Description

We get asked a lot how we're able to drop three podcasts a week while running our business and giving our best to our families. There's seriously only solution, and it's batching. Other than batching gifts, we had never heard that term until a couple years ago when we started recognizing the parallels between entrepreneurs and nonprofits, and it is game-changing to staying focused and doing a lot in a short amount of time. Feeling overwhelmed? Overburdened? Whether it's professionally or personally, these simple little life hacks will help you "work in focus." Are you really multitasking or are you just frantically moving back and forth between projects? We're here to help, and naturally, we'll keep it light too.Episode HighlightsWhat is batching?
