Back-to-School Reset: Science-Backed Rituals for a Focused, High-Performance Workday | Ep. 237

In this episode, I share how the back-to-school season isn’t just for kids, it’s a powerful reset button for all of us. I open up about my own experience of slipping into autopilot and how I realized my daily rituals had become empty routines. I dive into the science behind rituals, explaining how infusing meaning and presence into our actions can transform not just our productivity, but our sense of fulfillment at work.

I walk you through essential rituals that help me stay focused and avoid burnout I talk about how I use these rituals to transition between roles—mom, professor, and planner—and how even small moments of intention, like a deep breath before a tough meeting or a quick check-in with myself before recording, can make a huge difference.

If you’re feeling scattered, overwhelmed, or just ready for a fresh start, this episode will help you reimagine your workday and reclaim your focus—without burning out. I hope you’ll join me in making this back-to-school season a “back to you” moment, full of meaningful transitions and new possibilities.
