Twenty Minutes is the New Hour: Rethinking Our Relationship with Time
Wednesday, March 3, 2027 | 11:00 AM CST | Live via Zoom
Ever get to the end of a busy day and wonder what you actually accomplished? Between work, family, endless emails, appointments, commitments, and the ever-growing to-do list, it's easy to feel like we're constantly juggling a dozen things but somehow never getting to the ones that matter most.
And somehow, no matter how much we get done, there's always more waiting.
What if the answer isn't finding more hours in the day, but getting smarter about how we spend the ones we have?
Join us for a conversation with Fran Hauser, bestselling author, former media executive, and leadership expert, about her new book, Twenty Minutes Is the New Hour, and why it's time to rethink our relationship with time.
Fran challenges the idea that productivity means doing more, moving faster, or filling every available minute. Instead, she offers a more intentional approach to how we work, prioritize, and make space for the things that matter, both professionally and personally.
We'll explore the habits that quietly steal our time, including what Fran calls the 4 P's: perfectionism, people-pleasing, procrastination, and padding. (We're guessing at least one of those sounds familiar!) We'll also talk about managing overflowing inboxes, rethinking meetings and commitments, and learning when to say no without feeling guilty.
But this conversation isn't just about being more productive. It's about something bigger: how do we stop measuring our days by how much we get done and start thinking about how well we're spending our time?
At Suite Escape, we know our community is full of women balancing careers, families, friendships, community commitments, and ambitions of their own. We're also pretty sure most of us could use a little less pressure to do it all and a little more freedom to decide what actually deserves our attention.
Come ready for practical ideas, a fresh perspective, and a few strategies you can put to work immediately. Because while we can't add more hours to the day, we might just be able to make the ones we have feel a whole lot better.
