Kleidi Jeen: [00:00:00] Hey, if you're feeling like your creative biz is running you instead of the other way around, I need you to hear me right now. It does not have to be that way. You found your way to the Sundae Creative where we're throwing outdated hustle culture into the trash and giving creative entrepreneurs the self care strategies they actually need to thrive.
I'm Kleidi Jeen, Creative Wellness Strategist and your fellow creative entrepreneur and your go to for making sure your business doesn't burn you out before you get to even enjoy your success. I am talking real deal self care, okay?
The kind where we're about balancing big, bold, creative dreams with the energy and well being to sustain them. Because the real flex is a thriving business and a thriving you. So, go ahead and grab your matcha, get comfy, and let's get into it.
You started that creative biz of [00:01:00] yours because you love what you do.
Expressing your quirky creativity makes your tummy tingle. I know it does that for me. But somewhere between the deadlines and the client work and the 17 tabs open in your brain, not to mention the 131 taps open on your phone. The part where you actually enjoy it. Where is that? It gets lost in the thick of the caramel sauce of your biz.
So, if that sounds a little too real, hey, you are exactly who I made this podcast for. The self care talk online is all take a break, drink water, schedule that white space into your calendar. But when you're building a creative business, you need strategies that actually fit your life and your work and those big ass goals of yours.
And let's be real, if it was just about the advice of "just rest", if that was enough, you wouldn't be here right now. Okay, this podcast is about [00:02:00] making self care actually work for you and in a way that doesn't feel like yet another thing to do because you don't have time or energy for that.
Here on Sundae Creative, you can expect bite sized, straight to the point episodes hitting the ether every Tuesday. No fluffy foolishness. Okay, no guilt tripping. I am just giving you real strategies to actually help you build a business that doesn't drain you. Oh, and you know we're gonna make it fun.
Okay, Sundae Creative, ice cream, sprinkles on top. Like, let's get into this. Because self care should actually feel good. It shouldn't feel like just another thing on your plate. So here are a few episodes that are coming up. Let me give you a sneak peek. So the next episode, episode two is all about the launch hustle and how it's killing your creativity and what to do instead.
Episode three, you didn't start your business to feel like this. So let's get into that in episode three and on episode four, [00:03:00] how to know if your business model is draining you before it's too late. We'll get into that in an episode five. We're going to talk about that invisible work, the work behind the scenes.
That's actually holding you back from thriving. This is something that I have dealt with over the last, I would say year and a half. So I am really going to get into it on episode five. And to make things fun, remember, we talked about fun after episode five, you're going to be able to take a little quick quiz to make sure that you're picking up what I'm putting down.
Okay. And when you pass the quiz, if you pass it, you get a free gift. So let's go ahead and inject the fun right away.
