About the Course

Bringing your values into your calendar—and your calendar into alignment with what really matters.

In this on-demand webinar, behavior analyst, coach, and author Dr. Siri Ming introduces the Mindful Action Plan (MAP)—a practical, ACT-based tool designed to help you make more deliberate, values-based choices in how you spend your time and energy.

Drawing from both Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and core principles of behavior analysis, Siri introduces you to using the MAP to:

  • Clarify your values and translate them into daily actions

  • Identify and work around common external and internal barriers to doing what matters

  • Integrate performance management and executive functioning strategies in service of psychological flexibility

  • Build time management systems that work with your behavior, not against it

In four short video lessons, you’ll walk through each element of the MAP, with examples from Siri’s own work and tools you can start using immediately—whether you’re working with clients, supporting teams, or simply trying to survive your own to-do list.

This webinar pairs especially well with Finding Your Why and Finding Your Way, or as a gentle, flexible starting point for bringing more clarity, purpose, and vitality to your everyday routines.
