You don’t need to be “on” 24/7 to be responsible, you just need a better system.

In today’s Thrive in 5, I’m showing you how to take back control of your inbox by setting intentional check-in times, reducing interruptions, and using quick replies to save time. This isn’t about ignoring your messages, it’s about making sure they don’t run you.

What we cover:

  • How to schedule 2–3 inbox check-in times daily
  • Why turning off notifications is non-negotiable
  • Quick hacks: saved templates + voice notes for FAQs
  • Action steps to block time + set boundaries today

🎯 You can be efficient, responsive, and focused—all at once. Let’s set up your system.
