About this episode
The first quarter of 2025 is officially in the books! If that realization makes you feel a little panicked, don’t - we’ve got you. April is the perfect time to jump in, dial in, and plan with purpose so you can move through the month feeling prepared and in control.
In this episode of Cowgirls Over Coffee, Thea is joined by Lana for a deep-dive conversation on monthly planning strategies that actually work, sans the unnecessary stress or perfectionism. They’re breaking down the mindset shifts and tactical steps that will help you map out a month that supports your goals instead of leaving you overwhelmed.
What You’ll Learn in This Episode:
- Why most women overcomplicate planning, and how to make it simple
- How to plan your month in 20 minutes or less (even if you feel behind)
- The importance of pre-gaming roadblocks so you stay on track
- The mindset shift that makes pivoting easier & decision fatigue lower
- Why planning with your husband, team, or family can reduce stress and miscommunication
- The “Messy First Draft” Approach to planning, because perfection is distraction.
