I know all too well what it's like to look like you have it together on the outside, while on the inside, you feel stretched way too thin. That was me in a nutshell as a new patent litigator – constantly anxious I'd drop a ball and never able to be truly present with friends or family during my downtime.

After looking for time/task management help and finding nothing that stuck, I created my own system that worked – and I kept practicing law. It wasn't until 6+ years later that I realized other women felt like I had. And now, I teach them this system so they can get these results, too. Here's the thing:

A time management struggle is a system failure – not a character flaw.

By trading in old to-do lists, etc. for a time management system designed for professional working women, you can be more on top of it all with less stress, know when to say no to more work (with confidence), and take breaks – and actually enjoy them.

It's life-changing. Let me show you how – in a step-by-step, realistic way.

“I am definitely the busiest I have ever been in my life... And yet… I am also probably the most relaxed/calm I have been in a very long time (ever?)...

“This has sincerely been life-changing. I still just cannot believe how relaxed I am AND still on top of everything.”

Rachel David,
Physician & Mom of 3

“Now that I’ve gone through Kelly’s program, I have reclaimed my brain space and have everything in ONE, easy-to-access place. I cannot even express how much more clear my priorities are for my life and my family now as compared to before... This method will pay off for years to come and will only get better as the years go by.”

Dr. Katherine Crites, LX Designer, Houston, TX

“I feel like I have found the map I need to navigate myself through the waters of kids, my business, my interests, and other obligations. It's felt so overwhelming to do everything in the past, and now I feel a sense of calm about getting done what I want to get done.”

Learn My
Step-by-Step Time Management System for women to Manage Your Professional and Personal Time with Confidence

Put in the work over eight weeks to learn this time management system designed for professional working women and reap the benefits for years to come. Let's reduce your stress, bring you clarity, and help you design and live out a life that lights you up.

Let's Break it Down

Here's What You'll Learn

Chapter one

lighten your mental load

We'll bring all of your to-do's and activities together visually in a digital calendar(s) (e.g., Google, Outlook, Apple, a combo) in a manageable way so that you have a streamlined and realistic understanding of how you'll get everything on your plate done over time.

As a result, you’ll feel more calm and confident, knowing you have a game plan that doesn't require you to do it all right now. You'll also see where you need help – and ask for it specifically. This applies at work and at home.

two

reclaim control of your work hours

Feel like you're living in reaction-mode at work? We'll use your calendar to help you actually be able to focus on the work you know is important – all while also still being responsive. We go through practical strategies to handle email, Slack/Teams, meetings, and the deep work you need to get done.

Three

let's get realistic so you feel accomplished at the end of each day

You'll learn step-by-step how to create realistic game plans to accomplish each of your projects without the last-minute scramble, with improved team communication, and in a way that works for the other parts of your life.

Get ready to feel accomplished about what you got done each day – not defeated by unrealistic magical thinking.

four

learn how to plan so you can take breaks – and actually enjoy them

Learn how to plan – with a step-by-step agenda – so you know nothing's falling through the cracks and you can strut into your weekend knowing you're on top of it all. After my weekly planning session, you'll get a weird high from how great it feels. I've even had a client who called her partner up after it and asked them to go buy a bottle of bubbly to celebrate!

You in? JUmp in now

WHEN ALL OF THESE PIECES COME together...

You'll have a new ability to take control of your work hours & workload

You'll be able to be present and relaxed with friends and family – or by yourself!

You'll get clarity about how you'll get it all done personally & professionally (hello, less stress)

You'll have confidence and clarity about when and how to say no to new projects

You'll accomplish what needs to get done with less last-minute scrambles and stress

Jump in now!

“Now I think that I couldn’t afford NOT to take this program. It has changed the way I looked at time and the way my mind processes it. This was a game-changer for me.”

Monica Campbell, Attorney

“This is the most practical, realistic time management program I've seen—and I am a huge productivity nerd and thought I'd seen it all! Well worth the time and money.”

Vivian Kimball, Project Manager, Jamaica Plain, MA

“In 15 years of reporting on productivity tools, I thought I’d tried them all... Then former litigator Kelly Nolan... surprised me with a deceptively simple system... The method has solved my issues of being chronically overbooked and under rested... One month in, I’ve found myself more likely to find time for passion projects... I’m also finding it easier to say no to work and social opportunities.”

Bloomberg Businessweek, Article by Arianne Cohen

How does this program work?

