Bill and Miles explore the discomfort and chaos that comes with growth and stepping out of your comfort zone. We crave control and predictability, but the path to true stability come from walking into the unknown with eyes wide open. Chaos, uncertainty, and the unknown are only “bad” when you make them bad. Instead, these can become your lifelong friends. But it's not easy. Let's get into it.

Why We Seek, Even When The Answer Is Right In Front of Us (and what to do instead). Many of us are addiction to overcomplication. We subconsciously obsess over finding new answers to the same old problems. We're addicted to guidance but suck at remembering what we're taught. Your brain has huge blind spots. Information is addicting (especially today with all the “learn how to make every person stop scrolling” tactics out there). But information is worthless unless retained, organized, and integrated. 95%+ of info is worthless to you at the moment you're consuming it, but it will make you feel like it's the only thing that matters. This is why coaches and online programs can make millions selling the most obvious information ever. We crave new information or information organized in a new way, or told to us by someone new. Your brain is hackable and these people are great at hacking it to make money. But at the end of the day, it's no ones fault but yours. We have to protect out attention and energy at all costs. Ultimately, breaking free from the seeking cycle, like anything, requires a gradual shift in mindset and habits. By taking ownership of your actions and committing to consistent effort, you can move beyond the cycle of seeking and start making meaningful progress towards your goals. -- The Inner Brand (newsletter): Here's a step by step process to break free from the seeking cycle and go from passive consumption to intentional engagement: https://brandthrive.substack.com/p/why-we-seek-even-when-the-answer -- This podcast is your weekly Creative Companion helping you master the inner game, finish what you start, ship your work, and build a brand without yelling; because it's not the thunder that grows flowers, but the rain.

Navigating the Financial Landscape as a Creative with Hannah Cole (Artist, Tax pro, and Founder of Sunlight Tax). Most creative brains aren't skilled at taxes and accounting. Taxes often feel confusing, scary, and overwhelming, but they don't have to. In the episode, we'll share insights and advice for creatives on managing their finances and taxes. Hannah Cole, founder of Sunlight Tax, is a tax expert who specializes in working with creative businesses and mission-driven solopreneurs. A long-time working artist herself, she's helped tens of thousands of self-employed people skill up with accessible tax and money education, through her Money Bootcamp program, speaking engagements from Florida to Alaska, and on the Sunlight podcast. Hannah is great at teaching taxes because she's messed it all up, and been in the ‘bad place.' She doesn't teach from a place of superiority or judgment, but from a place of understanding. We discuss the importance of tax education for creative professionals. Hannah shares her journey of transitioning from being an artist to starting her own tax business. She highlights the myths and stumbling blocks that artists and freelancers often face when it comes to money. Hannah also discusses the challenges of finding balance and setting boundaries between her artistic and accounting pursuits. — Connect with Hannah Cole: sunlighttax.com sunlighttax.com/podcast @sunlighttax — Timestamps 2:57 The Need for Tax Education 6:05 The Challenges of Perfectionism 9:11 Transitioning from Artist to Accountant 12:09 Starting Sunlight Tax 16:35 Myths and Stumbling Blocks Around Money 19:36 The Importance of Taxes and Empathy 25:55 Growing Sunlight Tax 28:29 Overcoming Imposter Syndrome 31:07 Finding Balance and Setting Boundaries 37:51 Honoring the Season and Focusing on the Present 39:33 The Usefulness of Tax Software for Freelancers 42:23 Separate Bank Account for Business Expenses 44:14 Paying Yourself as a Freelancer 45:09 Double Entry Bookkeeping and Equity 48:31 Finding Help with Taxes and Financial Management 52:29 Hannah's Introverted-Extroverted Nature 53:13 Hannah's Art and Websites — This podcast is your weekly Creative Companion helping you master the inner game, finish what you start, ship your work, and build a brand without yelling; because it's not the thunder that grows flowers, but the rain.

The Subtle art of not yelling....at yourself. The voices in our head can get really loud. There's no shortage of opportunities for the internal voices to share unsolicited thoughts. Where does the voice come from? Why does it get so loud? How does it impact your life and your work? We share our experience with the voices and how we've managed to turn the yelling into a whisper - most of the time - so we don't get derailed. --- This podcast is your weekly Creative Companion helping you master the inner game, finish what you start, ship your work, and build a brand without yelling; because it's not the thunder that grows flowers, but the rain. --- Support & Connect Podcast website: ⁠https://subtleartofnotyelling.com Join⁠ theboxcommunity.com --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/artofnotyelling/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/artofnotyelling/support

The Holidays are great, but they are also really weird....especially if you're a creator or entrepreneur. We've all made collective agreement to slow down and recoup for a bit. But sometimes we're actually pulled towards using the extra down time to get ahead. How do we best navigate this? Do we hunker down and get some work done? Or do we take the foot off the gas and slow down?

