Hey Phoenix fam, Task-switching steals 40% of your focus as an ND multi-business owner. I’ve felt it juggling planners, design gigs, and animal sits.

Ditch the random hop with a 10-minute morning batch. No rigid schedules, just dopamine-friendly grouping. Here’s mine:

I started this last week and it cut my startup paralysis by half, even with late-night rehab intakes. Messy days? Skip to Batch 1, call it done.

Try it: Grab a scrap paper or planner page right now. Time yourself once. Brain feels lighter already? Hit reply: “BATCHED” + your 3 batches. I’ll feature faves next week.

Done > perfect,
Katie
Phoenix on Fire

P.S. Forward to one ND friend drowning in tabs. They’ll thank you.

What’s Happening Next?

We have several exciting products in the pipeline that I’m thrilled to share with you. First, I’m currently in the final testing phase of the new Anxiety Relief Planner. This Anxiety Relief Daily Planner provides targeted anxiety management through clinically-proven tools: mood tracking, 5-4-3-2-1 grounding exercises, and dopamine micro-rewards. It’s presented in a simple, hyperlinked PDF format, unlike comprehensive ADHD planners that can be overwhelming. This planner offers three evidence-based anxiety tools in just five minutes daily: track patterns, ground during panic, and celebrate survival. Therapists recognize CBT techniques, and our test users appreciate the no-shame dopamine rewards. The fully hyperlinked navigation makes this product easy to use digitally, but it’s also print-friendly if you prefer a hard copy to jot down notes!

We’re also launching a new, no-nonsense quarterly planner soon, and I know I’m a bit late with it, but I’d rather have a complete tool than rush out an unusable one!

Big things still ahead for Phoenix on Fire, and I am excited to see where 2026 takes us!

These functional digital planning stickers are retiring soon and are priced to be friendly on your budget at only $3! These minimalistic and simple stickers pack a powerful punch when it comes to function and they have helped my own productivity soar! Get them here.

That’s it from me today, firebirds! I know the Ember hasn’t been on schedule for the last two months but keep your eyes peeled each Monday for more productivity tips and tools made to make your life easier! I’m back on track!
