Stop Following Productivity Rules That Don't Fit Your Life
Build a weekly planning framework designed for YOUR energy, YOUR priorities, and YOUR version of life’s chaos.
Does This Sound Like You?
You're doing everything "right"…time-blocking your calendar, trying the apps, following the morning routines.
So why does it still feel like you're always behind?
Here's what you’ve realized:
Your brain is cluttered with half-finished thoughts, open loops, and logistics for everything and everyone.
Your partner and kids get your leftovers.
You've tried it all:
You’ve time-blocked and color-coded yet another pretty planner (only to stop using it a month later).
You’ve downloaded all the “top 10” productivity apps (but they didn’t quite work for your brain and ugh - another subscription fee).
You’ve followed someone else’s “perfect morning routine” (and felt like a failure by day three when life didn’t cooperate).
You hired a business coach (maybe revenue went up, but your bandwidth is now unsustainable)
You went on a wellness retreat (felt amazing for 3 days, then right back to the chaos)
Nothing sticks because your life and priorities are constantly evolving and changing.
So what worked 6 months ago doesn’t today - and you go right back to the drawing board.
More tired, drained, and overcommitted.
Your problem isn’t lack of time...
Chaos is showing up in three areas of your life.
-
You're exhausted from decision fatigue.
You've spent about running errands is chaotic in itself—but the thought you have to have about it, before you can even begin? The level of planning required just to open a simple Google Doc that "should" be easy? That's why you're exhausted.
Your brain is cluttered with half-finished thoughts, open loops, and "can't forget this" moments you never seem to capture in time.
-
Every day is different—yet you keep trying to fit your life into someone else's rigid system.
Every day, you're trying to fit 12 hours of work and life into 8. The level of planning required to get through the day is relentless.
You feel trapped in obligations you didn't mean to take on. But you don't know how to fix it.
-
You're overwhelmed by outside expectations.
You're a chronic over-scheduler/multi-tasker juggling way too many obligations and expectations. You've built your business or life around always being available. You're the person people turn to because you're capable. And the resentment is creeping in.
The TRUTH Nobody Tells You
Most productivity advice teaches you to react faster.
Answer emails quicker. Time block more. Optimize harder. Wake up at 5am. Do all the self-care.
But what happens when your kid gets sick on Tuesday, a client emergency blows up Wednesday, and by Friday you're rewriting the same to-do list you wrote on Monday?
You don't need more discipline.
You need to stop following productivity rules that don't fit your life—and build your own system instead.
That's what Chaos Detox teaches you to do.
What If Next Friday Felt Different?
Maybe not Pinterest-perfect — but complete.
-
- 01 -
White space in your calendar.
Breathing room in your brain. -
- 02 -
A schedule that adapts to you.
Not the other way around. -
- 03 -
The deep satisfaction of done.
Instead of defeat.
You can feel that sense of accomplishment and ease.
You just need the right framework.
IntroducingChaos Detox
A Framework for Building YOUR Own Systems
You don't need another planner. You need a framework that teaches you how to think about YOUR time, energy, and priorities—then helps you build a system that fits your real lived experience.
Chaos Detox is an online course + AI-powered planning tool for women entrepreneurs who are tired of productivity systems that don't fit their actual lives.
This works for you if:
You've tried templates and they broke when life got chaotic
You're exhausted from trying to force systems that don't fit
You want something built around YOUR energy and priorities (not someone else's ideal)
You know some weeks are better than others—and you need a system that handles that
You’ve tried all the hacks.
You don’t need another Playbook.
What if you said "No more" to...-
- X -
Too many obligations and not enough time.
Chaos Detox helps you create space—not squeeze more in.
-
- X -
Spiraling when plans fall apart.
You’ll respond with clarity and calm—not self-criticism.
-
- X -
Questioning your abilities or worth.
You’re not lazy. You’re burned out from survival mode.
-
- X -
Ending every day behind and frazzled.
You’ll end your day feeling satisfied and done—even if it wasn’t perfect.
You're drowning sister…
Chaos Detox is your life line because:
It was built for the chaos: curveballs, sick kids, and surprise deadlines aren’t “disruptions”—they’re part of the plan.
It helps you stop cramming 8 hours of to-dos into 4, and start working in a way that protects your time, brain, and energy.
It rewrites productivity as clarity and calm—not pressure, guilt, or the myth of doing it all.
It ditches one-size-fits-all tactics and helps you build a system that works with your life, not against it.
It’s designed to quiet the noise, close the loops, and give you back the headspace you’ve been craving.
Here’s How It Works:
You'll Build Your Own System (I'll Show You How)
This isn't a "watch videos and hope it works" course. You'll actually do the work to build your framework—but here's the thing:
You're already doing the work. You're just doing it in your head, on repeat, every single week.
This course takes all that mental work you're already doing (the spinning, the re-prioritizing, the "what should I do first?" paralysis) and gives you a structure to do it ONCE per week instead of constantly.
What you'll actually do:
✓ Brain dumps. Get everything out of your head so you can finally see what you're carrying. (You're doing this mentally right now—we're just making it external.)
✓ Honest look at reality. See where your time and energy actually go (not where you wish they went). This part might sting a little. Do it anyway.
✓ Build your framework. Use your actual energy patterns, your actual capacity, your actual priorities. Not someone else's template.
✓ Adjust as you go. Your first version won't be perfect. That's not failure—that's how this works. You'll refine it as you learn what fits.
Yes, this requires participation. But it's less work than what you're doing now—it's just intentional instead of reactive.

