In this episode of Wild & Waking, I sit down with productivity coach and creator of the Cosmic Productivity Method, Chelsey Newmyer, for a conversation about what it really means to build routines that support your real life. Together, we explore the idea that productivity is personal—and why so many traditional productivity and time management systems fall short when they ignore our energy, responsibilities, and season of life. If you’ve ever felt like you were doing all the “right” things but still felt burned out or behind, this conversation offers a refreshing and deeply practical perspective.


Chelsey shares how she began integrating astrology and Human Design into her approach to productivity after realizing that one-size-fits-all advice didn’t reflect the realities of everyday life. Instead of forcing rigid routines or chasing hustle culture expectations, she helps clients design their days around their unique energy patterns, goals, and responsibilities. We talk about how understanding your sun, moon, and rising signs—along with your Human Design type—can provide powerful insight into when you work best, how you recharge, and how to create sustainable momentum without constant pressure.


One of the most impactful takeaways from this conversation is redefining what it means to have a “productive day.” Chelsey reframes productivity not as doing more, but as making meaningful progress toward your goals in a way that aligns with your capacity and values. We dive into practical tools like building a personalized morning routine, using a good, better, best framework to stay flexible, and experimenting with small changes to discover what truly works for your energy and lifestyle. This episode is especially relevant for busy women, entrepreneurs, and working parents who want to stay consistent without sacrificing their well-being.


Ultimately, this conversation is an invitation to let go of hustle without losing momentum. It’s about honoring your energy, embracing experimentation, and designing routines and rhythms that feel supportive rather than stressful. Whether you’re new to astrology and Human Design or simply searching for a more sustainable approach to productivity, this episode will help you rethink how you structure your day—and remind you that progress doesn’t have to come at the cost of your peace.

About Wild & Waking: 

Wild & Waking is more than a podcast—it’s a sacred return to who you’ve always been.


This space is for the woman standing at the edge of everything she’s outgrown. The one who’s checked all the boxes, followed all the rules, and still feels the quiet ache for something more honest. More alive. More hers.


She’s begun the unraveling—of roles, expectations, identities that no longer fit. She’s remembering the voice beneath the noise, the rhythm beneath the hustle, the truth beneath the performance. She’s reclaiming her joy, her intuition, her fire. And she’s rising—not as a version of who she was told to be, but as the truest expression of who she already is.


Hosted by soul expansion coach Emily Reuschel, Wild & Waking is for the spiritual entrepreneurs, coaches, rural changemakers, and conscious leaders dismantling old paradigms and creating new ways of living, leading, and becoming. Through raw conversations, deep reflections, and embodied wisdom, we explore what it means to awaken a life of abundance, authenticity, and purpose.


This is for the woman who holds both sacred rage and radical joy. Who moves with reverence for the seasons of her life. Who isn’t afraid to break cycles, speak truth, and dismantle what no longer serves—not to destroy, but to create. To rebuild a world rooted in the celebration of difference, the beauty of nuance, and the power of sovereign, embodied leadership.


If you’re ready to come home to yourself—fully, fiercely, and without apology—welcome.


We’ve been waiting for you.
