18:05 Shifting Mindsets for Deep Work 21:00 Building a Supportive Team Culture 23:56 Setting Seemingly Impossible Goals   Links Connect with The Conscious Entrepreneur: Website: http://www.consciousentrepreneur.us  LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/conscious-entrepreneur/  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/conscious_entrepreneur_summit/    Connect with Jenna Piche: Fractured or Focused Attention Assessment: https://eencclvnukx.typeform.com/to/dMYQ67rp LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jennapiche/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/firstlightcoach/ Website: https://firstlighthealth.co/womens-health-and-focus-coaching   Connect with Sarah Lockwood: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/lockwoodsarah/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/hivecast.fm/ Website: https://hivecast.fm   HiveCast.fm is a proud sponsor of The Conscious Entrepreneur Podcast.
