✨What questions should I be asking myself to unearth who my ideal VA even is?

✨ If I start outsourcing, what should I outsource first? My editing, culling, admin tasks? Ahh i need help with it all!

✨ I heard Sara mention that the way she teaches outsourcing is very affordable. Is that true?

✨ How did you know it was the right time for you to start learning how to outsource?

✨ What’s your favourite part about getting your time back through outsourcing?

✨ I feel like I’m drowning right now. I can’t even fathom adding another thing to my to do list, let alone a course, should I wait to sign up next year when hopefully I’ll have my ducks in a row then?

78: How To Have the Work/Life Harmony You Desire As a Portrait + Wedding Photographer

Monday, October 4, 2021 • Duration 26:00

At the start of the year, you get all excited to finally start shooting again, and for the opportunity to get creative. You really believe that this year will be different than the last. Meaning, you won't get overworked and burnt out because you feel like you are more organized than you were last year and you made a promise to yourself that your health and life is a priority and that burnout is no longer welcome in your life.

Then, you somehow find yourself in the final 2 or 3 months of the season, backlogged with editing work, culling, and emails flooding in that make you feel more overwhelmed and even sometimes resentful of your clients. You can't seem to catch up even though you are working every single day for 12-15 hours. Sound familiar? Tune into this episode right now to learn how YOU can avoid burnout all year round to have the quality of life you desire!
