First Time Facilitator The Free Time Facilitator: How you can lose the busywork, and love your business with Jenny Blake (Episode 201 #encore)
Welcome to an encore episode!
There is no one else I’d “open up” the podcast for, than the one and only, Jenny Blake.
I shared this interview with the Booked Out Facilitator group, and I think it’s the perfect conversation to share with you today, as we close off the year and look to scheme + dream what we work on in 2022.
This is the first interview Jenny has done to promote her fabulous (and much-needed) new book, Free Time: Lose the Busywork, Love your Business. It’s a playbook to free your mind, time, and team for your best work. It is an invitation to reimagine how you run your business.
I want to share an excerpt about her book, so you get a sense of what you’re in for in today’s chat:
“Your time is far more precious than money. It is your presence, your memories, your quality of life. For many, growth fuelled by added stress is not worth the tradeoff. You have an urge to simplify and streamline. Ask yourself: are you consistently doing the work that you and only you can do? If you are burdened by busywork, the bottleneck in the way of your company’s profit and potential, this book is for you."
In this conversation, we also talk about choosing your niche, and how to build a business without social media. Jenny also takes us behind the scenes and shares how she uses Notion to capture and curate her ideas.
After you listen, ask yourself this question: “What do you need a permission to do?”
