But I'm doing my best in each episode to bring you minute-by-minute things I do to help build what you see today. Not just the side pony, full of life, sometimes messy, but organized AF business owner and creative, but also the structure, loyalty and commitment I have between myself and my teams. I was recently talking about one of the last DJ events that I did. There was a DJ in our community that was getting married who I KNEW I could slay and he hired me for this wedding. I was given no direction other than we like, 90s, 2000s, freestyle, salsa and merengue. No reggaeton - you do you. And I'm thinking… well what if. The thing is… I can do 90s, 2000s, freestyle... On don't get me started on mep mep mep mep mep, but what if the event took a turn and got me too far into a subculture genre that I didn't know. So in this episode, we're talking about building your personal brand by understanding how to identify and know WHAT YOU DON'T KNOW. In This Episode We Discuss: How To Identify What You Don't Know Ask as many questions as you can Your position is important! Ayyye!

We are all creatives. It's imperative that we understand what stifles our creativity is what draws our clients to us to begin with. Being overwhelmed, high levels of stress and not having enough time for mindfulness are just a few things that stifle our creativity. One of the biggest mistakes I've made in crippling my ability to perform at peak levels is when I event managed, prepped, loaded in for and performed 4 weddings a weekend, 49+ weekends a year, I was not able to perform at the same level as if I did the same for 1 wedding. That being said, expenses are not flexible, so understanding the delicate balance of scheduling your priorities and life balance should be something you consider when setting the prices for your services and budgeting life for a thriving and successful creative. In this episode, we discuss the keys to avoiding burnout. 1. What leads to burnout 2. How to avoid burnout 3. What to do if you're already in burnout mode. ---------------- Follow Kristin Hubbard: IG: @meetkristin Twitter: @meetkristin Check out Kristin online at http://meet-kristin.com Check out Our DJ Rocks online at http://ourdjrocks.com Follow Our DJ Rocks: IG: @ourdjrocks

This is going to be ME running wild with my unchaperoned thoughts sharing one on one with you. ------------------------- Marcello Pedalino recently reminded me at this summer's Think Tank Symposium, if you want to change your life, change your environment.

And then funny thing is, one of my DJs wrote me a sweet note this summer, out of nowhere and she said” Kristin there is an african proverb that says to get lost is the find the way.” ------------------------- Follow Kristin Hubbard: IG: @meetkristin Twitter: @meetkristin Check out Kristin online at http://meet-kristin.com Check out Our DJ Rocks online at http://ourdjrocks.com Follow Our DJ Rocks: IG: @ourdjrocks

Summer was really important for me to take some time - to really reflect and refocus. It feels like I've spent the last 38 years of my life on the go and so in the seasons of growth and transition, I felt it was SO important to peel back as many layers as I could, to find the grassroots. And in that, hope to find a deeper purpose and clear guidance for direction. Here's the thing - I feel like so many people may say they need “time off” or time to reflect… but what are you doing with that time? So in the spirit of the season 3 launch… in a TRUE new season, I want to share with you what I did to reflect and refresh for the coming new season of my life. In this episode I talk about: How I was Productive yet Balanced this summer What we are doing to re-energize for the fall 2022 Business Season Kristin's Mindset Update And Super Fun Facts that might make you LOL!
