For a decade, business coach George Kao has been a highly successful, purpose-driven solopreneur doing work that he loves…while still maintaining amazing work-life balance. How on earth does he do it? By practicing the compassionate mindset, routines, tools, practices, and skills he teaches in his groundbreaking book and workshop, Joyful Productivity.

Leaving the well-trodden path of other productivity books, which push us to do more, go faster, cut corners, and sacrifice life balance to rigid formulas & systems, Joyful Productivity teaches us a more natural, mindful, healthy way. George and his hundreds of clients and students are living proof that productivity can indeed be joyful!

These coaching sessions are designed to provide one-to-one, hands-on implementation of the tools, strategies, and methods that will change your working life forever, opening up a whole new world of joyful efficiency and peace of mind.

Who are these sessions for?

If you’ve read the Joyful Productivity book or attended the Joyful Productivity online training, you are already familiar with the principles and have had a chance to practice them with mini-exercises throughout the book and course.

These private sessions are designed for those who’d like a helping hand in taking the principles a step further. If you could benefit from a one-to-one experience of setting up and learning the tools and systems in your own environment (your computer and your life), these are for you.

Choose from the six main sessions below, or we can customize one to cover EXACTLY what you most feel you need to learn right now.

What do they look like?

Enjoy a fun, lively private 60-minute video coaching sessions via Zoom, each a hands-on implementation of a vital section of the Joyful Productivity curriculum. Leave the session with everything in place, and take it from there.

Schedule your session(s) at a time convenient for you.

Receive a full recording of each session (video and/or audio) so you can come back to the step-by-step process at any time.

Email follow-up to check on your progress and answer any questions or challenges that may have arisen.

About Me

I’m Margaret Rode, and for more than 20 years I’ve been a consultant, coach, and tech sherpa serving thoughtful solo entrepreneurs, small businesses, and nonprofits.

I offer this training for a very selfish reason: I fell in love with the concept of joyful productivity after it completely changed my own business. The extra time, calm, and life balance it’s created (and continues to create) enable me to serve more people, work with compassion, and grow my business in beautiful ways. If I can help even one other person do this happy dance with me, I consider that an awesome day.

I’ve personally taken the training twice, and will probably take it each time it’s offered, as the material is always evolving. I’ve also been part of George Kao’s MasterHeart coaching and mastermind group , where we discuss and share many of these strategies to help one another thrive — I highly recommend it.

What do these sessions cost, and how can I book mine?

Each hour-long private session costs just $75.00.

(And it will pay for itself many, many times over.)

You can take one, take them all, repeat sessions to set up more tools and systems, or create a custom session that checks off exactly what you need to learn right now.

Joyful productivity strategies can help you grow the peaceful, purposeful, and profitable work you’ve always wanted. Treat yourself and your business to the gift of organization, extra time, a quiet mind, and life balance.
