I want my brain back

Tonight you close every single one.

Your brain has 89,544 tabs open.

In just a few hours I walk you step-by-step through building ONE place that holds your entire mental load, so it's finally out of your brain and the noise in your head can finally... stop.

Testimonial 1 Testimonial 2 Testimonial 3 Testimonial 4 Testimonial 5 Testimonial 6 Testimonial 7 Testimonial 8 Testimonial 9 Testimonial 10 Testimonial 11 Testimonial 12 Testimonial 13 Testimonial 1 Testimonial 2 Testimonial 3 Testimonial 4 Testimonial 5 Testimonial 6 Testimonial 7 Testimonial 8 Testimonial 9 Testimonial 10 Testimonial 11 Testimonial 12 Testimonial 13

It was supposed to use one.

Your brain was never supposed to be the system.

Then I knowww that your brain has turned into a filing cabinet. It's so busy TRACKING everything you need to do that it's already maxed out when you go to actually prioritize what needs to get done when.

It's why you have notes in your phone, a planner you haven't touched since January, and reminders you swipe away without reading.. and somehow you STILL feel like you're forgetting something.

"OMG, TODAY is the day I finally schedule that doctor appointment."
"AH, I almost forgot that proposal is due today!"
"Shoot, the birthday party is Saturday and we still don't have a gift."
"Did I ever respond to that email?"

If the inside of your head sounds like this..

  • You sit down to work and the first hour disappears into emails (aka what everyone ELSE needs from you).

  • You end up FREEZING because you don't know where to start, and you waste more time there.

  • By the time you get to your actual priorities, half the day is gone and you're already behind.

And the hours are probably the cheapest part.

How many nights have you laid awake staring at the ceiling, running through everything you still need to do? How much of your day goes to remembering things on behalf of everyone else, and then reminding them? How many good ideas never made it past a sticky note? What about the promotion, or the business idea, you never had the bandwidth to go after?

When you don't have a solid way to manage, prioritize, and schedule your tasks..

You trust that something else is carrying everything (finally), so you can actually be off when you're off. And when you are working, you're working.

You're not staring at your phone because you don't know where to start, or burning an hour on something that should have taken ten.

You know exactly what to do and you just do it.

This is what it feels like when your brain isn't the filing cabinet anymore.

Waking up knowing what's first without checking anything

Looking at the clock at noon and your lunch is already on the table

In the car at pickup actually listening to how their day went

Husband says relax and your brain actually... lets you

Phone down at 9pm because nothing's hanging over tomorrow

after ceo mode

Waking up reaching for your phone before your feet hit the floor

Looking at the clock at 3pm and realizing you haven't eaten anything yet

In the car at school pickup catching up on emails while your kid loads in

Husband says just relax but your brain has a list it has to finish first

11pm typing one more thing into your phone so you don't forget by morning

Before ceo mode

Picture a different version of the same week

– corporate VP, mom of 2

"Hi Alex, You have been such a lifesaver. I used to spend my entire day just trying to get through my required tasks, so deep in the weeds I never got to the work that would actually move me forward.

You helped me free up an extra 4 extra hours per DAY.
Four. Once those hours opened up, I was able to start focusing on things I've been meaning to get to for years. I got a promotion within two months. I genuinely wouldn't have had the bandwidth to even attempt that work without this. Thank you. Really."

"I was able to start focusing on things I've been meaning to get to for years."

i want my brain back

Built in Asana because it's free, flexible, and holds your work and your life in one place without another subscription.

You don't need to know Asana going in..
I show you every click, from a blank screen.

CEO Mode teaches you why your brain won't let go of your to-do list FIRST. Then you build the system around how your brain actually works, with your real tasks, your real projects, and your real priorities inside it.

Plus the kind of mental space you forgot was even possible.

A 20-minute weekly review that keeps the system on track.

You'll have a 5-minute daily check-in that tells you exactly what to focus on.

A self-led course where you build ONE complete system for your work and your life, alongside me, in a single afternoon.

When you're done, every task, project, goal, and responsibility you carry has a home so your brain can finally stop being the one holding all of it.

Your entire life, systemized in one afternoon.

MODE

CEO

introducing:

  • A daily view that shows you what matters today, instead of the forty that don't.

  • Every task you're carrying, work and home, in ONE place with a date on it, so nothing has to live in your head anymore.

  • Your 90-day priorities pinned at the top of everything, so every yes and no finally has a compass.

  • A five-second capture for the 10:30pm thoughts. Phone out, drop it in, back to your night.

  • The reminder that shows up the day the thing is due. The permission slip, the renewal, the birthday gift. It comes to YOU.

Everything You Get

Run

You design your week on your real calendar, install the weekly review and the daily look, and learn the 15-minute reset for the week everything goes sideways, so falling off never means starting over.

