Welcome to the Beyond Busyness Podcast
If you’re a driven female entrepreneur, chances are you’ve built your business on hard work, hustle, and late-night to-do list sessions. You’re doing all the “right” things — juggling clients, content, offers, emails, launches, maybe even ads — but it still feels like you’re always behind.
The truth?
You’re not unorganized. You’re just at capacity.
And no amount of batching, color-coding, or downloading another productivity app is going to fix it.
If you’re asking questions like…
“How do I grow without working more hours?”
“What should I actually focus on this week?”
“Why does my business feel so heavy even though I love what I do?”
…then you’re in the right place.
I’m Kristen Van Horn — time strategist and planner creator for female entrepreneurs scaling to their next level. After working with hundreds of women growing businesses while raising families and running full lives, I created this podcast to help you break free from the burnout cycle and build a business that’s both profitable and sustainable.
Inside, you’ll get simple strategies, honest conversations, and behind-the-scenes coaching to help you plan smarter, show up better, and create real momentum — without burning out or giving up your weekends.
Let’s move beyond busyness… and into your next level.
