Feeling like you have to be “on” 24/7 just to keep up with content creation? In this episode, I’m breaking down why that pressure is a myth—and how to set up a livestream schedule that supports your business and your life. If you’ve ever wondered how to show up consistently without burning out, you’ll want to hear these practical strategies (and a few hard-won lessons from my own journey).

In this episode, you’ll learn:

• Why feeding the “always online” beast will drain your time and energy—and what to do instead
• How to finally set non-negotiables so you can protect family, health, and “real life”
• A simple framework for planning livestreams (from ideation to repurposing) that won’t eat your week
• How and when to use scheduling tools and automation without feeling like a robot
• Why guilt and perfectionism can sabotage your creativity—and how to give yourself permission to be human
• The energy-tracking hack that helped me find my best livestreaming times (hint: it’s not what the “gurus” say)
