Practising what I preach, I've had over a month off from podcasting.We were dealing with broken bones (go back to episode 23 for more info) and some random illness that had me bed ridden for a week before Easter 2021.
My mind was still switched on that week, it was my body that was shut down, so I did a lot of reflecting and assessing. My capabilities, my health, my business in general.The outcome: Productivity! with Hollie is going seasonal.
I've loved putting out weekly episodes for you but no matter how organised I am, it hasn't been smooth sailing behind closed doors. My health and my family come first.
But, this also means that I can spend the next four to five months recording 26 new solo and guest episodes for you! They'll be dropping on Tuesday 5 October at 9am AEDT.
Get your last (fresh) episode of Productivity! with Hollie now, and I'll see you again in October!

Annabel Crabb, in her book The Wife Drought, poignantly said: "The obligation for working mothers is a very precise one: the feeling that one ought to work as if one did not have children, while raising one's children as if one did not have a job."
Why is it that women can't have both a career and be a mother?
