The Time Witch's Starter Spellbook (A Real Day In My Life Slash How I Spend My Time)

or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love My Google Calendar

Ever wonder how your astrology app finds time to send you push notifications about approaching doom while you can't find 5 minutes to eat lunch? (Petition to remove Co—Star from the App Store)

In this episode of The Twelfth House, Michelle Pellizzon (me! hi!) confesses to being a recovering time scarcity girlboss and breaks down how she went from "scheduling bathroom breaks" to "running a business in 4 days a week without having a nervous breakdown."

If you're reading this while simultaneously attending a Zoom meeting, answering Slack messages, and planning your escape to a meditation retreat in Bali, this episode is specifically for you.

Episode Highlights

First, we dive into the exact moment I realized I was treating my schedule like a game of Tetris designed by Satan himself. Spoiler alert: it involved crying in a Whole Foods parking lot because I scheduled three meetings in three different places in one hour. Past Me was clearly going through something.

Then we get into the juicy stuff:

  • How I structure my week so I actually have time to shower, make money, and generally enjoy my life (revolutionary, I know)

  • The uncomfortable truth about why you keep booking meetings you hate

  • How to identify what's actually important versus what your anxiety says is important

  • The art of saying "no" without having to fake a family emergency

Plus, I share some spicy takes from the Time Witch's Starter Spellbook, which you can snag here →

If you've ever wished you could manipulate the space-time continuum just to get through your to-do list, consider this episode your permission slip to stop treating productivity like a blood sport. Time isn't the enemy — but that 2-hour standing weekly meeting that could have been an email definitely is.

Tune in for practical magic that’ll help you feel like you’ve actually got your life together without having an existential crisis every Sunday night." ✨

[Note: No calendars were harmed in the making of this episode, but several unnecessary meetings were permanently deleted.]
