Summary
We talk a lot about business and building your own empire here on The CEO Teacher® podcast, but I want to talk to you about something that must happen in order to have a successful business- self-care. If self-care is something that you struggle to fit in, I urge you to make time for it. It isn't only important, but it is necessary. Burn-out doesn't get you to your destination faster. Doing all the things will not fast track your success. However, if you are intentional with your time and make self-care a priority, you could see your greatest success yet.
Today, my good friend Amy Mascott joins me to discuss self-care strategies and how she takes care of herself while running a successful business. Amy is an influencer, writer and speaker and the brains behind teachmama.com where she shares resources, strategies and tools for parents. Amy's work has been featured on dozens of online and print publications, including Scholastic Parents, PBS Parents, readwritethink.org, PBS Digital Studios as well as co-authoring two books: Setting the Stage for Rock-Star Readers: Help Young Children Develop a Lifelong Love of Reading (Scholastic, 2019) and Raising a Rock-Star Reader: 75 Quick Tips for Helping Your Child Develop A Lifelong Love of Reading (Scholastic, 2016).
Amy is the real deal and I couldn't think of anyone better to share with you how to make yourself a priority as an entrepreneur.
I hope you enjoy this one, Go-Getters, and I hope it encourages you to make time for yourself because YOU matter.
In this episode you will learn:
- What inspired Amy to start her business and how Teach Mama came to be
- How Amy practiced self-care as a working mom and created boundaries between work and home
- Self-care tips Amy practices in her life to be her personal best
- How investing in yourself can be one of the best forms of self-care
- How Amy uses Advancement Courses as a way to invest in herself professionally and personally
