E69: Planning Ahead and feeling at peace in 2026

Send us your feedbackAre you craving more calm and clarity in your creative business? In this intimate solo episode, Delores invites you into her studio as she maps out the entire year of 2026—and discovers that planning ahead can feel like freedom. With a mug of coffee and her iPad, she reflects on the lessons she’s learned from last year, the rhythm her programs now have, and how a clear roadmap brings breathing space for art, rest and family. Delores shares why batching content, building a cadence for her offers (Bloom & Repeat, 5‑Card Challenges, Thrive Sessions and the Template Club), and setting aside time for art licensing and personal projects are giving her peace in the year ahead. She also opens up about leaving her agent, creating a new portfolio, and getting coaching through Ness’s Art Business Bootcamp to pitch her own art. Finally, she invites you to start small with your own planning—a free goal planner download is available in the show notes.Tune in to hear how planning ahead can calm the chaos and help you find joy in your creative process.👉 Listen now and support the show – your support keeps Creative Juggle Joy ad‑free and thriving!Support the show Don't miss an episode—subscribe to The Creative JuggleJoy Podcast!
