Feeling overwhelmed by tasks, deadlines, and responsibilities? In this episode of Purpose Driven Progress, we explore how to build a "second brain"—a task management system designed to help you offload mental clutter and focus on what truly matters. Using tools like Todoist and strategies grounded in personal experience, I’ll share how you can create a seamless system to manage your workload, find clarity, and thrive even in chaos.

Whether you’re a student, professional, or entrepreneur, this episode provides actionable tips to:

• Break down overwhelming to-do lists.
• Optimize task management with technology.
• Use gratitude as a tool to shift your mindset.

Join me as I recount how this system helped me turn panic into productivity during a stressful finals week—and how you can do the same in your life. Start thriving today by building your second brain!
