Juggling all the things? This episode is for you!
In this week's episode of Originate Now, learn how to take some things off your plate, and stay in your creative zone, by implementing the art of delegation and task management.
Jessica Higgins Chapman gives you practical, budget-friendly tools to help you identify what you should be doing vs. what you can offload — even if you don’t have a team or on a super tight budget. It’s time to stop doing it all and start doing what matters most for your creative process.
Topics Discussed in this Episode:
- Why creatives resist delegation (and how to reframe it)
- The 4-zone method to figure out what you should actually be doing
- Free and low-cost delegation tools for when you don’t have help
- Systems to manage tasks, streamline your workflow, and protect your focus