03

Build

You open Asana and build, step by step. Your projects for work and home, the Someday/Maybe list for everything you're not doing yet, the two tags that sort your entire life, and the tasks that repeat on their own so the furnace filter never lives in your head again. Every task gets filtered BEFORE it goes in.. this is where I stop you from building the digital junk drawer your last system turned into.
8 lessons

02

Orient

You learn why your brain won't let go of an open loop and why you keep underestimating how long things take. You name your priorities for the next 90 days, then get every single thing out of your head with the Brain Dump. You don't touch Asana yet, and that's deliberate.. opening the tool first is the mistake most people make. The tool comes AFTER your brain is clear on what goes in it.

The CEO Mode Method

Most productivity advice gives you a tool and calls it done... and that is exactly why it doesn't last more than a week.

I've spent years teaching people from every career and walk of life to build this exact system.. VPs, doctors, agency owners, entrepreneurs, moms running a household like a small company. Watching that many real lives go into it taught me a bunch of secrets, mostly about where these systems break. So I teach you what to do and EXACTLY what not to do. That's what saves you the time, the trial and error, and the millionth new system you start once and then stop.

Three stages. Skip one and it falls apart. Do them in order and it holds.

and the results just keep coming in...

This is what it looks like on a day that doesn't go according to plan

"Before Alex, I had three different scheduling systems going at once, including Post-its and notepads as reminders for my next reminders. I'd convinced myself it was working until I noticed I was overwhelmed more times than I want to admit.

Moving my whole "system" over to one online tool sounded exciting and also terrifying. I was sure it was going to be too complicated to figure out. NOPE! Alex made it so straight forward.

Within a week I was more prepared going into Monday than I'd ever been before.  A year later, Asana is the first thing I open every morning right after my Bible. It's been life-changing for me as a mom of two and a business owner. Life is too short to feel overwhelmed all the time."

My job for over a decade was walking into companies like LinkedIn, Tesla, and Wells Fargo and finding the invisible inefficiencies nobody inside could see, operations that looked fine from the outside but were wasting time and energy underneath. Then I'd redesign the whole system.

Until a panic attack on a bathroom floor in China (after way too many late nights and working weekends) showed me my own life had no systems of its own. So I went back to school for counseling psychology and learned why smart, capable people struggle to follow through on things they already know how to do.

Now I have three kids under five, a business, and days that actually have structure, because the system holds everything my brain used to carry. CEO Mode is how I built that.

You're looking for another planner or app to magically fix your overwhelm.

You like the IDEA of having a system, but aren't going to commit to actually using it.

You'd rather keep telling yourself you'll get to it later when there's... "more time"

This Is NOT For You If:

You've built more than you ever used to carry and your brain has been holding it all together on its own.

You're done telling yourself you'll figure it out once things calm down. You already know they're not going to.

You're ready to block off an afternoon and build the system once, not bookmark another tip from someone who isn't juggling what you're juggling.

This Is For You If:

You've been holding it all together from memory, and you're good at it. You've just run out of room.

So picture three months from now. It's a random Tuesday, something blows up at 2pm, and instead of the week collapsing you open one app, move three things, and keep going. The laptop closes at 9. Your brain closes with it.

You've bought the planner and the app before, so you already know the catch. You still have to sit down and build it (I can't do that part for you). That's the whole ask. One afternoon, with a 30-day guarantee underneath it if I'm wrong.


At some point, it started feeling like a cage.

Being the one who handles everything used to feel like a superpower.

Common Questions

I've tried apps and tools before and they never stick. +

Because they gave you a tool without a methodology. CEO Mode teaches why your brain works the way it does, gives you a prioritization system, then builds everything around your real life. And if it ever gets messy, the CEO Reset gets you back on track in 15 minutes.

Can I just watch free Asana tutorials on YouTube? +

You can learn what every button does. You can't get a complete system designed for someone managing a complex life. The brain dump, the prioritization method, the daily and weekly rhythms, the AI tools. That's what makes this different.

Is this just for business owners? +

No. CEO Mode is for anyone managing complexity. VPs, therapists, doctors, entrepreneurs, stay-at-home parents running a household like a small company.

How long does this take? +

Less than 2 hours of video content. With building pauses, plan for a focused afternoon,or split it out across a weekend depending on how you like to work. Then 5 minutes daily and 20 minutes weekly to run it.

I don't have time for this right now. +

That's exactly why you need it. The time you're already losing every week to figuring out what to do is more than the time it takes to build the system that ends that loop. If you only have an hour this weekend, start Module 1. The rest can roll out across the next week.

Do I need to pay for Asana? +

No. The entire system runs on Asana's free plan.

What if I fall behind or stop using it? +

That's exactly what the CEO Reset is for. 15 minutes and you're back on track. No starting over. No guilt. Just reopen it and pick up where you left off.

"I'm a mompreneur: a mom to a 2-year-old toddler who runs her own web and SEO agency (plus a wife), so the idea of having a system in place to help get organized in my personal and professional life sounded like a dream come true. I have no regrets :)

I loved the practical examples of your personal life you shared during the application, as they were very relatable and transferable to my own life. It's life-changing and makes me feel so much more put together and organized.I feel SO MUCH lighter!

I never imagined that using a system like this would remove the mental load and stress I'd constantly experience due to all the to-dos in my life. Thank you, Alex! I'm a fan of you, your work and the help you've provided."
