It’s that time of year again… school’s winding down, your calendar is bursting, and you’re wondering how on earth you’ll run your business and enjoy summer. Let me help you lay out a clear plan to prep your biz for summer, reclaim your time, and avoid burnout.

We live in a culture that equates busyness with success. We wear our overfilled calendars like a badge of honor. But being busy doesn’t mean you’re being productive. And it definitely doesn’t mean you’re making progress toward the goals that matter most.

The Pomodoro Method (developed by Francesco Cirillo in the late 1980s) is a simple time management technique that follows this structure:

• Work for 25 minutes (one “Pomodoro”)

• Take a 5-minute break

• Repeat this cycle four times, then take a (optional) longer break (15–30 minutes)

This method isn’t just about taking breaks -- it’s about training your brain to focus deeply during work periods and fully recharge during rest periods.

If you’ve ever found yourself drowning in commitments, business tasks, or a never-ending to-do list, you’re not alone. Most entrepreneurs and busy professionals struggle with time management, decision fatigue, and prioritization.
