20: How to Plan & Stay Productive During Challenging Times With Erin Condren

On this episode of The Amplify Show, I talk all things productivity with Erin Condren, Founder and Chief Creative Officer of Erin Condren Design

In an age where technology and social media have infiltrated every aspect of life, Erin took a chance on paper products to make every day a bit more organized, stylish, and colorful. Since founding her company from her children's playroom in 2005, Erin Condren designs on-trend and customized organization products, from planners and notebooks to home and office organizers. Each product is intentionally crafted to serve a purpose: to help customers achieve their goals and reduce stress so they can lead more joyful, meaningful lives through organization. 

As an entrepreneur and a mom, Erin is juggling school at home, weathering the COVID-19 pandemic, and running a business with more than 200 employees. She shares her top tips for planning out your day during a time that feels impossible to plan, how to handle growing pains, finding silver linings, and more. 

Whether you're a planner geek like me, or just trying to figure out how to stay productive during this time, this is the episode for you. 

 

“Where do you want to see your self in six months, in a year, in five years? We can come out of this... and realize what we really want to be doing, and there’s no better time than right now.” -Erin Condren
