You are not an

Entitled, self-indulgent job hopper.

That's crazy!


You are motivated to do meaningful work and make a positive impact (without sacrificing your mental health!).

Do you want to live a productive AND fulfilling life?

You’ve been fed a lie.

As a millennial, you’ve been labeled as a lazy, entitled, self-indulgent job hopper with no work ethic…

The fact is, it simply isn’t true.

Millennials get a bad rep by their predecessors. As a generation that overall wants to contribute to a better world, do meaningful work, create generational impact, and live a balanced life, you often feel at a loss for how to accomplish any of it. It feels like you can’t win, right? Like no amount of effort will help you get ahead at work or achieve the balance you crave?

Everything seems to require more and more of you. More time. More effort. More bandwidth. More brain power. Feel like you have nothing left to give? Something has to change...

Hey there!

I'll never forget being labeled as a know-it-all rookie in my early career. Even when I was right, I was wrong.

I am a Gen X'er who is tired of seeing my cohorts label younger workers as lazy and entitled.

As a productivity coach, I reject the notion that workplace effectiveness is generation-specific.

Productivity is a skill set, not a personality or generational trait. Unfair assumptions about an entire generation of workers will limit their opportunities for growth and impact.

I'm here to fill that gap. I want to help you be productive, lower stress, maximize your impact on the world, and ensure that you live a fulfilling life.

I created the Crazy Productive Academy to do just that. It’s time to flip the millennial stereotype on its head. You get to be balanced, effective, and productive.

With love and support,
Melissa​
