How to Prioritize your Mental Health as an Entrepreneur, 9-5preneur, Content Creator, or Corporate 9-5 Leader

Disclaimer: While the tools shared in this episode are for educational purposes, this episode should not be used as a substitute for prioritizing your own mental health journey. These techniques are broad for the sake of our audience, and it is essential to gain the personal, specific help you need. If you are experiencing suicidal thoughts, please call the National Suicide Hotline at 1-800-273-8255.

In this episode of My Rough Draft Podcast, we are talking with licensed associate professional counselor, Victoria Glover, on how to prioritize your mental health as an entrepreneur, content creator, influencer, creative or working professional!   

Building your brand and business can often come with stress, fear, anxiety, and imposter syndrome. But the fear, anxiety, and depression you're experiencing can also be a symptom of unresolved trauma. Today Victoria and I talk about why entrepreneurs can be subject to more triggers and deal with more mental health issues. We also share practical tools, resources, and exercises to heal, learn your triggers, and prioritize your mental health on a daily basis!

3 reasons why a Business Plan  is not enough  PLUS what you need to include for your next LAUNCH

3 reasons why a Business Plan is not enough PLUS what you need to include for your next LAUNCH

Key takeaways

1- Business Plan doesn’t tell the WHY of your business. You have to incorporate your story using a storytelling plan

2- Business plan doesn’t tell you HOW the work will actually get done. 

3 - Business plan doesn’t tell you the WHEN every activity needs to get done and HOW much it will cost.

So, what you need is a PROJECT PLAN. A project plan consists of outlining each task, each task's deadline, each task's responsible person, and each task's cost.

I do offer project management services that comes with a 30 minute complimentary consultation. For the last 5 years, I’ve been helping launch projects in the healthcare industry managing multi-million dollar projects, and I bring that same expertise to the everyday 9-5 or solopreneurs.You don’t have to do this alone.

Having a project plan doesn’t just pertain to business, this can also be used for those who are transitioning to a new career, and you need a detailed plan and timeline of when you want to  apply to schools and jobs, when you need to reach out to certain people, when you need to focus on networking, etc. 

So, let me connect the dots for your next launch!

TIME STAMPS & KEY NOTES

3:20 //  Episode Start

5:54 // I know that I’m not going to get everything done today, but I’m going to do what I can with the grace I have for today.

Read Hebrews 4 

10:30 // ONE // Step back & understand the bigger picture. God’s view of you goes far beyond what you do. 

18:15 // TWO // God can do more than less because when His hand is on it, it’s on IT.

22:04 // THREE // Raise your Expectations and Standards 

25:02 // FOUR // Raise the level of Quality

27:26 // FIVE // Relax your timeline

30:20 // SIX // Realign to God's will through prayer and fasting

FINAL AFFIRMATION //  I understand that God is my Source. He has everything planned and worked out in His timing. Because He lives in me, I can work in rest and confidence knowing I’m being led through my gifts and talents. Everything can’t happen in on day. But, I won’t take for granted the importance to be faithful with each day. I won’t lose sight of what really matters today.

Keep it Simple | How I Simplify my Goals, Tools, and Ideas for my Work and Business

Keep it Simple | How I Simplify my Goals, Tools, and Ideas for my Work and Business

Takeaways from today's episodes:

The way to growth is simplification. 

- I simplified my overall goal in my work and business by reconnecting with my OVERALL WHY in life.

- I simplified my tools and methods in my work+ business by….eliminating unnecessary subscriptions, simplifying my apps, making smart investments, and focusing on consistency vs growth. 

 

- I simplified my tools and methods in my work + business by investing smart. This takes honest evaluation. The right investment at the wrong time is still a bad investment. Get clear on your vision so that you can get clear on what you actually need, and pray for discernment.

- Focus on consistency vs growth. If people’s affirmations determine your work ethic, you will never be stable in any plan God has for you. We allow THEM to control what’s supposed to be dedicated to HIM.

- Give yourself a timeline of consistency before you start something new or invest. What’s one small way you can invest your time and what you currently have to build momentum?

- I simplified my IDEAS by doing an honest evaluation of my time and resources to set realistic expectations.

- I simplified my IDEAS by limiting my knowledge intake and focusing more on my  application output.

 

- I simplified my IDEAS by sticking to what God tells me to say.

Top Faith and Purpose Lessons I've Learned over the Past Decade
Nov 25, 201932:49
Top 10 Career & Business Lessons I've Learned over the Past Decade

Top 10 Career & Business Lessons I've Learned over the Past Decade

For the last series of the year, we are talking about lessons we've learned over the past decade!

Many times in the day to day circumstances, we may feel like we're not getting anywhere, but from God's perspective, we've come so far!

Today's Takeaways

Career Development

1. Job searching takes time and intentionality. Don't half way apply to anything, but follow up on everything. Tailor your resume and cover letter to the specific job.

2. Instead of just applying on the larger job sites,  take the time to find companies within your field, and get as close to the inside as you can.

3. When interviewing, come with specific questions tailored to how your role plays into the larger company vision. Show that you're committed to the future of the company.

4. Don't allow work relationships to keep you from your bigger professional goals. Remain neutral, and don't engage with drama or allow workplace friendships to keep you stuck.

5. Make people remember you. Go the extra mile with every connection you make. Send thank you letters, send follow up emails, and go the extra mile when working with other departments.

6. Keep a work journal and QUANTIFY everything. Assess the current state of the role and your department before you arrived. Then, document the success (using specific data) you bring to the team and department.

BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT

7. Build the proper policies, systems, and routines up front. Organization is the key to consistency.

8. Allow the big picture to inspire you, but don't allow the vision to deter you from starting small.

9. Use ready-made tools and templates if possible when starting out. Invest SMART.

10. You CAN DO BOTH. Stretch yourself.

It's time to go deeper spiritually. We have to allow our rough draft to begin being edited. We have to allow Him to do the INNER WORK instead keeping up w/ OUTER APPEARANCES. God is GOD. We can’t manipulate Him into getting our way. Man looks on the outside, but God looks at the heart.
