Description
Most people lose their weekends to two negotiations they never needed to have. This episode breaks down three systems (a Friday boundary, batch infrastructure, and a one-hour Sunday session) that eliminate the decisions before Monday forces them on you. Make the decisions once, then just execute.

This episode is part of By Design, a series on systems and frameworks for the life you're not leaving. How to redesign your time, money, and decisions without burning it down first.
I teach controlled contraction (staying in the complex life on purpose and redesigning it from the inside, through systems, curation, and reclaimed time). For high-achieving women who want their time back without giving up what they built.