Here's what's included:

Video lessons that walk you step-by-step through the Bright Method™️ & how to get clarity and control over your time and to-do's

You'll receive video lessons during weeks 1-6 that'll walk you step-by-step through the Bright Method™ and help you bring it to life. Watch them when it works best for you!
The lessons and implementation require about 3-5 hours of your time each week. Since they're on-demand in your program portal, you can work through them whenever it works for you.
You'll have access to the videos for the life of my business, so if life happens one week, no worries! You can catch up at your own pace. You also get all updates I make to the program from here on out. My goal is to reduce stress – not add to it. So, don't stress out about not having enough time to work through it if something comes up during the program.

Weekly group Zoom sessions so you can get live feedback, guidance, and support

We'll meet as a group each week to work through any questions and issues that come up and dive deeper into parts of the lessons.
The group Zoom sessions are held every Thursday of the program from 9-10am PST / 12-1pm ET.
Here are the dates of my fall 2023 session if you'd like to block your calendar now (all 9-10am PST / 12-1pm ET unless otherwise noted):

Thursday, Sept. 28, 2023 – only a 30-minute call from 9-9:30am PST/12-12:30pm ET;
Thursday, October 5, 2023
Thursday, October 12, 2023
Thursday, October 19, 2023
Thursday, October 26, 2023
Thursday, November 2, 2023
Thursday, November 9, 2023
Thursday, November 16, 2023

While I'd love to have you attend the live group sessions, I completely get that life happens and you may not be able to join. All sessions will be recorded, uploaded to the program portal, and available for three months after the program ends.

Industry-specific breakout Zoom sessions in weeks 4, 5 & 6 so you can talk time management challenges and solutions with people who get it

Starting in Week 4, you'll have the option to join a second call a week with people in a similar industry. The industry groups are:

Women in Corporate - Oct. 17, 24, 31 - 9am-9:45am PST / 12-12:45pm EST

Business Owners - Oct. 17, 24, 31 - 10am-10:45am PST / 1-1:45pm EST

Medical Professionals - Oct. 18 & 25, Nov. 1 - 9am-9:45am PST / 12-12:45pm EST

Attorneys - Oct. 18 & 25, Nov. 1 - 10am-10:45am PST / 1-1:45pm EST

If you don't fall cleanly into one of these categories, you're welcome to join the group(s) that is closest to your industry. We’re also happy to help advise you about which group is your best fit.
Again, while I’d love for you to join these calls, they are also recorded and made available to you in case you can’t make a call. Note: The only exception to this is when only 1-2 people show up and the conversation turns very personal. In that situation, we reserve the right to keep the recording private to protect the privacy of the person(s) who attended the call.

This program is not just for moms, so we have a mom-specific breakout Zoom session so moms can talk time management challenges and solutions with other moms who get it (and it doesn't take over all of the other calls)

Everyone is welcome to join this mom breakout session scheduled for Tuesday, October 10, 2023 from 9-10am PST / 12-1pm EST.

Private online community so you can harness the knowledge of your program teammates

Throughout the program, we'll have a private online forum (e.g., like a Facebook group but not on Facebook) where you can ask questions, seek input, and share wins with the other members. You'll be amazed at how much you learn from other women facing similar challenges and seeking creative, effective solutions.

Email support with Kelly so you can get your questions answered between sessions and in a more private setting if you prefer

If you need help in between group sessions, I'm available via email. And if you don't want to type it all out, I'll show you how to record your screen and audio so you can walk me through the issue without the headache.

The option to purchase additional one-on-one time with me

First of all, let me be clear: you are welcome to ask me any question about the method and its application to your life on the group calls, in the Community, or via email.
That said, some people like the additional option of working with me one-on-one. During those 1-2 hour-long sessions, I can remote into your computer to help you tailor your system to meet your specific needs so you can quickly get back to rocking your life with a whole new level of clarity and confidence.

“This program was worth the time and money 10x over! I actually told Kelly when I signed up that I was so overwhelmed I probably couldn't even get to the lessons and maybe I had to wait until next year when my work would calm down a bit.

“Oh the irony! I knew I needed it but didn't feel I could squeeze in the time. But the difference it made in just the first two weeks brought so much stress relief that I can't imagine NOT going through it now! For me, 2020 increased my workload and made things more stressful than ever before, and Kelly's program really helped me get more done with less time and ease the stress along the way.”

Dr. Chelsea Pierotti, College Instructor, Business Owner & Mom, Boulder, CO

“Having that single view of all my personal and work to-dos provided incredible clarity and allowed me to work on a game plan to actually get it done… If you are considering enrolling in this program, do it!… My family will be using this program to stay organized for many years to come.”

“After working with Kelly, I feel more efficient, and I now have a process/plan and know how to make decisions to get stuff done. A big win was that my husband jumped on board and coordinating kids' schedules is much easier now. I am not overbooking my time because I can tell when my plate is full.”

