Procrastination is a common challenge for many des

Procrastination is a common challenge for many designers, but it doesn’t have to stand in the way of your success. These are three of my favorite practical strategies for reclaiming productivity as we round out the year:

1️⃣ Turn Your Work Into Smaller Tasks: Instead of trying to complete a big project all at once, detail it into smaller steps. For example, write just the intro of a blog post or focus on a specific part of your design. Smaller tasks are easier to manage and help you avoid feeling overwhelmed.

2️⃣ Make a List of Unfinished Tasks: If you have a bunch of tasks hanging over your head, write them down! Sorting them into categories—like work, home, or personal—helps clear your mind and gives you a clear plan to tackle them one by one.

3️⃣ Organize Your Workspace: A cluttered workspace can slow you down. Take some time to organize your desk, tidy up your digital files, or rearrange your space to make it easier to focus. A clean, organized environment helps you stay productive!

What has been helpful for you in overcoming productivity challenges?

Ready to outsmart your brain and break the cycle of procrastination? Drop an 🧠 emoji below!

Here’s the deal: your brain LOVES routine—even when it’s holding you back. It’s wired to RESIST CHANGE, shutting you down before you can even start.

💡 Whether it’s tackling that job description, hiring an assistant, or just getting out of bed without hitting snooze💤, the trick is to INTERRUPT the pattern.

Every step forward builds confidence and takes you closer to your goals. Don’t let your brain win by default.

🎧 Tune in to episode 115 of The Design Business Freedom Podcast to learn exactly HOW to break mental blocks and create real change in your life and business! Link in bio.

🚨Question of the day: Are you breaking the law

🚨Question of the day: Are you breaking the law by design?

In episode 114 of the Design Business Freedom podcast, we’re diving into a hot topic that every designer needs to understand: the blurred lines between inspiration, plagiarism, and copyright infringement.

It’s not just about following rules—it’s about respecting the craft and protecting your hard-earned work.

I’m sharing eye-opening real-life examples, from misused templates to clients crossing the line with your intellectual property.

And here’s the kicker: while one mistake might lead to a legal battle, the other could cost you your reputation.

🔐 Learn to protect your work, honor others’ creativity, and avoid the pitfalls that can damage your reputation or business.

Listen NOW to understand these nuances and stay on the right side of both the law and ethics!
