The Freedom Reset Story
From drowning in back-to-back meetings to designing a life of intention—here's how the methodology was born.
James Franklin
Founder, The Freedom Reset™
"I built this because I needed it first."
Five years ago, I was the person who said yes to everything. Every meeting invite, every "quick call," every "do you have five minutes?" My calendar was a Tetris game of overlapping commitments, and my actual work—the creative, strategic work that mattered—happened at 11 PM.
I was exhausted. Successful on paper, but running on fumes. The worst part? I thought this was just "how it is" for ambitious professionals.
Then I hit a wall. A missed deadline. A strained relationship. A Sunday afternoon where I realized I hadn't had an unscheduled hour in months. Something had to change.
I started experimenting. What if I shortened every meeting by 5 minutes? What if I batched all "quick questions" into a single Office Hours block? What if I protected just two hours a week for deep work?
Within two weeks, I had reclaimed 6 hours. Within a month, I finished projects that had been stuck for quarters. The Calendar Detox was born.
The Problem We Solve
Calendar Chaos
Back-to-back meetings leave no room for the work that actually matters. You're busy but not productive.
Boundary Fatigue
Saying "no" feels political. So you say yes, and your priorities become everyone else's priorities.
Context-Switch Tax
Every interruption costs 23 minutes to refocus. Multiply that by 10 daily meetings and you've lost your day.

Our Philosophy
Rhythm Over Resolution
Willpower fades. Systems endure. We build rituals that protect your time automatically, so you don't have to fight for it every day.
Boundaries Are Professional
Saying no isn't selfish—it's what allows you to say yes to what matters. Clear boundaries signal clarity, not coldness.
Progress Over Perfection
You don't need to transform overnight. Start with one canceled meeting, one protected hour, one boundary enforced.
Work That Works For You
High achievement shouldn't require high sacrifice. You can be successful AND present, ambitious AND balanced.
