We all have felt at some point that we are on a hamster wheel, just can’t seem to focus or follow through, but for a lot of people, it’s a way of life. Carol Williams is the founder of Efficient Productivity Systems, a company that helps bring focus and clarity to entrepreneurs who are neurodiverse or just have difficulty creating organization and productivity in their lives.

In this episode, Melinda and Carol tackle the issues behind the unstructured behavior of the clients that Carol calls the “scattered people”. Carol breaks down the layers of her signature system, The Productivity Success CakeTM, and both she and Melinda share useful tools and tips to help clients turn chaos into peaceful productivity.

In this episode we discuss:

  • Why some clients get overwhelmed and unfocused and how to recognize that behavior.
  • The importance of accountability and live check-ins with unfocused clients.
  • How to work with procrastination using mini challenges and mini deadlines.
  • How to help clients using bridging and transition planning.
  • The Productivity Success CakeTM system and how to use it when working with unfocused clients.
  • The importance of celebrating small victories.
  • How coaches can help create a space for change through listening and compassion.
  • Why onboarding clients can help them be more successful in your program.
“It’s baby steps and bite-sized pieces and reminders.”
“At the end of the day, great coaching has to do with great listening and intuition.” – Carol Williams

Carol Williams is a Certified Executive Coach with 18 years experience in the design professions as a project manager. In 2009, Carol struck out on her own, combining her passion for psychology and her project management experience. What has resulted from this transition is a beautiful manifestation of her true self, empowering business owners to own their greatness. She helps those with AD/HD get out of their own way, to live the life of their dreams while having the business of their dreams. Her motto is, “If I can do it, you can too.”

When she’s not powerfully serving her coaching clients, Carol speaks professionally and plays in the outdoors near her home in Sutton, NH. She loves art, design, and dancing.
