As you're probably well aware, we're living in an incredibly challenging time in history. For most of us, life is pretty hard right now! And yet, as you'll hear on this episode, I recently decided to make things even harder on myself by starting a new challenge called (I can't make this up) 75 Hard. It didn't last, but along the way I learned some important lessons about the ways that we often inadvertently choose to make our lives harder than they need to be because of outdated scripts & ideas about how we "should" be living or doing business. 

In this episode, I share my new motto – 75 Easy! – and how it has been inspiring me to make better decisions for myself. I also discuss how we desperately need to break up with the idea that harder things are always more worthwhile, and give you a few questions to ask yourself if you're coming up against a hard problem or phase of life.

It was such a joy to speak with my friend & fellow business owner Julia Nethersole of Glass Full for this episode. We cover a lot of ground in our conversation: what it means to truly practice both self and community care, how we can start to curate our attention more intentionally, being present in our own lives, and why we need to give ourselves (and our businesses!) permission to change. 

Julia also shares some of her favourite self-care activities, her noticing practices, and the next steps she's taking to build ritual and celebration into the fabric of Glass Full. It's a wonderful exploration of what it means to build a business in alignment with your values and strengths, and what it looks like to have a community that you both support and are supported by on a daily basis. 

I think Julia is an incredibly special person, and I'm excited for you to get to know her better too.

If you have a love/hate relationship with social media, you're not alone. Over the past few years, I've been finding myself less interested and more overwhelmed by apps like Instagram and TikTok, and feeling a pull towards slower platforms, like podcasting, blogging, and YouTube. 

In this episode, I'm talking about some things to consider when it comes to where you're putting your marketing energy, offering you reassurance that you don't have to take part in any platform (or feature!) that you don't want to, and giving you some of my top tips if you want to build a business outside of the world of social media. I'm figuring this out right alongside you, but I hope that some of these ideas can support you in making a more empowered decision about where to spend your time.

Welcome to Slowpreneur, my new podcast about slow & steady entrepreneurship for thoughtful, values-based business owners. On this first episode of the show, I'm explaining why I'm starting a new podcast now, and letting you know what you can expect from future episodes of the show. Tune in to hear my real thoughts on the business coaching industry, why slowness is an antidote to so much of the toxicity in our culture, and what I actually mean when I say "slow". 

I hope that this podcast feels like a soft place to land for you as an entrepreneur, and helps you feel less alone as you build a business according to your values.
