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  Accidental Business Owner  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.   Contact Michele: Email: [email protected] Facebook: Scarlet Thread Consulting Instagram: @ScarletThreadATL Website: ScarletThreadConsulting.com LinkedIn: Michele Williams References and Resources: Work with Me Metrique Solutions Scarlet Thread Consulting PIAC EP. 05 - Shame - Listen Today Master Your Profit™ - Enroll Today The Designers' Inner Circle - Become a Member Today!
