1 Schedule it in

One of the simplest ways to make time for self-care is to treat it like any other appointment or task. Block out some time in your calendar for activities that nourish your body, mind, and soul. It could be a morning meditation, a lunchtime walk, a yoga class, or a relaxing bath. Whatever it is, make sure you stick to it and don't let anything else interfere. By scheduling your self-care, you're sending a message to yourself and others that it's important and non-negotiable.

Being a busy entrepreneur is like juggling flaming torches, but don't forget to catch some breath and douse those flames occasionally. Schedule self-care like it's a VIP client meeting – non-negotiable and essential. Treat breaks like power naps, not guilty pleasures. Your mind is a superhero cape, but even superheroes need downtime. Delegate tasks like you're assembling a dream team; it's not admitting defeat, it's strategic victory. Finally, set boundaries – think of your time as a limited edition, not a clearance sale. Balance is the entrepreneur's secret potion; sip it wisely, and you'll be conquering the business world with a well-rested grin.

I agree on this. There is a notion of "Oh! I don't have time." But that's not true. There is time. One needs to just slow down his/her pace of routine and they'll just be able to figure out time for one's self care.

I wrote a 4-page whitepaper around this exact topic - if you want it, drop me a DM. Don't want it, but curious about the takeaways? The one takeaway for most ppl who read it is the following: Timeblocking. Google it :)

2 Delegate or outsource

Another way to free up some time for self-care is to delegate or outsource some of the tasks that are consuming your energy and attention. As a podcaster, you may be tempted to do everything yourself, from planning, recording, editing, marketing, and managing your podcast. However, this can quickly lead to burnout and overwhelm. Consider hiring a virtual assistant, an editor, a producer, or a marketer to help you with some of the aspects of your podcast. This will allow you to focus on your strengths and passions, and have more time for yourself.

I've found that even though I might be able to handle all aspects of my podcast, I really shouldn't do it all myself. An independent podcast entrepreneur can improve the delegation of responsibilities by clearly defining roles, choosing the right people (most importantly!), creating a trusting environment, providing resources, tracking progress, giving feedback, and gradually increasing the complexity of delegation while constantly learning and refining the process. I'm really fortunate to have found production team members that I'm learning to rely on more. ??

3 Set boundaries

A third way to make time for self-care is to set boundaries with yourself and others. As a podcaster, you may feel pressured to produce more content, respond to every comment, and be available 24/7. However, this can take a toll on your mental and emotional health. You need to set limits on how much time and energy you devote to your podcast, and communicate them clearly to your audience, guests, sponsors, and collaborators. For example, you can decide how often you publish episodes, how long they are, when you check your email, and when you take breaks. By setting boundaries, you're creating space for yourself and respecting your needs.

4 Join a community

A fourth way to make time for self-care is to join a community of like-minded podcasters who can support you, inspire you, and motivate you. Podcasting can be a lonely and isolating endeavor, especially if you're working from home or doing it solo. You may feel disconnected from others who understand your challenges and goals. That's why you need to find a community of podcasters who can offer you advice, feedback, encouragement, and friendship. You can join online forums, groups, or networks, or attend events, workshops, or meetups. By joining a community, you're expanding your network and enriching your experience.

In today's time and age, networking really does help. Not only on a personal level but a professional level as well. It helps to build networks of people that can really help an individual grow in terms of self development and the development of one's career

5 Learn from a mentor

A fifth way to make time for self-care is to learn from a mentor who can guide you, teach you, and challenge you. Podcasting can be a steep and complex learning curve, especially if you're new to it or want to grow your audience and income. You may feel frustrated, confused, or stuck at some point. That's why you need to find a mentor who can help you overcome your obstacles, improve your skills, and achieve your goals. You can look for a mentor who has a successful podcast in your niche, or join a coaching or mentoring program. By learning from a mentor, you're investing in your development and potential.

You're a busy entrepreneur, but you don't have to sacrifice your self-care for your podcast. By following these tips, you can make time for yourself and enjoy the benefits of podcasting without compromising your well-being.

Hiring a mentor who not only practices self-care but has the expertise to guide others is crucial. Not everyone who does knows how to guide others. Just as not everyone who guides, teaches, or preaches actually does what they tell others to do. If your potential mentors have platforms such as their own podcast, listen to their show episodes by choosing a few at the beginning, middle, and most recent to hear/see their growth. You’ll also learn gems, perhaps organically as they become vulnerable, some of the tools they are using that you can glean from. However, I wouldn’t rely on that to replace getting guidance for your specific growth needs. -With love ??????
