011: Launching & Growing A Successful Practice With Scott Rattigan

What if the secret to better time management wasn’t another productivity hack – but learning how to pre-decide what really matters?

In this episode of the Health and Wellness Marketing Show, Uli Iserloh sat down with author, speaker, and Real Life Process® creator Teresa McCloy to explore a new approach to decision-making, time blocking, and life design. Drawing from her book Do What Matters, Teresa shares how pre-decision and intentional rhythms can help you reduce decision fatigue, live from rest – not rush – and align your calendar with your values.

If you’re constantly overwhelmed, over-scheduled, or stuck in indecision, this conversation offers a gentle but powerful reset.

  • Discover why decision fatigue is draining your energy – and how pre-deciding your values and priorities helps free up mental bandwidth.
  • Learn Teresa’s Real Life Process® framework for creating a modern-day “rule of life” with rhythms of rest, review, and renewal.
  • Understand the power of pre-decision as a discernment tool to help you say yes (and no) with confidence.
  • Find out how to align your calendar with what truly matters – your people, your self-care, your creative work, and your big projects.
  • Explore simple practices like quarterly retreats, gratitude journaling, and soul care to stay grounded and present in your daily life.
