Why Self-Management is More Important than Time-Management

Time management is a misnomer.
Self-management is what really matters.

It’s time to shift your focus to what you can actually control.

Join Catie Kirke for a half-day, practical, real-world workshop designed to strengthen your self-management toolbox and help you navigate the relentless pressures, time constraints, and endless to-do lists that come with modern life.

You’ll be introduced to Catie’s magic pill for self-management:
Perspective. Priorities. Perspiration. Perseverance.

A proven October Business Month favourite, this session combines two of our most popular mini-workshops into one extended experience, responding directly to participant feedback. You asked for more time and deeper content, and we’ve delivered. This longer format allows for more hands-on strategies, personal reflection, and real-time application of the tools.

If you want to explore stress management, emotion regulation, and resilience in more depth, our full-day Emotional Intelligence & Resilience workshop is the next step.

But if you’re ready for a clear, doable starting point? This is it.

In this half-day workshop, you will:

• Worry less by focusing on what’s within your circle of influence
• ‘Put your own oxygen mask on first’ – set boundaries and build confidence to say no
• Advocate for your needs and reset your work-life balance
• Understand the root causes of stress and overwhelm
• Break the cycle of stress and burnout with practical mindset and behaviour shifts
• Explore the biggest mistakes people make with time management
• Use timeless tools to take back control of your time
• Identify your top time wasters and interrupt unhelpful habits

Whether you’re stuck in reactive mode, running on empty, or juggling too much for too long, this half-day reset is for you.
