What's Essential, Urgent, or Important as a Creative Business Owner? | 12 Weeks of Wintering Week 6

Welcome to Week 6 of 12 Weeks of Wintering! We're exploring Essentialism: the practice of ruthless prioritization and figuring out what truly matters most. Hear about my own struggle with trying to pack too much into my calendar — both personally and in my business — and the toll it took on my energy and sense of aliveness. You'll learn: Why creatives and business owners are particularly vulnerable to non-essentialism The difference between what's essential, important, and urgent How saying no can take you further than saying yes 12 Weeks of Wintering is a practice I'm sharing while I'm on parental leave. Each week offers a Wintering theme, with a minisode like this, an email companion, and reflection prompt so you can add some Being back into all your Doing. Join the free Wintering Club to add community and accountability to your being practice! You'll find: Access to a private Slack chat where you can respond to a prompt around each week's theme and connect with other creatives doing this work Monthly virtual meet-ups to unpack the practices, facilitated by Angie Lake (who'll be holding down the fort while I'm on leave) Think of this as a coaching practice you can take at your own pace. It's an invitation to reset and make time for the reflection and just being that you've been putting off. Join my email list and share this with others to get the rest of 12 Weeks of Wintering in your inbox, and to hear when I return from leave in the spring.
