Episode 131: How Do You Grow a Business When Your Schedule Is Crazy?
I love getting emails from listeners! Some of my favorite questions come to me in this way, and today’s episode was inspired by this email:
Sarah, I love your energy … but I don’t have it. LOL How in the world do you grow your business when your schedule is absolutely crazy?
I’ll be honest: I laughed out loud when I read that — both because of my own self-recognition (I feel like I ask this question, too — every week) and because it’s so general and vague and “OH MY GOD!” all rolled into one.
Truth is our schedules are insane. If we actually sit back and look at how much we do on a daily basis, it can make your head spin.
But growing your business is critical, too. We know that, and that’s why you’re here, checking out this podcast episode.
So, in this week’s episode, I give you 3 essential tips for kicking some assets, even when you feel like your life is insane:
- Check out the book “The ONE Thing” by Gary Keller. You can snag it here on Amazon.
- Do a time audit. I know — I just felt you roll your eyes (it’s amazing how I know that, right? Spooky.). Are these annoying? Totally. Are they incredibly useful? YES! 100%. I can’t say it enough.
- Challenge your inner rules. They’re all made up. Yes, even that one you just thought of. It might sound something like “I can’t sit down to work until the dishes are done!” Um … really? Like what will happen? Do you lose limbs? Eyeballs pop out of your head? What? It’s made up. Yes you can.
- Go get your blood work done. Yep. You read that right, and yes this is a business podcast. We’re big bags of chemicals. If those chemicals are off, you don’t work right. So just go do it. Book the appointment. You’re welcome.

Sarah Uncut:
Listen, life IS insane a lot of the time — you’re not wrong. But there’s no reason we can’t embrace the crazy and still create a successful business at the same time.
So pop in those earphones, and let’s get to it.
