I asked listeners of How I Work to send in the biggest challenges they’re facing at work right now: from AI overwhelm to constant meetings to feeling busy but not actually making progress. In this Ask Me Anything episode, I tackle questions like: Why AI is making some people  busier , not more productive How to reclaim focus when your day is full of meetings The biggest productivity mistake I see smart people make What actually helps prevent burnout (hint: it’s not yoga at lunchtime) Plus I share practical strategies you can start using immediately — including my LiPS prioritisation strategy, ways we reduce meetings at Inventium, and how to protect your energy at work. If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed, distracted, or stuck in “busy mode”, this episode is for you.   Amantha recommends:   These are a few of the tools we use at Inventium to reduce meetings, communicate more effectively, and get work done faster. Loom: http://loom.com/ Our go-to for async communication. Instead of jumping on a meeting, we’ll record a quick video to share updates, feedback, or walkthroughs. Tella: https://www.tella.tv/  A more polished version of Loom. I use this a lot for client-facing communication – especially when walking through proposals or ideas in a more engaging way. If you’re looking to go beyond just “using AI” and actually start saving time with it, check out Inventium’s latest  AI programs for 2026 - designed to help you use AI strategically and creatively in your work. https://www.inventium.ai/      Have a question you want me…","meta_description":"**Record a question for Amantha’s next Ask Me Anything here: https://www.speakpipe.com/howiwork ** It's Ask Me Anything time!
