Megan is in the hot seat today! We're talking all about the Passive Bundle that she put together this past January. She's opening up applications for contributors for the next round of the bundle and as we were discussing this together, we realized something. We've never talked about what it's like putting together a bundle like this. So today's episode is all about preparing and coordinating a bundle and how you might go about doing that for you own niche! Megan's going to be sharing her experiences and ideas, so if you've ever thought about offering a bundle, make sure to take a listen!

Today, we're going to discuss why it's important to make time for your mid-year review, what it might look like, and how to set goals for the remainder of your year.

Today we’re getting a bit personal on the podcast and we're talking about a topic that one of our listeners actually suggested: burnout in your business. When we received this message, it was definitely a gut punch to us both because that feeling is SO real. Whether you're three years into business or 10, burnout in business is no joke. Burnout as a business owner shows up in so many different ways. So, we wanted to sit down and have a really candid conversation about what burnout can look like and how to find joy in your business again.