"They want the fast route, I want the for-sure route." I was fascinated by a conversation I heard Ben having on another podcast and had to have him on. Ben has worked with Cole Gordon's sales team, Alex Becker and Hyros, as well as Eli Wilde (Tony Robbins top salesman who sold over 100 million himself).

Neil Gaiman's main rule for writing is: “You can sit here and write or you can sit here and do nothing, but you can't sit here and do anything else.” The subtle art of structure. Do you have it? Do you need it? Are you good at it? What happens if you remove all structure? If you're a listener, you're likely a little less structured by default. This can eat you alive if you let it. Instead, create a box. A simple container you can work in that allows you to take focused action and finish what you start. We stumbled across this concept in an earlier episode, which led to the birth of theboxcommunity.com. Now, we get more done in the box than anywhere else.

"I love the idea of someone looking out their window at 5am during a snowstorm to see me on mile 10." Myles Biggs returns to talk about how he continues to push the boundaries of his potential and put the principles of "Unseen Work" to use. Myles Biggs is a lot of things…an author, storyteller, marketer, coach, father, podcaster. But the thing that stands out to me over the past 5 years of knowing Myles, is his incredible ability to commit to something (a habit, a physical challenge, cutting out cookies) and take consistent action over time to make it a reality - something most people struggle with. How often do you set a goal or commit to a new habit only to quit a few days later? It's all about small daily actions that lead to bigger things over time. If you're a fan of David Goggins, long distance running, or find yourself short on discipline, this episode is for you. "I've chosen to do all of these hard things, which makes it that much easier to handle the hard things that I don't get to choose." -- Some of what we discuss: Having something to train for vs. working out because you should Consistency, discipline, habits, self-control Test, learn, grow (a simple framework for decisions) Being results oriented Overcoming mental chatter & becoming a doer Using AI to help you hire talent -- Connect with Myles Biggs: mylesbiggs.com @mylesjbiggs (IG) Ep page -- Leave us a review: ratethispodcast.com/artofnotyelling Sponsor the pod: subtleartofnotyelling.com/sponsor Join theboxcommunity.com --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/artofnotyelling/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/artofnotyelling/support

Freedom and independence take on many different meanings for different people. We are all grateful enough to live in a world where we are mostly free. Something that didn't come free. But even today, we don't always feel all that free. While many of us enjoy external freedom and independence, many find themselves trapped in the chains of relentless mental chatter. Our minds have a tendency to interject with self-doubt, self-criticism, and a constant need to measure up to societal expectations. These internal chains are often constructed by a combination of societal pressures and evolutionary mechanisms. From an early age, we are bombarded with messages of achievement, success, and fitting into predetermined molds. Society sets certain standards of accomplishment and often defines success in narrow terms, leaving little room for deviation or unconventional pursuits. Entrepreneurs and creative individuals, driven by their own visions and passions, often find themselves at odds with these societal expectations. The pressure to conform can stifle their creativity, leading to self-doubt and a constant feeling of not being "enough." Evolutionary factors (the brain) also come into play, as our minds are wired for survival and risk aversion. The primary focus has always been on safety and survival. Our minds developed to detect and promptly avoid potential threats. However, to be happy in today's world, we'll likely need to override those biological notifications on a frequent basis. We must take some risks and embrace uncertainty at times. But the fear of failure, rejection, or financial instability keeps us within the walls of safety and predictability, which is often the most dangerous place to be. So let us ask you, are you free? -- Leave us a review: ratethispodcast.com/artofnotyelling Sponsor the pod: subtleartofnotyelling.com/sponsor Join theboxcommunity.com --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/artofnotyelling/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/artofnotyelling/support

Hey! We're Bill and Miles. Nice to meet you. Who are you? If you're a human, chances are you squirm your way through answering that question. Let's talk about why. We seem to collapse who we are and what we do into one thing. But what you do is not who you are. Instead, what you do should express who you are. How can you find stuff that you can do that allows you to express who you are? If you're too attached to a false or forced identity, you're susceptible to breaking. When you're open and flexible, you can bend, change and evolve without spiraling into the abyss.
