Do you feel overwhelmed with your todo list? Is "creating fulfilling happiness" missing from that list? Everyday Happiness with Katie Jefcoat is here to help you. In 2-minutes a day, over time, you’ll discover how to reduce overwhelm and create lasting happiness through Katie’s signature method of Intentional Margins, happiness science, and musings about life. Start your day with a positive mindset. Many of us can get deep in the feeling of overwhelm. The anxiety of our own ambition can weigh heavily on our thoughts and emotions. We lay down and close our eyes at night and our chest begins to feel heavy. More items on the to-do list than the day before. How will we ever going to get off the hamster wheel of to-dos? When are we going to start living life for more than the hustle? As a recovering lawyer and passion driven entrepreneur, Katie knew something had to change. What she found is that you can have harmony, be intentionally productive and create massive impact, all at the same time - without feeling guilty. So she asked herself a simple question: "How can I get off the hamster wheel and how can I show others how to do the same? She knew she'd had a system for herself, but she’d never put it into defining words. On August 15, 2019, she sat down at her dining room table with her friend Jenna (her business bestie). Post-It notes covering the table. This is where she first defined the concept of Intentional Margins. What are Intentional Margins? INTENTIONAL MARGINS™ (n): A buffer of space and time to create harmony between your to-do’s and your priorities. Now you can get the support you need to manage your overwhelm, one little tip at a time. Regardless of the industry, Everyday Happiness blends inspiration with a pragmatic approach to finding Harmony. You'll be encouraged to throw “balance” out the window for a more achievable approach called harmony. Through Intentional Margins™, you'll be encouraged to develop what harmony means to you, by identifying your priorities at work and at home. Every day, we'll end the podcast help you feel equipped to jump off the hamster wheel of overwhelm and go out there and crush your day. --About the Host-- Katie Jefcoat is a community curator, speaker, author and motivator who supports ambitious women (and a few good men) move from feeling hectic to harmonious. As a recovering trial lawyer, she knows first hand what it feels like to have a demanding job. As an entrepreneur with a passion that lights her hair on fire and a busy family she’s in the thick of it with you. Many people strive for balance and think overwhelm is just a part of life. Sadly, the hustle culture and our never-ending to-do list is creating a life where our priorities are getting the leftover scraps of time. Katie introduces people to what she calls - Intentional Margins™ - a kind of life in which they reduce randomness, create harmony between their to-dos and their priorities and intentionally enjoy the meaningful parts of life - without feeling guilty. Without exposure to a different way, we remain stuck on the hamster wheel of to-dos and never find the “balance” we yearn for. Katie works diligently to expose her community to different ways of doing things, because she fundamentally believes we deserve to make time for our priorities. We deserve to live a life of harmony. And it’s within our control to create it. Katie curates a smorgasbord of content related to managing your calendar, handling overwhelm, setting boundaries, reducing randomness, saying no, self-care, the power of your choices, and more in her Intentional Margins™ Membership Community -- which she calls the coziest virtual coffee shop (on Facebook).

It’s time to pop the bubbly, grab your steaming cup of coffee because today is a B-I-G day! We’re celebrating 100 Everyday Happiness Episodes.
Transcript:
Welcome to Everyday Happiness where we create lasting happiness, in 2 minutes a day, through my signature method of Intentional Margins® (creating harmony between your to-dos and your priorities), happiness science, and musings about life.
I'm your host Katie Jefcoat and today we are breaking out the bubbly, throwing the confetti and celebrating 150 episodes of Everyday Happiness. And it’s all because of you. It’s truly nothing short of amazing and we’re humbled and grateful to be celebrating 150 episodes and can’t wait for 150 more.
We are 100% feeding off of your energy, whether that’s on a 5-star review (that you so much), on social media, in my email if you get Everyday Happiness delivered to your inbox, on Amazon Alexa flash briefings or, if I see you on the street. It is seriously one of the most fun and fulfilling projects I’ve done and we could not be more excited about where we’re headed - together.
One thing I know for sure, is that when you lock arms with the right people, magic happens and that’s how I feel about this community of listeners. This is to celebrate you! Thank you for sharing the episodes and the social media quote cards and telling your friends to subscribe.
This project takes a village and I would be remiss if I didn’t shout out Blessy, our chief of everything over here at Everyday Happiness, who drops into the DMs, makes those amazing graphics you see on social media - I mean, who doesn’t love a good quote - and so much more. And Jeimy who mixes sound and makes sure the audio gets published on all the platforms exactly when it’s supposed to. There is so much work behind the scenes and it takes a village and I feel like I have the best village.
So, to you, the listener, I want to say Thank you for your support, your loyalty and your online friendship. We feel it. We really do. We feel like we have a marketing team out there working with us to spread kindness and happiness through this micro-podcast and I know, together, we will do big things.
Cheers to you and the next 150 Episodes! With an abundantly overflowing grateful heart, I’m Katie and I’m so glad you are here.
