How to Reclaim Your Time and Boost Business Productivity with Nick Sonnenberg

The Jasmine Star Show

The concept of maximizing time is deeply personal for me…I’m convinced that time is our most valuable resource because it’s the one thing we can’t get back.

I’m SUPER specific about how I manage my time—especially when it comes to my inbox!

I had the pleasure of chatting with Nick Sonnenberg, CEO of Leverage and an operational efficiency consultant. This conversation is a must-listen for anyone looking to streamline their communication (and increase productivity as a result!).

Nick has a brilliant framework for getting organized—it’s called the CPR method—and he’s going to break it all down for us.

We’ll dive into how systems, tools, and better communication can not only make your business run smoother but also give you the freedom to focus on what really matters.
