Where to Find TahJah

#527 In this episode of the podcast, I chat with TahJah Harmony, an inspiring photographer who shares her perspective on managing connectivity and avoiding burnout. TahJah shares her invaluable insights on setting boundaries, balancing hustle initially, establishing business hours, and the significance of rest.

THE BIG IDEAS

• Set Boundaries: Clearly defined business hours help maintain healthy relationships and provide time to recharge.
• Embrace Hustle, but Balance: An initial hustle mindset is beneficial, yet balance is crucial for long-term sustainability.
• Identify Rest: Discover meaningful ways to rest that truly relax you and prevent burnout.
• Turn Off Notifications: Reducing distractions increases focus and time management, leading to more productive and creative sessions.

PHOTOGRAPHY ACTION PLAN

1. Establish boundaries: Define specific business hours for client communications and stick to them. Inform your clients about your availability to manage expectations.
2. Plan for Creative Rests: Schedule regular breaks during your day to step away from work. Choose relaxing activities, like gardening or coffee brewing, to disconnect and recharge.
3. Manage Notifications: Turn off non-essential notifications on your phone. Use dedicated work times where communication is limited to family or essential contacts.
4. Evaluate Your Tasks: Conduct an audit of all tasks related to your photography business. Use note cards to identify and outsource less enjoyable tasks, focusing on those that spark creativity.
5. Pursue Non-Commercial Hobbies: Identify hobbies unrelated to photography and engage in them regularly. Protect these hobbies from becoming side businesses, allowing them to remain sources of inspiration and relaxation.
