Kathi Lipp is back with her favorite board member, Roger Lipp, to continue this month’s  series about establishing your own board of directors. Perhaps you have decided that you do need a board of directors after all – now what? Kathi and Roger are speaking from experience and sharing the lessons they have learned about how to build a better board and keep your business and ministry moving forward. Listen in as the two discuss:

• How to be wise in adding board members and setting expectations from the beginning.

• The benefits an advisory board brings to provide clarity and purpose in your planning, as well as helping you see the bigger picture.

• The importance of accountability in both preparing for meetings and following up on the decisions made at board meetings.

The right board will help you make plans for your business or ministry and weather the inevitable changes that will come.  If you are an author or speaker, or have plans to be, then setting up a board of advisors is something you don’t want to skip! Tune in here if you missed out on episode 1, and make sure you subscribe to the podcast so you catch episodes 3 and 4 over the next 2 weeks.

Kathi Lipp is here with her original partner, Roger Lipp, to kick off this month’s new series about establishing your own board of directors. Have you ever thought maybe your business or ministry isn’t far enough along for a board of directors? Maybe you’re thinking, “I haven’t even published a book yet, how could a board of directors help me? Who would I even ask to be on my board?” Kathi and Roger are here to answer all those questions and more. Listen in as the pair explains the different roles board members fill as well as talk about how putting together your board early in your business or ministry can help you:

• See the bigger picture
• Offer expertise in areas you may not have knowledge about
• Offer fresh voices about the industry

Whatever stage your business or ministry is in, whether or not you have published a book, a board of directors is essential. You won’t want to miss a single episode of this month’s series.

For this fifth week of August, we are bringing you a re-release of one of our best episodes! Kathi Lipp and Michele Cushatt get together to talk about practical tips for daily self-care for your creative self. Creative people have a unique set of circumstances for when, how, and where they work; and we need creative ways to recharge, rest, and take of our body and mind. Listen in as Michele and Kathi give six very specific, easy to do, daily tips that will fuel your creative soul including:

• Get plenty of sleep (spoiler – 6 hours isn’t enough)
• Eat a good diet (including water, water, water)
• Engage in brain-free activities

If you’re feeling a little blah about your creative output, but a day at the spa isn’t in the cards or the fancy candles aren’t doing the trick; this episode might be just what you need to get your pep back.

Kathi Lipp and Shannon Popkin are back for episode 3 of this 4-part series about comparison. Have you ever felt discouraged because someone has already written about the subject you are writing about? Why keep going if what you’re writing has already been covered? Kathi and Shannon are back talking about the importance of getting out of isolation and connecting with other writers. Others may be writing about the same subject, but they don’t have your voice, your experiences, or your perspective. Other authors may be further ahead of you, or not quite as far, but connecting with them can be a huge source of encouragement for both of you. Listen in as Kathi and Shannon talk about the importance of

• Community
• Humility
• Vulnerability

If you’ve missed any of this invaluable conversation, make sure you go back and listen to episode 1 and episode 2.
