Welcome to the From To-Do To Done Community!
Are you new to the community? Welcome, I'm really glad you're here! Introduce yourself in the comments so we can get to know you. The focus of this community is to help you get in touch with who you really are so that you can get past the confusion and frustration of not making progress on a big work project or on the priorities on your to-do list. If you’re like me, the pressure to conform and fit in you’ve felt throughout your career (and earlier) has you in a loop of fear – fear to embrace your true process, and fear of speaking up to ask for the resources you need (even if that’s just asking for a minute to formulate a plan). To make this shift more efficient, I like to use your astrological natal chart as a sort of cheat sheet to apply some amazing nervous system tools to show you how you, specifically, get back to the present moment (vs beating yourself up about the past or worrying about the future), and to recharge and rebalance your nervous system. This way you can use who you really are to fully get your move on with your priority projects. If you’re comfortable with sharing your Sun, Moon, and Rising signs in the group when you post about a current project, please do, but please don’t share more than that here. Everything in the community will center around getting unstuck and owning who you really are so that you can move from to-do to done by: 1. Identifying current blocks that are mucking up your productivity 2. Getting your nervous system recharged and back on-line so you can healthfully navigate struggles 3. Understanding how the current astrological energy may be working for or against you and how you can apply it so that you can get moving (which may mean slowing down for a time) 4. Building and maintaining healthy boundaries so that you can focus on doing things your way for your greatest success Welcome again, and please introduce yourself below! GUIDELINES FOR COMMENTS AND POSTS: • Be kind – this is a no-judgment zone • Share your experiences (if you’re compelled to do so) but don’t advise others, remember, everyone’s experience and path is unique

What do you wake up to? And how that might be impacting your productivity
Do you struggle to get out of bed in the morning regularly? Do you KNOW, without doubt, that you can have more efficient mornings? I had an epiphany this morning when my alarm went off.....I've been my own worst enemy when it comes to starting my day with a regulated nervous system. As much as I've been trying to be aware of my routines and habits that are blocking me, I missed THE FIRST THING THAT HAPPENS IN MY DAY! 🤦♀️ I realize that I pick up my phone and doom scroll before I get out of bed because my preconscious mind is already starting the cortisol fountain. My alarm is set to play my radio station, which happens to be news (delivered in a calm way but news, nonetheless). What did I do today when I realized that? I immediately researched alarms that are better for your nervous system. 🤔 I also reset all of my alarms, so the radio will come on two hours after I want to get up, and my phone will wake me with one of the five most recommended tones (for iPhone: Sench, By the Seaside, Uplift, Constellation, Slow Rise—I chose Slow Rise; my system said "YES!" to that one; the others were either jarring or "Meh"). I also realized I kept the news on from 6 to noon—that's too much, even if it's interesting. News will be on from 8 to 10, and then whatever variety of spa, classical, reiki, etc. I've got it set for that day will come on. Today, I turned opera on at 10, and I already feel better able to tackle my to-do list. Having that hope and energy first thing in the morning will be, I suspect, life-changing, and I couldn't be more excited (that may be partly because my cacao is brewed, so theobromine is on the way). What are your goals for your to-do list? Is something in your routine preventing you from accomplishing what is important to you? Is there something you can do to experiment with your habits and see what the shake-up does? I'd love to hear what you're thinking.

Long-term planning with you on the main stage
Are you feeling stuck in a business or work project, or perhaps in an area of your life where you deserve to shine? Let's explore that, especially in relation to the influence of Leo in your natal chart! Your potential is waiting to be unleashed! Today is the day to follow your momentum and start writing your long-term plan. Mars moved into Leo today and will be moving forward for the next month (indicating that your energetic motivator is fueling your ego (and, as with all things, that can be used to your benefit or detriment)), and the Sun is in a direct trine (good relationship) with Saturn today (which indicates an excellent time for long-term planning with you at the center). What does this mean for you? Without knowing what house Leo is in for you, this means celebrating your wins from the last year and noticing and celebrating your wins going forward. Celebrate YOU! Once you've engaged in this daily (or hourly?) celebration practice, take a minute to connect with the energy in your solar plexus. Watch it move, and grow, and light up, and ask what it wants to focus on for whatever timeframe represents long-term planning for you. Write down everything that comes to mind. Look at what you've written and circle the items with the most energizing power. Write those items down on a fresh piece of paper with some space around them (or in columns or as a mind map, or each on their own piece of paper, whatever works best for you). Take a break. Rest, play, shake it off, whatever you need to do to get back to center. When you're ready, go back to the list and brainstorm what activities or tasks will help you put and keep the focus on those items. Once you feel like you've got a thorough set of tasks (like, 82% complete), prioritize those tasks by importance and urgency or, if they need to be completed in a particular order, by the order in which they need to flow. Take a break. Rest, play, shake it off, whatever you need to do to get back to center.

Great day for focus - great week for re-engineering routines
Have you got a project that you've been avoiding for weeks (months, years, even)? Today is a great day to look at that project, write down step-by-step instructions to complete it, and take that first step (or take the first few steps, if they feel right (meaning not pressure-filled)). This week is the perfect time, also, to pay attention to what's not working in your life (notice where you hit the same obstacles or challenges) and to review your routines and change them up. If you hear yourself saying, "I have to....", stop, notice something you see, hear, smell, taste, and feel, then ask yourself if that's really true. If you have the space to do so, do something spontaneous and see what happens, see how you feel, and keep following that track. You may find there's a new routine coming that serves you better. If you're facing an obstacle that seems familiar, ask yourself what behavior(s) you can adjust and try something new. Last, welcome to Scorpio season! The Sun is shining on a new part of your life for the next month, time to go deep into self-acceptance and love the shadow parts of yourself.

Time for balance w/o people pleasing
Hello - how has your week been? We entered Libra season last week (which brings with it an energy shift and shines the Sun's light on a different area of your life (for me it's moved from my body and identity to my resources and money, woo hoo!)), Mercury moved into Libra on Tuesday, and both are approaching the South Node (hello eclipse!) - so, typically this energy might feel more soothing, easeful, and harmonious, but, that's not how the lessons are working this month. One thing I'm pondering right now is the (sometimes) circular reference that is harmony. Looking back at my relationships (work, intimate, friendships, family, all of them), I can see where I was trying to keep the peace/create harmony through people pleasing (but, really, who am I to think I know what will make someone else happy?). When I think of the most intense of those situations, I can see how my actions to keep the peace with others (or to do what (I thought) others wanted, or to try to accomplish other people's goals on their behalf) led to great disharmony and pain in my life (and in my body). Luckily now, through a better understanding of how I'm built astrologically/energetically/archetypally (yep, made that one up) and through the use of some awesome (and easy) mind-body tools, I can catch myself before I people please, get grounded, and make a decision that addresses my needs and wants. It's not easy - just last week I had multiple opportunities with the same person to do what was right for me. I slowed down, got sort of clear on what was going on in my system, communicated clearly (even when it was an ambiguous answer), and let the chips fall where they may knowing I was solidly in my lane. It was freeing, and, of course, a little spinny, it's new for me. It also meant that I needed a day or two to really stop the pushing and let my system recalibrate. So, here I am after some external and internal reharmonizing and it feels so much better than the quagmire that was people pleasing for false harmony.

No more looking at your business to-do list or massive project with confusion and frustration; it's time to get your move on.
