Welcome to The Productive Life Podcast with Megan Minns! This is a weekly podcast for entrepreneurs, small business owners, and side hustlers who want to be more productive in their business and personal life. We believe that you can create a business and personal life that not only co-exist but allow you to thrive and accomplish your goals. We believe that you can have a business without sacrificing your personal life, health, or happiness. Each week we’ll discuss productivity and time management so we can get the important work done on a daily basis; organization so that we can have an office, home, and digital space that brings calm to our day; wellness and self-care so that we can learn how to take care of ourselves, our mind, and our body while building a business; personal development so that we can keep learning and growing; and online business strategies, tips and tricks, lessons learned, and how other people run their business. We aren’t perfect but every day we make progress and move closer to our achieving our goals.

How To Create a Course In One Day ✨At the end of March I created and launched a brand new course in less than 26 hours. This wasn't a fluffy course either... it is a nitty gritty tech course!Oh and I stopped working at 5 PM, had a full night of sleep, and didn't start work any earlier than normal. In that time I outlined the course, recorded the videos, built it out in my membership site, created the sales page and checkout page, set up the enrollment and onboarding tech, sent out an email to my list, added it to my website, and rolled it out an affiliate program.While launching a course in a day isn't always necessary, I did a few things differently on purpose to get this live and in the world as quickly as possible!READ THE FULL BLOG POST ➡️https://meganminns.com/blog/create-a-courseLinks Mentioned:⭐️Simple Online Business Set Up™ meganminns.com/sob⭐️Find out more about our brand new, high-level group coaching program! https://meganminns.com/apply⭐️Free Training: Learn How to Work Less and Have More Fun! https://meganminns.com/trainingSubscribe to The Productive Life Podcast:

5 Mistakes Business Owners Make When Hiring
Are you scared to hire? ✨I love hiring.I have a formal background in hiring and team-building thanks to my Master's Degree in Organizational and Human Resource Development and 4 years of corporate Human Resources and Recruiting experience.I've been hiring contractors for my own business since 2016, helped my clients hire new contractors and employees for their online business. I've supported my entrepreneur friends through figuring out who they need to hire, how to find the best candidates, how to onboard their team members, and how to be better managers and leaders.I worked as the Chief Operating Officer for my friend Mariah Coz and helped her build out her team of full-time employees and now I coach my community and clients through hiring as well.What I've discovered is that it doesn't matter how successful your online business is... a lot of business owners still have the same fears and doubts when it comes to hiring.I did a guest training in Mariah Coz's Accelerator program recently and multiple successful course creators all used the same phrase when it came to hiring..."I am scared."While the source of their fear was different for each individual, they all felt fear around hiring.That's why I'm sharing how you can overcome your fear of hiring so you can overcome your fears around hiring in this episode of The Productive Life podcast!READ THE FULL BLOG POST ➡️ https://meganminns.com/blog/scared-to-hireLinks Mentioned:⭐️FREE TRAINING: How to Achieve Your Goals While Working Less and Having More Fun: https://meganminns.com/training⭐️Find out more about our brand new, high-level group coaching program! https://meganminns.com/apply⭐️ Check out Mariah Coz here! https://mariahcoz.com/⭐️ LIVE WORKSHOP SERIES WITH MEGAN MINNS: https://meganminns.lpages.co/pw-registration/Subscribe to The Productive Life Podcast:
How to Get Better Sleep ✨By nature, I am a night owl... which for me usually means that if I let myself, I will avoid going to sleep until I'm just physically too tired to put it off any longer. But when I stay up too late, I either oversleep or wake up on time and feel tired all day. And when I got diagnosed with adrenal fatigue in 2019, I was told to put getting higher quality sleep as a top priority in my life. That's exactly what I did! Prioritizing getting enough, high-quality sleep will help you feel more energized, be more productive, and stay healthy.
