#68 Creatively Navigating Storms: Managing Small Business Stress

Saskia talks about how having systems, plans, and a calendar in place can help you deal with unexpected situations. She explains how she uses Notion to organise her podcasting process and assigns tasks to her team members. Saskia also emphasises the importance of being in the moment and staying calm when things don't go according to plan. She shares her experience of dealing with difficult situations in her yarn shop and turning them into learning opportunities. Saskia also talks about the benefits of investing in tools and systems that work for you and your business. She encourages listeners to reflect on how they handle crises and to build their own set of plans and systems that work for them.
