The Sky Won't Fall In If You Take A Break

from The Platespinning Academy Podcast · host Nic Davies

After what was only supposed to be a weeks break, the Platespinning Academy Podcast is back after eight months.This raw and humble episode shows the reality of living life after burnout and simply not being able to spin all of the plates, no matter how badly you want to make things work.I discuss outsourcing and the gap between desperately needing to do it, but not quite having the finances being a muddy middle ground that a lot of business owners find themselves stuck in, and being able to break through with just one area of outsourcing can then start to release some pressure and headspace for other things. Think of life and business as a whole machine system which is jammed and unproductive, and we just need to work on getting that one part cleared and moving again for the rest of it to kick back into flow.When consistency is difficult for whatever reason, we can often burden ourselves with feelings of guilt and shame. Feeling like we've failed which then compounds all the other emotions around not seeing the projects through that we've initially put our heart and soul into.When everything we do is stripped back to its bare parts, our health and wellbeing is priority. Always. We can pick things back up again when we're ready, and it's also okay to set them down again if needed.About Nic:I'm Nic Davies, The Mental Load Mentor. I help business owners get life organised at home, so they can reclaim their headspace, time and energy needed to grow and run a successful business.I've navigated through adverse times with hard-hitting curveballs that have forced me to re-assess the importance of self-care and having firm boundaries in place, as well as becoming more organised in the day-to-day running of home, business, and life in general. My mission is to make sure that everyone has an equal opportunity to create a business they love, without feeling held back by household obligations, or adversity. Drawing upon a diverse range of life experience, I'm building an online community that supports anyone who is struggling to balance home life and business together.
