Podcast appearances and mentions of sarah magidoff

Have stress and exhaustion become your default state? We talk with guest Sarah Magidoff about slowing down and creating boundaries when you're overworked. Sarah is the founder of CANOPY, a boutique creative studio, and the Instagram hashtag movement #slowentrepreneur

Just as our bodies are designed to go through cycles of activity, play and rest, our businesses should be, too. In this episode, Sarah Magidoff helps us adopt the #SlowEntrepreneur mindset; a movement she started to help other business owners combat burnout, create better boundaries and add more margin in their daily life for the things that matter most.   EPISODE HIGHLIGHTS & TOPICS DISCUSSED: Sarah shares her career journey and how a desired lifestyle change led her to the work she does today. Sarah explains what inspired her to coin the term “slow entrepreneur” and how this philosophy is combating the one-dimensional “hustle” mindset that has been modelled for us in the entrepreneurial space. We discuss the concept of ‘rest’ and how it can actually be looked at as an active vs. inactive practice. Sarah suggests replacing the word ‘rest’ with ‘re-charge’ to help us better shift our perspective. Sarah encourages preparation and communication in conjunction with setting boundaries in order to combat any feelings of guilt that we might experience from doing so.  We explore Sarah’s innovative workflow and the boundaries she has put into place to honour her own version of slow entrepreneurship, like her weekly ‘wandering wednesdays’ and quarterly ‘insta vacays’.  Sarah shares her vision for the future of the slow entrepreneur movement and what we can expect to see from her in the coming months. Sarah leaves us with one simple action item to kickstart our slow entrepreneur journey.   SHOW NOTES & REFERENCES: Connect with Sarah: slowentrepreneur.com | madebycanopy.com | @madebycanopy This episode is supported by our monthly patrons.

With our culture’s obsession with the “do more, make more” philosophy it’s easy to forget that “do less, make more” is a perfectly viable option too. In today’s episode we chat about what it means to let go of the guilt the can come with setting boundaries between work and life and how this simple mindset shift actually helps you to do your best work, take BETTER care of your clients, and thus, make more while doing less.-Check out the show notes for today's episode here!-Like we mention here—balance is a hot topic within the entrepreneurial space. So many experts have differing opinions so it can be hard to know WHAT to think when it comes to juggling work and life. But my take on it is THIS: we fall out of balance when we start overspending our energy. When we say yes to things that don’t support our priorities. When we overcommit because we were too afraid to say no.

Sarah Magidoff of Made By Canopy seemed to well, have it made. But behind the screen of a well-placed smile and can do attitude, she was suffering from extreme unhappiness and crying when no one was looking. How she found her way back to what really lit her up is a fascinating story that can be heard on my radio show,  “Entrepreneurial Voice” with Jan McCarthy that airs as a podcast.

Sarah Magidoff is the Founder and Creative Director of Canopy, a boutique creative studio designing for emerging brands. From a very young age, Sarah had her sights on being an architect and she worked hard to land in a reputable firm. In the midst of a career defining project, Sarah realized she didn’t actually enjoy being an architect. Heartbreak led to risk-taking and Sarah left her architecture career. She gave herself time to “play” in order to discover what she truly loved, and ultimately wanted to do with her life. In this episode, hear how Sarah unintentionally began her own creative studio during her “play” period. Since launching, Sarah has grown her client base organically through word of mouth and has remained focused on working with emerging companies. Sarah walks her clients through an guided process of question asking in order to distill their story and create a compelling brand concept. As a business owner, Sarah has experienced the challenges of being an entrepreneur. The hustle of working all the time to grow her business was beginning to threaten the love she had for her work. This year she decided to provoke the hustle narrative by developing the “slow entrepreneur” movement. Sarah reflects on how adopting the slow entrepreneur mindset at Canopy has saved her from burnout and ultimately allows her to live a life that keeps her healthy and happy.
