Welcome to our weekly Q&A on The Solopreneur Hour! This is our traditional Friday show where I answer the questions you send in via our Facebook groups. You submit your question on Wednesday or Thursday and I answer it for the Friday show; ask about business, relationships, comedy, cars, music, whatever you want to know about and I'll do my best to answer.

Today we cover your questions/my answers, an upcoming speaking engagement I have with Outlier, the latest and greatest on IsaLab and our burgeoning Isagenix Solopreneur Hour family and a new piece of equipment I got that I love. Join us for all of that and so much more on episode number 165.

More About This Show

Before we get to your questions, I also update you on the Outlier conference I'll be speaking at October 22-24 of this year. It's being held in beautiful Zion National Park in Utah. Check out the Resources section for links and more info.

Speaking of events, I recently applied for a press pass to a local racing event and I thought I should remind all of you with podcasts and blogs to do the same. If you have a good-sized audience, find out how to apply for a pass. Submit the info they ask for and see what happens, it's worth looking into.

On a semi-related note, if you spend a lot of time at your desk like I do when I'm recording shows and being interviewed by other people, I found a cool way to get in a bit of a workout. I've got some new heavy resistance bands from Amazon (the red ones are about the equivalent of 25 pound dumbbells) and I use them while chatting.

Staying on the topic of health, you may have heard me talk about Isagenix in the past and I'm ramping up my business again with IsaLab. If you want to use the products or start a network marketing business and do it the right way, contact me to get in on the action.

And lastly, before we get to your questions, I picked up a new mixer at the suggestion of some professional broadcasters. It works great for podcasting, especially if you record in a noisy room. It's the DBX 286S, it's a fantastic device. If you listen to a few previous shows and then this one, you'll hear how my sound quality went from good to great. It's worth investing in if you're a podcaster.

With that, let's get to your questions!

Hi Michael, I have a podcast called NowIsAGift at NowIsAGift.com. I am working on a relaunch of the interview/conversation style show to be published weekly or bi weekly.

But my question is about a short 3-5 min daily podcast that I am launching called NowIsAGift Daily. Is there a way to add a new podcast to the same website & still take advantage of the new and noteworthy time period for that new show?

Thanks for everything you do! #GoBrowns

I've got one... where does taking care of YOU fit into your daily list of 'things to do' it seems like an obvious one, yet so many kinda 'skip' this step... and why do you think that is…
