It was so much fun getting to chat with Kendra on her podcast a few weeks ago! She has a passion for helping other creatives do business better. She offers business and marketing advice to female entrepreneurs who are starting a business but feel stuck and don't know where to go next. In this episode we chat about how to prevent burnout before it even starts.

Here’s what Kendra has to say about the episode:

“It's pretty safe to say that at some point in your business you are going to experience burnout! I know I have! So this week I am chatting with business coach, and owner of the Burnout Proof Your Biz Podcast - Chelsea B. Foster.

She is sharing her tips for how to avoid burnout, what to do if you find yourself burning out & ways to stay excited about your business.

If like the Girl Means Business podcast then you and Chelsea should be friends (I'm pretty sure she and I were separated at birth).”

Ditto! I know y’all are going to love her podcast too!
