If productivity systems tend to let you down, reading The PLAN will be such a relief.

APPLE BOOKS REVIEW
With wit and wisdom, time-management expert Kendra Adachi deftly removes the male gaze from productivity. Noting that over 90 percent of productivity guides are written by men and, by extension, are really for men, she changes that narrative by focusing honestly on how time management works for women. Drawing on a variety of experts, she offers a host of action PLANs—standing for “prepare, live, adjust, and notice”—for making the most of a day, week, month, or season, and she builds productivity around a woman’s menstrual cycle, leaning into the natural hormonal variations as a guidepost for planning. Adachi helpfully adds summaries and pep talks to make the main points available in bite-size pieces that are easy to revisit. Handling the narration herself, she breaks out the easy charm that makes her Lazy Genius podcast so popular. By putting women at the center, The PLAN delivers time-management advice that understands the unique challenges of being expected to be everything to everyone without complaint.
