  • How I Became a Time & Energy Management Expert (Without Ever Planning To)
    Jan 15 2026

    In this solo episode of Energy + Hours, Jill pulls back the curtain and shares the real story behind how she accidentally became a time and energy management expert.

    From jotting down tools into a Word doc during university, to navigating postpartum depression, business collapse, a child’s diagnosis, and the chaos of early motherhood during a pandemic , Jill reveals how each chapter of her life quietly prepared her for this work.

    This is a deeply personal, behind-the-scenes look at the lived experience, curiosity, resilience, and neuro-affirming perspective that built the Time Magic Planner, the Momentum Membership, the Time Tune-Ups, and the entire Energy + Hours brand.

    If you're new to Jill’s world, this episode is the perfect place to start.


    In this episode Jill shares:

    • How she unintentionally wrote her first book (and how anxiety shaped it)

    • What it was really like opening a retail business in 2020 with two small kids

    • How postpartum depression and burnout forced her to reinvent how she managed her time

    • Why the Time Magic Planner exists and why it works

    • How learning about neurodiversity radically shifted her approach to productivity

    • Her belief that high-achieving women are going to change the world

      • The daily affirmation that still guides her business and life

  • Getting It All Done With Less Effort, Energy and Time
    Jan 8 2026

    In this solo episode of Energy + Hours, Jill Wright explores a different way of thinking about productivity; one that has nothing to do with doing more, pushing harder, or expecting yourself to operate like a machine.

    Instead, this episode is about timing.

    Jill walks you through how to identify your most productive time of day, how to notice when your energy naturally rises and falls, and how to plan your calendar in a way that actually works with your energy instead of against it. When you align the right tasks with the right moments, you can get the same amount of work done with less effort, less energy, and less time.

    This episode is especially helpful for high-performing women, moms, entrepreneurs, and people with ADHD who feel productive some days and completely stuck on others — and wonder why their “best day” never seems repeatable.

    Jill also shares a powerful reminder she heard from Julie Cole and Libby Ward that completely reframed how she thinks about expectations, burnout, and self-compassion.

    In This Episode,:

    • How to identify your most productive time of day

    • Why productivity drops even when you’re still “working”

    • The difference between effort and results

    • How to plan your calendar around energy instead of willpower

    • Why your most productive day should not be your baseline

    • How to get the same amount done with less strain

    • Creating space for rest, creativity, and real life

    A Key Reframe from This Episode

    You don’t need to be productive all day to be productive.

    When you plan your work around your high-energy windows and give yourself permission to ease off during lower-energy moments, productivity becomes more sustainable, and life gets lighter.
