More Than Just Task Management

Most productivity advice focuses on getting more done. But what if productivity was never the goal? What if the real goal was creating a life you love?

Hosted by Anna Angelova and Jores Minasvand, co-creators of Plandore, More Than Just Task Management explores the deeper questions behind success, growth, and fulfillment.

Each week, we dive into the ideas, habits, systems, and mindsets that help people move from busyness to purpose and from achievement to meaningful living. Through practical insights, real-world experience, timeless principles, and thoughtful conversations, we explore the seven pillars of the Plandore Framework:

  • Vision & Goals: creating clarity and direction
  • Identity & Mindset: becoming the person capable of achieving your vision
  • Habits & Systems: turning intention into consistency
  • Performance & Productivity: progressing with energy, focus, and joy
  • Leadership & Relationships: succeeding with and through others
  • Fulfillment & Life Design: building a life aligned with your values and purpose
  • Plandorians: stories, lessons, and inspiration from people intentionally designing their lives

Whether you're pursuing personal goals, building a business, leading a team, navigating a life transition, or simply seeking a more intentional way to live, this podcast will help you connect your daily actions to the bigger picture of who you want to become.

Because life is about more than just task management.
