Halfway Through the Year: Here’s How I’m Auditing My Time (and Why You Should Too)

I don’t know who needs to hear this, but June is almost over.

We are halfway through the year. Which sounds fake. But it’s true.

And before you spiral into “Where did the time go??” or “Why haven’t I done more??”—I want to stop you right there.

This isn’t about shame.
This isn’t about hustle.
This is about awareness.

Because when I say I’ve been auditing my time lately, I don’t mean I’ve been squeezing more into every day or finally becoming a time-blocking goddess (although I love a good time block moment). I mean I’ve been getting honest about where my time is actually going—without judgment—and what it’s costing me.

Why do a time audit right now?

Mid-year is the perfect moment to pause and ask:

Is how I’m spending my time aligned with what I say matters to me?

The first six months of the year weren’t a failure or a waste. They were full of information. And now? We get to look at that data and decide what gets to come with us into Q3—and what doesn’t.

Here’s what I’ve been doing behind the scenes.

Step 1: Zoom Out Before You Zoom In

Before I even touched my calendar, I took inventory of my current season. What’s working? What’s draining me? What feels scattered? What feels solid?

This is where I got really honest about things like:

• Why I keep procrastinating certain projects

• Where I’m over-committing and under-recovering

• What routines aren’t actually working for this version of me

Spoiler alert: Sometimes our schedule isn’t the problem. It’s the expectations we’ve baked into it.

Step 2: Track It Without Trying to Fix It

For one week, I tracked my time in real-time. Not aspirational time. Not “what I planned to do.” Just the truth.

I used my Time Audit Challenge workbook (shameless plug but genuinely helpful) to jot down what I was doing every hour-ish. And listen, I did not try to make it cute.

There were blocks labeled:

• Scrolled for 45 minutes

• “Worked” but mostly avoided the website updates I needed to do.

• Laundry purgatory

• Stared at the fridge, thinking about dinner

No edits. Just evidence.

Because clarity doesn’t come from being perfect—it comes from telling the truth. Brutal honesty over here, my love.

Step 3: Reflect and Realign

At the end of the week, I reviewed my notes and asked myself:

• Where is my time going vs. where I want it to go?

• What patterns keep showing up?

• What’s missing that I need more of (rest, creativity, structure, etc.)?

This is where the lightbulb moments started popping.

Like realizing I kept putting “focus work” in the middle of chaotic time slots. Or that I was working way more hours than I thought but still feeling behind, because I wasn’t protecting time for recovery, planning, or actual deep work.

What this unlocked for me

After just one week of paying attention, I made simple—but powerful—shifts:

• I rearranged my calendar to match my real energy patterns

• I cut out three unnecessary commitments (and boy, did that feel good)

• I added “CEO hour” blocks to review and plan my week, instead of playing catch-up all the time

The difference? I feel more in control of my time. Not because I added more productivity hacks, but because I started making aligned, informed decisions.

And that’s the whole point of a time audit: Clarity → Alignment → Peace.

Want to do this too?

If you’ve been feeling:

• Behind on your goals

• Like your days run you (instead of the other way around)

• Or just out of sync with your life...

I made the 7-Day Time Audit Challenge for exactly this moment.

It’s a guided, doable, non-intimidating way to reset your relationship with time. You’ll walk away with real insights about how you spend your time—and how to change it with intention.

No guilt. No fluff. Just awareness, clarity, and small tweaks that make a big impact.

And it’s coming soon. You can sign up for the waitlist here. Or here. 👇

TL;DR? Here’s your nudge:

You don’t need to overhaul your whole life to feel better.
Start with one honest look at where your time is going.
Start with awareness. Start with grace.
Just… start.

You’re not behind. You’re just one aligned week away from momentum.

Let’s get into it.
