The #justbloodypostit podcast Helen Perry

*There's a mild swear or two, as per*

How often do you berate yourself for failing to tick-off your to-do list? Or congratulate yourself for creating a splendid to-do list (but not actually do any of the to-do)? And ask why after months and months of meaning to do a to-do it remains...undone?

Rhetorical questions -the answer's yes, often to all of them - I didn't need to ask. Me too.

This week, our guest writer Bec Evans shares what she's learnt about the art of getting things done. About why we so often overestimate what we can do in a day or week (I'm the Grand Master of this) and how we can change our habits and outlook and start achieving things.

She shares a bucket-load of actionable tips and insights about


how to create lists that work

and environments that stimulate action

how to spot the obstacles that stop us moving forward
and get excited about creating and writing and sharing!

**Mind your ears for mild some swearing**

What a bloody treat! I got to record a real life on-the-sofa-next-to-me show with some favourite work pals at The Podcast Show London 2023. And here it is for you to wrap your ears and thoughts around.

Nic Redman (voice coach), Suzi Dale (podcast producer), Hilary Salzman (copywriting storyteller) and I all have our own podcast. And in this special edition of #JustBloodyPostIt we talk about





what makes it possible to start a podcast

why you'd bother doing something so slightly tricky

why more women aren't doing it 
and whether podcasts and video mix (argument!)

This is Nic's previous #JustBloodyPostIt about how to love your voice: https://audioboom.com/posts/8110095-how-to-love-the-way-you-sound-with-voice-coach-nicola-redman-nicredvoice

**Just me this week, mind your ears for a couple of swears**

This time, I want us to talk about the difference between being good and being known.

Because how known you are - how many followers or subscribers you have - has nothing to with how good you are. But we can get the two muddled, too easily. 

Listen for some thoughts on 


wanting visibility

whether the gloss is coming off the audience-building biz
and Hannah f*ck&ing Waddingham 👑

This week on the show, tech high-flyer turned burnout specialist Anish Hallan shares how to recognise and avoid burnout.

Burnout's often associated with office workers and CEO's - but pursuing a passion project can leave us just as vulnerable to damaging our health through over work.

Because getting to do what you've always wanted and are most interested in - and not having to answer to a boss, feels like a dream. But can turn into a nightmare of never-ending tasks and self-imposed pressure if we're not mindful of our own work-life balance.

Anish and I chat about his experiences of burnout and,


creating healthy boundaries (that actually create longevity)
making the connection between healthy work-life and a healthy mind and body
how we define success in our work

I mention Josephine Brook's episode of #JustBloodyPostIt for anyone who's particularly interested in burnout, click here to catch up.