Wondering If Chaos Detox Is For You?
This Course Is For You If…
✓ You're a high-capacity woman entrepreneur dealing with burnout

✓ You're willing to do the work of building something custom
✓ You want a system that flexes with your chaos (not fights it)

✗ You're looking for a quick fix without making real effort
✗ You expect perfection on your first try
✗ You're not willing to invest 3-5 hours upfront building your framework
✗ You need constant hand-holding through every decision.
By The End Of This Course, You Will:
More importantly: You'll stop feeling like you're failing at productivity — because you'll finally have a system designed for YOUR life, not someone else's ideal.
-
Built by you, for you—using your actual energy patterns, capacity, and priorities. Not someone else's template.
-
A repeatable planning method that takes under 60 minutes per week. Your AI assistant walks you through it every single week.
-
The ability to reset when things fall apart (without starting from scratch). Adjust and continue—don't abandon and restart.
-
A framework that accommodates fluctuating capacity and real-life chaos. Some weeks are better than others—your system handles that.
Real Talk: Common Concerns
-
I hear you. Here's the reality:
You'll spend 3-5 hours TOTAL over the first few weeks. That's it. Not 6 weeks of daily homework or hour-long modules.
Here's how it actually works:
Week 1-2: 2-3 hours (Foundation + Audit)
Week 3-4: 2-3 hours (Building Your Framework)
Week 5-6: 1-2 hours (Implementation + Refinement)
After that? 30-60 minutes per week using your AI Planner (or your preferred planning method).
Compare that to the hours you're currently spending overwhelmed, reactively putting out fires, and rewriting the same to-do list.
This is less work than what you're already doing. It's just intentional.
-
Because you've been trying templates built for someone else's life. This time, you're building a framework custom to YOURS. When it doesn't work, you don't blame yourself—you adjust the framework. That's the difference.
-
You'll spend 3-5 hours over the first few weeks building your framework. But you're already spending hours every week feeling overwhelmed, rewriting your to-do list, and trying to make systems work that don't fit.
This is an investment that pays back every single week.
-
The AI Planner runs in ChatGPT (which is free). Setup takes about 10 minutes and the instructions are designed for non-tech people. If you can copy and paste, you can set it up.
-
Good—neither can I. This framework is built on flexibility, not rigidity. You'll create guideposts (not rigid schedules) and learn how to reset when things fall apart (because they will).
-
That's because everything else was a template that didn't fit your life. When it broke, you thought YOU failed. This time, you're building something custom that's designed to iterate and adjust—not break.
You're not failing when you adjust. You're doing exactly what the framework is designed for.
-
After the initial 3-5 hour investment building your framework, you'll spend 45-60 minutes per week on planning. That's it.
Compare that to the hours you currently spend feeling overwhelmed, reactively putting out fires, and rewriting the same to-do list every week.
-
Yes. That's the entire point. Your framework will be built to accommodate fluctuating capacity—not fight it. Some weeks you'll have more bandwidth. Some weeks less. Your system flexes with that reality.

About Your Coach
About Your Coach
Hi, I’m Cara Chace
I'm a 10-year entrepreneur, former Special Agent, homeschooling mom of 2, and recovering people-pleaser who learned the hard way that most productivity systems assume your life is predictable.
(Spoiler: it's not.)
I built Chaos Detox after years of white-knuckling my way through every week—trying every planner, every app, every method—and watching them all fail when real life happened.
Here's what I know:
You're not broken. The systems are broken.
You don't need another template. You need to learn how to build YOUR system—one that flexes with your chaos instead of fighting it.
That's what I teach. White space in your calendar as a strategy. Breathing room in your brain as a habit.
I also host the Ditch the Chaos Podcast, where I talk about this stuff weekly. And I work 1:1 with women entrepreneurs through coaching services when they need personalized support.
But Chaos Detox? This is where most women start. Because you need the framework before you can build the system.
I'm glad you're here.
