AI is reshaping online learning, but it can’t replace the power of human connection. The real opportunity is in blending AI efficiency with personal support and community, creating programs that deliver transformation—not just information.

302: How I run my week for top productivity (without burnout!)

In this episode, Tina Tower dives deep into her personal strategies for achieving maximum productivity while avoiding burnout. She discusses the weekly work structure that allows her to build a thriving business, maintain flexibility and freedom, and keep her creativity and energy levels high. Tina shares her tried-and-tested scheduling methods, the importance of batching tasks, planning for white space and recovery, and how she protects her time, energy, and creative flow. Whether you’re a seasoned entrepreneur or just starting out, Tina’s insights will help you design a balanced, productive week that works for you and your lifestyle. Resources: Join Her Empire Builder: https://www.herempirebuilder.com/join [https://www.herempirebuilder.com/join] Tina Tower Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/tina_tower [https://www.instagram.com/tina_tower] Monday.com: https://try.monday.com/tinatower88 [https://try.monday.com/tinatower88] Key Topics Covered * Setting your week up for success: Structure your week around your energy and creativity levels—Tina uses Mondays for content creation, Tuesdays for calls and people-focused tasks, Wednesdays for deep work, Thursdays for catch-up and miscellaneous tasks, and Fridays for rest and recovery. * Batching similar tasks: Grouping similar activities together minimizes mental switching, increases focus, and helps you get into a productive flow state. * Boundaries and expectations: Set clear expectations with your team and clients about when you’re available, and protect your time fiercely to avoid burnout. * Planning downtime: Intentionally schedule rest and recovery, including extended breaks—Tina takes off the third week of every month unscheduled, as well as four weeks off at Christmas and other holidays throughout the year. * Working with your energy: Pay attention to your own energy cycles, and don’t push yourself past your limit. Build a schedule that is structured but still flexible enough for “life to happen.” * Using the right tools: Tina uses tools like Monday.com for task management and relies on simple pen-and-paper for quick idea capture during flow states. * Personalization is key: Your ideal productivity schedule will look different based on your stage of life and personal values—don’t compare your calendar to anyone else’s. * Recovery after big pushes: Build in time for recovery after major launches, conferences, or work peaks, rather than jumping right back into intense work. As we close, Tina reminds us that true productivity comes from working with your energy and priorities, not just doing more. By batching tasks, setting boundaries, and planning real downtime, you can build a business that grows without burning out. Take what fits, make it your own, and design a rhythm that supports both success and balance.   Where to find Tina: Her Empire Builder: https://www.herempirebuilder.com/ [https://www.herempirebuilder.com/] Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/tina_tower/ [https://www.instagram.com/tina_tower/] YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@herempirebuilder [https://www.youtube.com/@herempirebuilder]

301: 20 years married to an entrepreneur. My husband & I answer your questions.

In this heartfelt and candid episode, Tina celebrates her and Mat’s 20th wedding anniversary by inviting him on the podcast for the very first time! Together, they answer listener questions about life, marriage, parenting, business, and everything in between, offering a unique behind-the-scenes look at their unconventional journey as partners, parents, and business collaborators. From juggling young kids with demanding businesses, to overcoming stereotypes and supporting each other's dreams, Tina and Mat open up about the real challenges and joys of building both a family and an empire together. Resources: Join Her Empire Builder: https://www.herempirebuilder.com/join [https://www.herempirebuilder.com/join] Tina Tower Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/tina_tower [https://www.instagram.com/tina_tower/]   Key Topics Covered * Parenting & Business Juggle: Tina and Mat reflect on the toughest seasons when the kids were young, acknowledging how much easier life gets as children grow up. They share advice about hiring help and leveraging time during demanding phases. * Working & Living Together: The couple discuss the reality of being in close proximity day after day and how they’ve learned to give each other space (different offices are key!), respect each other's routines, and focus on shared goals. * Communication in Uncertain Times: With some real talk on the early, uncertain years of Tina’s business, they recount the importance of over-communicating, trusting each other, and knowing when to discuss—and when to let go. * Breaking Stereotypes: Mat opens up about the societal perceptions and family opinions about working for his wife, and how he’s dealt with the traditional “breadwinner” expectations. * Happiness & Marriage Longevity: Both admit marriage isn’t always easy and share how actively working on their relationship, communicating openly, and allowing each other to grow have been crucial for their happiness. * Their Kids’ Perspective: Tina and Mat chat about how their roles have influenced their sons, focusing on valuing individuality over stereotypes and showing that success and happiness look different for everyone. * Adventure Stories: Get a laugh (and a cringe!) as they recount the weirdest things they’ve ever eaten while traveling through Mongolia and China. As Tina and Mat’s stories show, building a business and a life together comes with its own challenges, laughter, and lessons—but it’s the ongoing commitment to communication, respect, and shared adventure that keeps it all working. From parenting to partnership, they remind us that success isn’t about fitting into stereotypes, but about creating a life that feels true to you.   Where to find Tina: Her Empire Builder: https://www.herempirebuilder.com/ [https://www.herempirebuilder.com/] Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/tina_tower/ [https://www.instagram.com/tina_tower/] YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@herempirebuilder [https://www.youtube.com/@herempirebuilder]
