How to Remove Summer Stress

233: How to Remove Summer Stress

Every year around this time when my kids were young, I would be thinking about how we would handle our summer plans. Which camps were they going to and when? How could I have a more relaxed schedule at work while moving projects along but also being mom? Maybe you don’t have kids, but do want a more relaxed summer schedule – no matter what, listen in to this episode originally recorded in 2019. The lessons in time management and project expectations still apply.

Topics Mentioned:

• Delegation

• Fractional Support

• Systems

Thoughts from Michele:

• Our industry is heavily saturated with women.

• We cannot do it all at the same time.  Something has to give.

• You have to be upfront with your clients with what your summer plans are.

• We have to have realistic expectations.

• We do not want to make a decision in a vacuum.

• There are always trade-offs with whatever decision you make.

• Try to be as creative as you can.

• You do not have to do it the way I did it.  Do what works for you.

• Anytime you stop marketing your business, it can take us 3 to 6 months to gain back your footing.

• Make a plan based on choices and decisions.

• Commit to the plan.  Work the plan.
