Welcome to another episode of The Ownership Advantage! In this week’s conversation, hosts Tanner and Kay dive deep into the often-overlooked topic of managing overwhelm as a business owner. As Mondays roll around and the calendar fills up with meetings, calls, and to-dos, it’s easy for stress to set in. Tanner and Kay get candid about how they structure their weeks, set boundaries around their time, and find creative ways to stay productive without burning out. Kay shares practical strategies, from automating her calendar and batch scheduling meetings, to blocking off time for fitness, rest, and personal connections—even finding ways to integrate meetings into walks or laid-back environments. Tanner offers his own insights on pre-planning, sticking to personal non-negotiables, and making sure self-care isn’t the first thing to get bumped when business gets busy. Whether you’re overwhelmed by your own growing task list or just looking for ideas to reclaim some balance, this episode is full of honest advice and real-life tactics to help you own your schedule, protect your energy, and avoid the trap of always being “on.” Tune in to hear their takes on how to set boundaries with yourself, make your calendar work for you, and find those all-important pockets of rest—so you can handle the hustle without losing your spark. 00:00 Blocking Time for Meetings 05:13 Sunday Evening Weekly Planning 09:06 Flexible Task Scheduling Insights 12:55 Balancing Stress with Routine 15:54 Entrepreneurial Overwork and Resentment 16:50 Prioritize Self-Care Like Business 23:09 Reimagining Phone Meetings Anew 24:52 Balancing Energy and Rest
