NEW 10 Tips for Moving Your Podcast Editing Business to a New Country
👋Hi Wavie,
Today I want to focus on the pain AND opportunity that comes with change. Not my recent geographic change but changes in the podcasting space.
We don’t need to be fearful of everything that’s happening but we do need to adjust our mindset to thrive. I hope these 2 items help with this.

Quotes from SPI 670: How to Win Big in a Recession—Roundtable with Jason Feifer and Matt Gartland
Here are the spots where I stopped what I was doing and sat in their words. This is such a powerful conversation wavie, I hope you listen to it.
☕“Something that everyone should keep in mind in a moment of disruption is that you are not the only one being disrupted. Everyone else is too, which means that people have new needs and those new needs are not gonna necessarily be met by old incumbents, which means that now is actually a great opportunity to look around and say, how can I be useful to other people?” Jason
☕ “But what we really need to do, she says…I found really powerful is to talk about how productivity really should also be about energy management and that things that preserve and grow your energy, should be thought of as productive.” Jason
☕ “We, we spend, we spend far too much energy debating whether or not something should happen when it has already happened". Jason
☕“…it makes me think about something that I picked up from friends of mine, Adam and Jordan Borstein, who have a consultancy called Pen Name and a thing that like to talk about with their clients is whether or not something is a door or an engine. Imagine you're going down the highway in a car. If the door falls off, that's bad, but you can still drive. But if the engine falls off, you're not going anywhere. And so it's always worth evaluating when you see something shift, do you have a door or do you have an engine?
☕ “The false consensus effect is the mistaken belief that other people think like you because of the false consensus effect. We don't often turn to others to ask what would they do in this situation, or how did they solve this problem? Or what ideas do they have because we just figured they, they think like us. Whatever ideas they have, I already had, and that's not true” Jason
☕ “I just wanted to remind people how important that is because productivity is not just adding more things into the time that you get back. It's almost allowing that time to just be so that you can recharge. And, and I know that's not a very specific metric, but that is something that I do track and, and pay attention to.” Pat
