CASE STUDY: ANITA MIKHAIL

CASE STUDY: AIDEN MCFARLAND

Anita Mikhail works for a major Fortune 500 company in corporate sales and accounts. She's a mother of two and a step-mother to one. Needless to say – she's got an extremely busy life!

But up until this year, she was finding it very challenging to effectively manage her time. She didn't know how to set healthy work boundaries for herself, and she wasn't prioritizing her projects correctly. “Life kept throwing things my way, and I didn't quite know how to tackle them. Things weren't clicking correctly, and I knew I needed to do something about it,” she recalls.

Anita joined our Focus and Control Time Mastery Membership and quickly realized the issue – “I wasn't approach time management holistically. I was effectively manipulating my calendar, but that wasn't enough. It has to be a 360 approach. Everything has to work together.”

After spending a few months with the membership, she felt like she was ready for more. She says: “I wanted to supercharge my productivity. Take it to the next level. I wanted to really invest in myself and shoot for the moon, because I knew that I was capable of a lot more.” So she joined our 60-day intensive bootcamp.

Watch her testimonial here to hear more about her life before, during and after the 60-day bootcamp:

“I've got control of more of the controllable now. I'm in charge of my destiny and where I put my energy now. It's liberating,” she muses. She no longer works evenings to catch up on work, she's got more of a social life, and her cortisol levels actually went down as she was going through the bootcamp!

But probably the most surprising result for her came in the form of contentment: “I thought I needed to add something to my life by starting a side business. But going through this bootcamp has given me a shift in perspective, and now I understand that it's not about adding more into my life, but rededicating myself to what's already in it. I'm enjoying work so much more now – and getting so much more done!”
