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.

HOW TO PLAN YOUR QUARTERLY MARKETING STRATEGY
Last year, I made the executive decision that I was going to sit down every single quarter and plan out exactly when I would be launching when I would be running promotions, and how I was going to bring in new traffic and sales to my business every single month (at least for the next 3 months). And let me tell you, it was like a weight was lifted off my shoulders. Ready to do it for yourself and have the rest of the year (or an entire year) planned out for your business? Here are the 4 steps I take and what I teach my Beyond Busyness members (and it doesn’t take more than 30 minutes):
HOW TO SHIFT TO A 4-DAY WORK WEEK WITHOUT HUSTLING
And if you’re thinking that a 4 by 4 work week simply isn’t possible for you, then you’re going to continue hustling and feeling burnt out with your business until you want to burn it all to the ground. It’s like thinking that in order for a plant to grow, you need to water it 8 hours a day. But, you and I both know that if we did that, we’re actually going to end up killing the plant. Instead, we water it what it needs in order to grow, and THAT’S when we start seeing in thrive.

Well, say goodbye to generic resolutions and embrace a strategic blueprint for personal and professional growth. It's time to turn your aspirations into reality!
