RaderCo - Weekender Snapshot
Feeling the lazy embrace of summer? That's been me these past two weeks. Some light coaching sessions with clients on holiday and a beach getaway led to my last rendezvous with seafood. A scrumptious meal of ceviche and crab turned into an unexpected adventure in "internal decluttering" on the side of the road and someone's yard (sorry, unknown family!). By morning, I was back to my energetic self, all thanks to my friend Sara's pro tip - create a makeshift bed with couch cushions on the bathroom floor. Trust me, it was a game-changer! Since this was the third time in a few years that this has happened after eating shelled sea creatures, I'll consider it done and stick to fish of the non-exoskeleton persuasion! In other news, we made a snappy 2.5-minute Focus Power-Ups video with snippets from that program. Do you use our Powered Path Playbook™? If so, please be a helper and complete our survey to help us test the digital version! We're excited to offer this additional Playbook format option to our cadre of digital notetaker enthusiasts. #wegotyou Here's what the Goldfish Series author Stan Phelps said about his experience with the Powered Path Playbook™. (and if you don't know about Stan, I've read all eleven of his books cover to cover!) When you get this, I'll be savoring coffee and crepes with my friend Wendy and gearing up to sing & dance when my husband performs with the awesome Charles Latham and the Borrowed Band tonight. And tomorrow? Off to Smith Mountain Lake to hang with our dear friend Paul, whipping up paneer for dinner, quiche for breakfast, and maybe even fit in some happy hula-hooping on a paddleboard. On with the Weekender! p.s. New to RaderCo and want to get to know me better? Check out the various podcast interviews I have given in recent years.

Q4 budget windows close fast. If you're looking for something to give your team before the year ends, I want to make sure you know this exists. The Right Things First is a pocket guide to relentless prioritization across health, work, relationships, home, and digital life. Small enough for a back pocket. Practical enough to use the same week it arrives. Every copy includes a free audio version I recorded (65 minutes). It works as a standalone team resource or paired with a keynote or...
Planning is a productive-looking way to procrastinate. An afternoon, a document, and the feeling you worked on the quarter. Then you can execute a list you never examined. Why it matters: If you can't plan, you can't prioritize. If you're not prioritizing, you're planning the wrong things. There's a step before both. Reflect. Prioritize. Plan. In that order. One thing you can do now: Before you plan next quarter, answer one question about the last one. What did you keep saying yes to that...
Optimize or prioritize? | When everything feels urgent | Peyton Manning Last weekend was super fun and active. My brother came to visit, and we hiked about 10 miles, visited the trolls at Dorothea Dix Park, and saw Salt-N-Pepa, En Vogue, and TLC. I also showed him how to use Claude to improve his SEO, GEO, and AEO for his steel business. With Emily Crookston and Todd Rader at the Iconic concert. The setup matters more than the ask: Claude needs to understand your business before you ask it to...
