Managing Multiple Creative Businesses, with Holly Shaw.

Hey Maverick,

In Episode 110, I have a fantastic conversation with Holly Shaw. She is an author, performance coach hypnotherapist, and stand-up comedian.

Yes, all of those things! As you'll hear her say, she goes up on stage three to six times a week for her own comedy career in addition to running her businesses and seeing her clients. She is clearly a multi-passionate, creative entrepreneur.

We talk about each facet and how they are woven together to create a fulfilling career. I ask her about balance and how she makes time for everything she needs to be healthy, happy and creative.

Holly also happens to be a solopreneur, which I love because she is proof positive that fancy tools and teams are not required. Enjoy!
