Caring for Yourself While Pivoting Your Business with Brandie Mitchell, RN [BONUS: ASK THE EXPERT]: You started out with one business model, but for one reason or another, you’ve had to make a shift. Maybe you’re adding a new service, or maybe you’re pivoting in an entirely different direction. Either way, transition is a challenge, and you need to make sure you’re giving yourself extra love to get it all done. In this bonus episode of Ask the Expert, Leah interviews Brandie Mitchell, RN about her experience of pursuing a career and field she never thought she would see herself in - nurse coaching. She talks about what it has been like with pivoting her business to support her clients better in a more of a coaching capacity, as what was once a majority of her business with massage therapy has been put on hold. She breaks down for us some of the simplest ways to get back to the basics with our self-care. We almost couldn’t even believe how accessible she makes it feel for all of us! by Lactation Business Coaching with Annie and Leah

Rebroadcast | Life Hacks for #IBCLCLIFE: For IBCLCs, being able to do things faster and with less stress translates to a better job done. That’s why we’ve dedicated this entire episode to discussing life hacks designed to introduce more ease into your private practice. Through our time building and growing our private practices, we’ve identified a number of areas where we’ve been slowed down, distracted, disrupted, or ignored our physical needs… but we’ve also come up with simple daily solutions that keep us on track and working at our best (many of which take under five minutes). As an IBCLC, there are several key aspects where life hacks shine—from taking care of your body to managing your business logistics to nurturing your emotional and spiritual needs, there are small, powerful ways to get around the overwhelm while still making sure you tick off everything on your To-Do list. “I always like a good hack. As a busy mom and a business owner, hacks are where it’s at.” In this by Lactation Business Coaching with Annie and Leah

EP58 | The pressure to do it all: Why do we feel the pressure to do it all? You hear the word hustle a lot in the entrepreneur space. But does the hustle actually help us as private practice lactation consultants? In this episode, we’re talking about the messages about hustle we’re hearing from business gurus and on social media and whether they’re helpful for having a healthy and thriving private practice. (Spoiler alert: we think naps might help us reach our goals, too.) “Let's not think about buying into some dream of a future that may never come true but how can I scale what I'm doing or manage what I'm doing right now so that I am building in that intentional rest because I only have right now. I don't have that future I just have right now.” by Lactation Business Coaching with Annie and Leah

64 | Nurture Sustainability: You want your private practice to be sustainable but where do you begin? We want to let you in on a little secret, nurturing your business is actually not just about your business. It’s also about nurturing yourself. You have to pour into yourself because behind the business is a person. As a lactation consultant, you've been called to do something amazing in the world, and being able to come at that from a place of wholeness and strength, only happens when you take care of yourself first. “We are not just businesses we’re people.” In this episode, we will cover: The importance of nurturing not only your business but also yourself (3:38) How to start building that sustainable foundation in your business (8:47) The reason you need to take care of your future self now (12:00) The power of making connections (14:14) If you like what you heard today, please check out our Lactation Business Coaching Deeper Dive Memberships: https://learn.anniefrisbie.com/l by Lactation Business Coaching with Annie and Leah
