    S2, Ep2: Katie Williams
    Nov 20 2024
    Highlights: Sarah interviews Katie Williams, a stress management expert, therapist, and coach, who helps high-achieving women balance ambition with well-being. Katie shares her journey of self-discovery, including transitioning from a high-stress corporate job in London to finding balance in Glasgow. Discussion on the challenges of managing stress, the societal pressure to be "busy," and the impact of stress on time perception. Katie explains her approach to teaching clients how to embrace relaxation without guilt and introduces her Stress to Still masterclass. They explore ways to make time for self-care, manage stress responses, and shift the mindset from "busy" to "intentional." Time Stamps: 00:00 – Introduction to Own Your Time and Sarah’s mission as a time management coach. 00:42 – Introduction of guest Katie Williams, her background, and her expertise in stress management. 01:06 – Katie shares her professional journey and the personal experiences that shaped her career path. 04:33 – Katie’s realization about using busyness to avoid self-reflection and the importance of balance. 06:17 – Sarah and Katie discuss how “busyness” is often a coping mechanism to avoid inner thoughts. 08:30 – Katie reads a passage by Brianna Weast on how busyness is a form of self-sabotage. 15:09 – Discussion on how stress impacts our perception of time. 19:16 – Strategies for achieving a more spacious perception of time. 22:10 – Katie’s methods for shifting time perception, including anchoring new habits. 27:22 – Importance of recognizing choice and responsibility in creating time for oneself. 28:21 – Katie introduces her Stress to Still masterclass and how it addresses the "always busy" cycle. 30:24 – Details on how listeners can access Katie’s training and other resources. Key Takeaways: Reevaluate "Busyness": Both Sarah and Katie highlight the pitfalls of constantly identifying as "busy." Katie shares that reframing "busy" to a "full day" can change our relationship with time and help us feel more in control. The Perception of Time Under Stress: Acute stress may slow our perception of time due to heightened awareness, while chronic stress can create a feeling of time speeding up, leading to constant overwhelm. Mindfulness in Routine Tasks: Sarah recommends grounding oneself in routine tasks like making tea, emphasising that even small moments of intentionality can create a sense of spaciousness Importance of Responsibility over Blame: Katie stresses that taking responsibility for one’s time management is different from self-blame. Recognising choice can empower us to manage time in alignment with our priorities. Implementing Small Pauses: Katie advises incorporating small, intentional pauses, such as 30-second breathwork exercises, to recalibrate and reduce stress throughout the day. Masterclass on Shifting from Stress to Stillness: Katie’s Stress to Still training encourages individuals to step out of the cycle of busyness, meet their needs, and foster a sense of calm in their lives.