Skeptical about time management?
I've been there, too. That’s why I offer this guarantee:

If you're unhappy with the program after our first group call, just email support@kellynolan.com within 24 hours, and I'll refund your full investment - no questions asked. I'm confident in this program, and I want you to be as well.

“Now that I’ve gone through Kelly’s course, I truly feel organized for the first time since college. I know what I need to do, when I need to do it, and how to deal with it if certain tasks take longer than planned or emergencies arise. It has given me a peace of mind that things will get done that I never had before.”

Abby Fanlo,
Ph.D. Candidate,
Stanford University, San Francisco, CA

"Before taking Kelly’s group program, I felt like I must be a failure for not being able to get everything done… I now have so much more clarity and confidence. I no longer blame myself for struggling to complete more tasks than reasonably fit into a given day… I am also enjoying the time I have blocked away for downtime and fun with less guilt.”

Dr. Marytery Fajardo, Physician, Miami, FL

“Don't wait! Money got really tight for us right after I signed up, but it was 100% worth it. Feeling like I am on top of my life and everyone is cared for is worth it. I have everything I need to deal with major life changes going forward and can go into these making decisions that are right for myself and my family priorities. I changed careers and then was promoted during our time together, and I could not have streamlined my life and team as well as I did without Kelly's system in place.”

The Bright Method program is made for you if:

What is the time commitment & is it worth it?

Enroll Now

This program is designed to get you results in just eight weeks. It does require a fair amount of work during those eight weeks, and I know it’s going to sound like a lot right now – especially when you likely already feel tight on time!

In addition to the one-hour calls on Thursdays and, in the last three weeks, the industry-specific 45-minutes calls, I recommend blocking five hours for the week following our first call and then four hours every week after that during the program.

If you fall behind, not to worry! You get the video lessons so long as I'm in business so that you have time to catch up when it works for you, and you are still more than welcome to join all group calls even if you're not up-to-date on the video lessons!

My goal is to reduce stress, not add to it! So, let's get you the results you want when it works for you.

Here's what others have said about the program’s time commitment:

“This program was 100% worth the time investment. I really looked forward to the meetings and to my weekend time watching the videos and getting my life under control.” – Nicole Cohen, Associate IT Director, Mount Sinai Health System & Mom of two
“This program is worth the month and time. It is an investment in yourself. You know the saying ‘it takes money to make money’? Here, it takes time to MAKE time!" – Monica Campbell, Attorney
“The time investment of the program was DEFINITELY worth it! It’s an investment in yourself, and it is time for true self-care.” – Dr. Ece Demir-Lira, Associate Professor & Mom

This is a big financial investment. Is it worth it?

Enroll Now

I recognize that this is a big investment decision. My clients get it, too. Here's what one said:

"Confession: the cost made me gulp. I waited through a couple of programs and had such a hard time justifying the expense. I even read practically every article Kelly ever wrote and tried to piece the Bright Method together for myself! What I learned really helped, but I kept hitting barriers. After finally enrolling in the program, I can say: 100% worth the investment."
– A.M., Marketing Director, California

Learning the Bright Method is well worth it for three main reasons:

The results are life-changing (my clients' words - not just mine);
The method molds to your life, including different life phases as your life changes. Does your life look different right now than it will in six months? In three years? In 20? Yes. This method will adapt with you. It's a big investment, but it will serve you for years (decades, even) to come.
There's incredible support. Not only do you get the curriculum taught to you via video lessons, you'll get group calls where you'll learn from other women in other industries, industry-specific support from other members who join from your industry, and mom-specific support if that applies to you (or even if you're just curious and want to join!). In addition, you have unlimited one-on-one email support from Kelly. If you show up and put in the work, we'll get you to a place where this method feels tailored to your life, preferences, and industry.

And don't just take my word for it. Here's what clients have said:

“This program was worth the time and money 10x over! I actually told Kelly when I signed up that I was so overwhelmed I probably couldn't even get to the lessons and maybe I had to wait until next year when my work would calm down a bit. Oh the irony!

"Investing in Kelly’s program was a no-brainer. There is really no way to put a price tag on getting rid of that daily anxiety of feeling like I was always behind on something." – Tessa Mitchell, Special Education Administrator
"If you’re considering joining Kelly’s group program, DO IT! It's 100% worth every penny. This method has been life changing for me and worth the time and the money to invest." – Alyssa Diaz, Actress, Los Angeles

A little unsure about the "group" part of this program?

