#9 What are the lessons I learned from running a mentoring and writing business in 2022? | Solo Episode

A solo episode of Hiding Under the Desk where I unpack what I learned from 2022 with my mentoring and writing business.

A couple of weeks ago I made the sad decision to stop running The Confident Creative Club. I talk about the reasons behind it and what I hadn’t taken into consideration when starting the Club.

I also share how I constantly worry about running out of time and how I don’t value investing time in the marketing of my work.

So much to unpack in this episode. The good, the bad and the ugly. I am slowly coming out of burnout and this episode is my attempt to process what has happened to me over the last three months.

I would love to hear about what lessons you learned during 2022. If you’ve written about it or created a video or podcast please feel free to share the link in the comments.

I mentioned the book: Burnt Out by Selina Barker*.
