Decided to wrap up my take on this subject of 'giv

Decided to wrap up my take on this subject of 'giving up' with this blog post to lay out what I think about giving up and how it relates to productivity.

It's true that often when we want to give up what we actually need is some rest so we can think clearly about what it is we do want without the cloud of stress and overwhelm altering how we feel.

But after that when we can see a little clearer and have gotten to grips with what we want we might then need to muster up the courage to let go which depending on what we're giving up can be easier said than done!

If you enjoyed my reel, listened to Monday's podcast episode on when it's ok to give up and/or have something that's been weighing on your mind that you want to let go of go and have a read of this blog post - link in my bio ⬆️

P.s. would love to hear more of your stories about giving up so share away 👇🏼

Today on the podcast I’m talking all about when

Today on the podcast I’m talking all about when it’s ok to GIVE UP! Giving up is something that we often perceive as negative but in my opinion giving up on the right things - things that don’t bring you happiness or serve you - frees up the time space and energy for the more important things you could be doing and pursuing 🙌🏼 so we’re not giving up we’re letting go of the things that we don’t need to do

Giving up - or rather letting go - of certain things has been a key part in me building a life around creativity and productivity that I can enjoy. We often hold onto things for a lot longer than we should because there’s a lot that can hold us back from letting go - listen to the podcast to find out why

Anyway here’s a picture of me after I gave up on something pretty big. You never know what giving up the right stuff might lead to 😉

Whats something you’ve let go of that led to bigger better things?

If you didn't spot it yesterday there was a new ep

If you didn't spot it yesterday there was a new episode of the Creative Productive Podcast - an interview with @saracollinsuk from @sisterandkin

We talked all about the process behind big projects as Sara has recently launched her collection the Maia dress - a gorgeous dress made with hand woven cotton by seamstresses from India. Sara is an expert in ethical manufacturing but it’s an industry that can be slower and tricker so patience and the ability to enjoy the process is key 🔑

If you have a big project you’re working on and want to feel inspired by Sara have a listen 🎧 link in bio 👆🏼

Last week I worked on my business for 2 days and I

Last week I worked on my business for 2 days and I...
- went rollerskating 3 times
- did 2 online yoga classes
- went for 3 evening strolls
- got out on my paddleboard on a sunny afternoon
- went for a morning at the charity shops and had some amazing finds
- had time for cooking and made myself a lovely salad
And worked 3 full days at the hospital(!)

It was a pretty amazing week however NOT every week is like this. I don’t always have the energy let’s thank the sun for this new found energy and sometimes the business is a lot busier but another really big factor in me being able to do all this stuff is that I’m currently really in control of my time and tasks because I’ve planned all the things that I HAVE to do. I don’t have to think about when I’m going to do those things because I can check in with my plan and I know. Which frees up a ridiculous amount of time for you to fill up your life with all those other fun things that you can enjoy 🙌🏼

What would you do if you had more time freed up to do the things you enjoy?

Happy Saturday pals 🙌🏼 I’m still thinking

Happy Saturday pals 🙌🏼
I’m still thinking about this beginner mindset stuff (have you listened to the podcast yet? 👀) and I want to ask YOU a question...

If you could do anything without going through that messy beginner stage - what would it be?

And then another question - do you think you’d appreciate your skill as much without having struggled at the beginning? 🧐

Tomorrow the Creative Productive Podcast is BACK b

Tomorrow the Creative Productive Podcast is BACK bby with two solo episodes from me (yes if you were following along on Friday you'll know it was touch and go) The first of those 2 episodes is all about 5 things I've learned about the mentoring process.

In case you haven't noticed I've been transitioning my business to focus on one:one mentoring but for those who haven't been through the process (and perhaps those who have) there are certain things that you need to be aware fo when embarking on a mentoring programme.

The first of the 2 episodes coming tomorrow focusses on what you might not be aware of in terms of the mentoring process and some things you need to consider before you sign up with a mentor!

Have you experienced mentoring in the past? Either as mentor or mentee? What was your experience?

P.s. I’ll be taking on new one:one clients very soon 🤫

Happy Monday 🙌🏼 this week my plan of action

Happy Monday 🙌🏼 this week my plan of action and main focus is to get season 2 of the Creative Productive podcast all ready to release next week 🥳

There will be 2 solo episodes released next Wednesday to kick of the new series then some fabulous guest interviews coming up!

One of those first episodes will focus on the ‘mentoring experience’ so I’d love to know if there are any questions you have about the process or if you’ve been mentored anything you’d like me to discuss that you think is important for people to know! You can drop me a Dm or comment below ⬇️
