Consistency doesn’t come from motivation, it comes from protected time and real boundaries.
I sit down with Ashley Tindall (Solution Integrators) after discovering her on a Dubsado webinar to break down CEO Days: what they are, why they matter, and how they help business owners (and podcasters) stay consistent without burning out.
Ashley defines a CEO Day as dedicated time where you don’t do client work—you focus on working on your business (or use it as a true “me day”)
For podcasters, Ashley maps out what a CEO Day can include: setting weekly non-negotiables like editing, pitching guests, writing emails, reviewing metrics, and catching up on backend tasks, without the pressure to do everything at once. She also talks boundaries, client communication, autoresponders, and why stepping away can actually help you show up better.
In this episode:
- A CEO Day is time protected from client work to focus on your business or your rest
- Pick 3–4 weekly non-negotiables for your podcast and treat the rest as bonus
- CEO time can be a full day, a half day, or split into a few focused hours
- Boundaries work best when set early and clearly (availability, autoresponders)
- Strong client experience must support the client and the business owner
