In this episode, we chat about the Power of Saying No. We found that when you say no to what doesn't serve you, you'll experience an increase in energy and you'll protect your energy to enable you to drive toward your why! Join in on the conversation with Jules, Rachel, and Stephanie two other podcasters and artists: Jessica Libor from the Inspired Painter Podcast and Katrina Berg from the Candy Colored Studio If you have a question you'd like us to discuss feel free to email us at hello@artistssoar.com Key Talking Points When you say no you are preserving your energy to work toward your why. Be intentional with what your why is and preserve your time toward what matters to you. And say no to what doesn't serve your why. Saying no is a way of creating boundaries. You don't want your excellence to suffer. When you spread yourself thin you aren't able to produce the level you want. Sometimes it is a hard choice. Jessica talks about How to increase your energy. trampolining - she listens to some great music and bounces for 15 minutes to gain a ton of energy. dancing - energizes Jessica for days. Rachel discovered that what feeds your soul feeds you energy. Jules loves to do headstands to get her blood flowing differently. Called Feetup. What questions should you consider when you need to decide yes or no? What does your body say? What is in your gut? Will this expand your experience? Take a minute "that's an interesting opportunity, let me get back to you in the morning". How much energy is the client going to zap from you? Do you need to add a PETA fee (pain in the 'A' fee :) ) Do you like the way the relationship is going? Set standards as to who you will take on as a client. Always say no to art scams. Those fabulous emails we all have seen "I can send you a check". "stormed onto your artwork"... Give it a timeline for what you'll focus on and evaluate it at the end of the timeframe. There may be some trial and error. Saying no to lowering your prices. Provide direction to your end-of-year sale/offers. As an artist, is our job to educate our collectors.

The Formula That Works. There are two types of artists: a hobbyist and a professional. A hobbyist mentality is different from a professional one. Hobbyists want to get paid for the piece, the professional wants a profit to live off of. Art is a skill set that is worked at and should be compensated. Show the process to get your collectors involved so they know the value the artist puts into the piece. Stephanie talks about how the square-inch model is failing today's artists. 50% of your work is just creating your artwork, if you don't do the remaining 50% of work to do the promotion.

Not hold myself back due to limiting beliefs or imposter syndrome. What was your background before you become a digital nomad?

Cat took baby steps to start her travels and slowly developed a network of other digital nomads. What kind of safety concerns did you have or precautions did you take?

Google the place you are going along with the word "scams". What are some tips to overcome your fears and imposter syndrome? Don't self-label yourself.

Do not be on your phone! Consider giving a survey to find out what the audience or email subscriber wants. Test different ways of doing things (A/B testing). Mindset is the #1 thing to watch. #2 Figure out how to turn it into a positive Consider having a document that you can actually write what you want to say to get it out of the way (never share) Create a "Fabulous File" to put all of the positive things people have said about your work.
