Announcing the Joyful Productivity Coaching Program
This is hands-down my favorite program to facilitate. I’m inspired by the vision of helping solopreneurs be joyfully productive, organized, better at boundaries and self-care, and excellent at daily prioritizing their time and energy. All of our businesses could thrive and our personal lives be far more balanced and joyful.
In this post, I’ll give an outline of what will be covered in the 2022 program.
The abbreviation for this program is "TLC" -- which stands for “Thoughtful Life Calendar” or, as some participants have called it, implementing tender loving care for your boundaries and energy, as related to your purpose and plans.
Based on 12 years of coaching entrepreneurs and self-employed people, I've noticed that goals and plans are often ineffective due to lack of consistency.
Without a wise mastery of time, energy, and boundaries, all of the actions needed to grow a business will feel overwhelming.
You might be overscheduling, or have too big of a to-do list that's not effectively prioritized.
The TLC22 program aims to help you become crystal clear and fully energized about your priorities each month, week, and day -- by showing you how to lovingly befriend and use your calendar and to-do list in a supportive and gently disciplined environment.
Your calendar and to-do list become your supportive assistants, rather than your boss.
Through this 12-month program, you'll get to join half-hour group calls every week -- where I teach one small part of the Joyful Productivity methodology, engage with your questions, and facilitate breakout groups where you can discuss, with another member, how you'll implement that week's step.
Our year of guidance and practice together will include these skills…
…plus additional topics as raised in the weekly Q&A call.
Even if you implemented just one third of the program – or even one-tenth! – your own TLC will be much better by year's end.

The program begins in January. Any questions? Comment below or message me: Contact George Kao.
