What are you avoiding?

In this episode, Stacey Morgan and Rhee Gold kick off the new year by tackling a topic every dance studio owner and teacher knows too well: procrastination. As studios return to full swing and workloads ramp up, Stacey and Rhee explore why we put important tasks off — especially the big ones that feel overwhelming or uncertain. They unpack how pressure can sometimes spark creativity, but also how constant delay leads to unnecessary stress. Together, they share practical tools to help studio owners move forward with confidence, including: Using a brain dump to clear mental clutter Separating personal and business tasks Prioritising what truly matters Breaking large projects into manageable action steps Creating better file systems and organisation habits Rewarding progress to build momentum They also discuss how leadership styles, preparation habits, and different working personalities impact productivity — and why perfectionism, self-doubt, and decision fatigue often sit at the heart of procrastination. Whether you’re avoiding your timetable, recital order, marketing plan, or newsletter, this episode offers encouragement and realistic strategies to help you stop putting things off and start moving forward.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
