In this episode, I’m sharing an actual episode from my Q&A Private Podcast, which is usually exclusively for my clients!   At the time of publishing this, my Q&A Private Podcast has over 70 episodes on it (!!) and I add more all the time. My clients can submit questions and topics, I curate which ones I answer for the private podcast, and I publish them as individual mini-episodes (1 answer/topic per episode) so it’s super searchable, digestible and easy to listen to! People absolutely love it, and I know you will too.    If you’d like to access the Q&A private podcast and all the other courses, resources, and support in Monetize, you can enroll today here.    This episode is one of many of our Q&A private podcast episodes - and today’s is all about how you can take longer, planned breaks (like 2-6 weeks) in your business when you are running an ongoing program.    The question submitted from a client was, “How can I take planned longer breaks during the delivery of my program?”. You’ll hear my answer in this episode!   I love this topic because I truly think all business owners should be planning for rest and time off in their schedules from the beginning - and baking this into your delivery, marketing, and strategy from day 1 is going to make it so much easier.   This episode is all about how you communicate those breaks and time off to your clients in a way that serves and supports them as much as it does you!   I invite you to join my free Creator Party community so that you can keep the conversation going. We do Podcast Chats where I answer questions about each episode, and we have a deeper discussion on the themes we explore on the podcast.   In this episode: How to plan to take breaks during your program delivery from the beginning The messaging and positioning of taking rest time while delivering a long-term program How to communicate your planned breaks to potential clients and current clients How mindset plays a role in taking time off throughout the year while you have a rolling program Examples of how I communicate expectations around my Q&A private podcast (just for my clients)    If you’d like to access the Q&A private podcast and all the other courses, resources, and support in Monetize, you can enroll today here.    Mariah is also putting together a small, cozy mastermind - think of it like a group chat of awesome founders and creators, finding monetization opportunities and doing cool sh*t!
