New Ditch the Hustle Podcast & Art of Creative Living Retreat Updates
And while there absolutely are times to be (intentionally) busy, and to hustle (with self-kindness and heart), we wanted to share a different perspective, our personal take if you will, on what might happen if we flip ‘success’ on its head.
So in these intimate and unscripted conversations, we explore what it looks like to be focused on building businesses in line with our values and following our hearts, rather than following another 7 step plan or blueprint (where your own needs, values and self-care often take a back-seat).
So if you’re looking for something to listen to that will inspire you to think differently about our culture’s definition of success (in fact we have a whole episode coming up that’s dedicated to defining success on your own terms!) and take practical steps to be kind to yourself amidst your work life or day-to-day practicalities of running a business, then tune in and join us for season one.
It’s a good one (if I do say so myself! 🙂 )

Gaslighting & Hustle Culture with Staci Jordan Shelton

The Gentle Work Week
Naomi, Amanda and I all share what a gentle work week looks and feels like for us. This is a juicy conversation about rhythms and cycles, tips and tools, and paying attention to what’s working (and what’s not!) over time.
