The Truth About Time Blocking: Why You’re Still Burnt Out

This week on UnSUCKcessful, we’re digging into time blocking, organization, and why none of it is helping if you're still feeling like a crispy little burnout biscuit.

Jen and Brandi talk productivity systems, calendar color-coding, mental load juggling, and why even the best time management can’t fix emotional overload. If you're trying to do it all and still feeling behind, this episode is for you.

And spoiler alert—Jen drops a mic-drop moment at the end that might just change how you look at burnout forever. 🙃

✅ We cover:

• Time-blocking vs. energy management

• Burnout myths and why moms and entrepreneurs are especially vulnerable

• Emotional labor and hidden expectations

• The mindset shifts that might matter more than your planner