Enroll Now

I get it. Sometimes we think one-on-one is "better." That said, even I've been blown away by how fun and valuable the group dynamic is – and it’s now my favorite way for people to learn my method. Here's what some past members have said about it:

"I really enjoyed the group dynamic, which surprised me. I thought I would prefer a 1:1 better, and I do like online courses because I can go at my own pace. BUT I learned SO much from the different women." – Monica Campbell, Attorney

"I really enjoyed the group dynamic. It’s really nice to meet other people and hear their struggles – to feel the sense of community through that connection. Even though we’re all in different fields, we still share that connection. As women, we’ve all been in those scenarios where people try to put things on our plates at work just because we’re the only women there, and to be able to talk about those challenges and how to handle them was powerful." – Tala Kassm, Physician & Mom

"I loved the group dynamic. The women in the group were accomplished, dynamic, and real, and I felt like we would probably be friends in real life. That made the group sessions really fun, and everyone was game to share their own struggles, challenges, and wins." – Danielle Boone

“I love the group aspect of the program, and it’s great to get various perspectives on my questions and to see that other women are in the same boat.” – Amy Phillips, Attorney

How will I be supported in this program?

Enroll Now

Throughout the program, you'll have support from Kelly through the group calls, unlimited email support, and in the Community (think: a Facebook group with the other women in the program, but not on Facebook).

You also have the option to purchase additional one-on-one time with Kelly, but that is by no means required to be successful in the program.

A lot of women also find great support from other women on the group calls and in the Community. The Bright Method is flexible and molds to you, so it's fun and helpful to hear how other women are implementing the method in their lives and careers.

“Kelly is super approachable and genuine! She provides scaffolds and support throughout the program so anyone can access the material.” – Tessa Mitchell, Special Education Administrator

“Kelly was constructive and engaging, supportive and kind, and she keyed in immediately to what my needs were. And she provided me with all the tools I needed...” – Page Ulrey, Lawyer

Wondering how the Bright Method is different than the things you've tried in the past?

Great question. Here's why :

It’s designed for professional working women.

When I struggled with time management, many of the strategies I came across were designed by men, who seemed to have a lot more support at home than I did. Unlike many other systems out there, The Bright Method™ takes into account the number of roles and mental load that women carry and helps you manage them all and lighten your mental load in one comprehensive system that molds to your life, preferences, and industry.

Plus, we talk about things like drawing and enforcing boundaries in ways women, generally speaking, tend to be more comfortable with (which means we actually do those things).

The Bright Method™ is all about practical, step-by-step instructions (not just high-level platitudes).

When I was searching for time management help, I often heard high-level and seemingly simple concepts like “just schedule self-care” and “protect your boundaries.” But when I went to implement them, I couldn’t figure out how to make them work for me in the long term, making me feel even worse about myself.

That’s exactly what I work to avoid here. I show you exactly how to implement, give you more practical examples than you may want, and am here to provide personalized support for you throughout the program.

I want you to walk away from the program with an up-and-running system that’s already giving you that peace of mind you’ve been searching for.

This time management SYSTEM molds to you – it doesn’t cram you into some rigid schedule just because it happens to work for someone else.

I get that your life may look really different than mine and from other clients I work with. Your industry may have its own quirks. Your family may have tons of commitments. You may have certain preferences that have made other, more rigid systems hard to maintain.

That’s why I pride myself on providing a flexible time management method that molds to your life and the support to help you make sure it’s a good fit. Your calendar is going to look very different from every other woman’s calendar in the program, and that’s great! My goal is not to dictate how your day runs – it's to help you obtain peace of mind, calm, clarity, and less stress through using this system.

To help you get there, during my programs, I provide unlimited email support, show you how to ask your questions without having to type anything out, and provide tons of opportunities to get not only my input - but input from other professional working women, some of whom may face similar challenges to you. We’ll make sure the system you walk away with works for you, your industry, your family, and your preferences.

“Before working with Kelly, I felt overscheduled, overwhelmed and inefficient…

“After going through Kelly’s course, I sleep better. I am less anxious about all that I have to do because I know I have a system that allows me to prioritize the most important things first. I feel more put together and I have more confidence in saying yes or no. My mental health all around is much better… My husband and I are better partners to each other because we're getting all the stuff that takes time out in the open and making a game plan for who does what and when.

“I also had more confidence in pushing a prioritization conversation at work with my boss and business partners. I was able to get alignment to work on 3 big priorities for the quarter - only 3. With two weeks left in the quarter, we're on track to deliver all 3, something my boss didn't expect would be possible.”

“After Kelly’s program, I feel like I finally have a realistic idea of all the things I need to get done and a system to track things that’s simple enough that I’ll actually stick with it… Kelly really understands the pain points of trying to balance different roles, and of trying to manage the influx of ‘stuff’ that happens on a daily basis. Kelly teaches a system that’s easy but captures everything and puts it into a realistic context.”
