RaderCo - Weekender Snapshot


Milestones Reached!

I’ve hit a BIG one—I've finished self-editing my fourth productivity book—Think Work Well. Play More! but for teams & companies.

I didn’t just sit at a desk to do it. I read 40,000+ words out loud over two days while walking, biking, and, yes, hula-hooping! (Check out the LinkedIn post here.) Now, it’s with the amazing Emily Crookston for some polishing.

Meanwhile, I’ve been training 712 accounting pros on how to Work Well Remotely

"This should be mandatory for all remote workers." - Jody Williams

Power tip: Most people think a treadmill desk needs to be at a fast speed, like a workout. Walking at 0.5-1.5 mph is perfect—think strolling, not sweating!

I also showed 338 people how to Break Free From Busy

Remember, don’t let your inbox run your day—tackle one of your top tasks first!

Rhonda Murray was so thrilled with the training that she'll share it with her “distractable friends and family."

I later partnered with Chappaqua School District Leadership to bring movement into their day with walking meetings. Walking side by side can promote openness and honesty and inspire creativity. As a student, I would have loved a walkie-talkie with a teacher, principal, or professor.

In Email Extinguisher, I debunked the myth of "Zero Inbox." Filter or create rules so you don't waste time deleting emails.

I've also been overwhelmed with the people who donated to the village school in Ghana.

We are so close; a few dollars goes a long way there. Every bit helps!

If you feel compelled to skip a latte or dinner out this week to support these amazing kids, please show your support here.

It's also my 50th birthday request: Please don't buy me a gift. Buy an education!

When you get this, I'll be on a plane to an undisclosed destination for my 50th birthday.

Kevin's got it all planned as a surprise.

All I know is that it's somewhere I've never been. It's north, and I need hiking boots. :)

Stay tuned for podcast #100 on my 50 by 50 challenge.

On with the Weekender!

Lately, my life looks like presentations, practical ahas, meaningful client moments, and weekend plans centered around books, coffee, and a very happy inner child. I’ve presented three times in the last two weeks—twice for CPA Academy on Work Well Remotely and Break Free From Busy, and yesterday for a local Vistage Peer Advisory Group on Reclaim Your Workday. One of the exercises included making a list of tasks you’ll do Now, Not Now (1–3 months), or Not Ever. I’m set to write a book, but Not...

Our Reclaim Your Workday Action Club started off with a bang! Twenty people have committed to changing habits—for themselves, their team, or their whole company. This week covered Chapter One: Focus and Attention…plus a hot seat question that felt painfully relatable: how do you break the habit of switchtasking when you work in a culture that expects you to respond immediately? Club commitments included: Create a virtual office hour on Mon/Wed/Fri Put chat in DND w/ a status message during...

What an incredible time at Annie Franceschi’s Make More Magic retreat at Disney World. Not only did I get to speak on Decide, Design, and Deliver Better With Your Not-Now List, but I also conjured two “pixie-dust pluses” that I'll be gifting to members of the Reclaim Your Workday Action Club (one valued at $99!). If we can’t bring a little magic back in our carry-on, what are we even doing? See Amber's wonderful work and services! Visiting the Magic Kingdom with the Queen of Disney (Annie)...
