How do I get more stuff done? (Live Life Coaching Session)

About this episode

In this live coaching session, Ellen Broen explores the deeper issues behind feeling stuck and how to change your relationship with discomfort to prioritize yourself.

What if the real issue isn’t productivity but your relationship with your own brain? In this live coaching conversation, we explore what it actually means to feel “stuck,” especially when life is full but still feels mentally cluttered, emotionally heavy, or directionless. On the surface, it looks like a time management or routine problem. But underneath, it’s something deeper: how you relate to your thoughts, your responsibilities, and your sense of self. We unpack the desire to “move faster through life” to get past guilt, resentment, and mental friction so there’s more space for clarity, presence, and creativity. But what emerges is a different truth: this isn’t about eliminating discomfort, it’s about changing your relationship to it. From ADHD, mental load, and executive function challenges to self-prioritization and emotional resistance, this conversation reveals how much energy we lose when we constantly position ourselves as “behind” our own life. Because the real shift isn’t about doing more. It’s about finally placing yourself as your first priority and learning how to stay there. RESOURCES: Free Guide: Growth Without Burnout…
