Finding Work-Life Balance as a Creative Entrepreneur with Val Marlene


Listen Later

Hi Sunshine!!!☀️ Welcome back. This week we are joined by the incredible Val Marlene. Val is a former wedding photographer turned financial coach for women creative entrepreneurs. She helps these entrepreneurs take control of their money and time to create a balanced and successful life.

In this episode, Rachel and Val discuss the work-life balance challenges for entrepreneurs. They emphasize the importance of setting boundaries, defining priorities, and valuing one's own time. They also discuss the addictive nature of entrepreneurship and how to break free from the constant need to work. Val shares strategies for protecting oneself from burnout and overbooking during busy seasons. The episode concludes with a reminder to take responsibility for one's time and give oneself grace.

 

In this episode, you will learn:

  • Work-life balance is about prioritizing and valuing your time based on personal values and goals.
  • The to-do list will never be done, so it's essential to be comfortable with the unfinished and in-progress tasks.
  • Planning time off in advance and having booking limits can prevent overbooking and burnout.
