Episode 126: New Hustle-Free Plans After a Much Needed Break

"It's in challenging times, in dark times, we get to put whatever meaning we want on the experience, and the meaning I'm making out of it is that I'm meant to be here." - Kellee Wynne

Sometimes life challenges us in ways that we never could have prepared for. Kellee is back on the podcast after a much-needed pause, and a year of personal losses, health scares, and challenges that have had her questioning the "normalcy" of a daily scroll on Instagram, why we are so susceptible to burnout, and navigating business with personal life. 

Starting in June, Kellee took a hiatus from podcasting to recharge and focus on her well-being (and to enjoy her time with family for the summer!). Although it was challenging to step away, it was essential. Returning now, stronger and more focused, Kellee is so excited to share her journey with you and continue doing what she loves, which is showing up for others and helping guide them into a business that they make remarkable.

What Kellee Did to Combat Burnout:

• Removed social media apps from her phone 📱.

• Shifted focus towards creating long-form, impactful content.

• Spent quality time with her family—playing Pokémon GO, hiking, and enjoying her family's company.

Does social media frustrate you sometimes? Kellee now approaches social media sparingly, using it deliberately for her business which also brings more mindfulness into the business connections that she's creating, and what she is posting, and breaks the vicious cycle of tracking likes and comments as a performance tool for business. 

Want a break from social media? Try these quick tips to get started:

1. Delete social media apps from your phone.

2. Lean into your email list - people are signing up to engage with you, it's time to start a conversation!

3. Utilize social media intentionally; schedule time for interaction.

After this break, Kellee shares that the one thing that has never wavered in her business, is her drive and dedication to teaching you how to build a joyful business in your zone of genius and achieve your big audacious dreams. Kellee's Build It Remarkable program will open at the end of the year—so keep an eye out!

Remember, it's not just about working harder—it's about working smarter, with heart and purpose.
