Do you ever feel like a boiling frog? So busy that you don't notice that "enjoyably in demand" has turned into "totally overwhelmed and frazzled?" As artists, it's often a challenge to ask for help - partly because some of our work HAS to be done by us, and partly because we can't accept that anyone could do things as well as we do!

If you feel like you don't have enough time to get everything done, you're not alone. In this week's podcast, Alice and I ask if systems and tools can help you plan your time; discussed how being honest with your choices makes all the difference, and wonder when it is time to delegate tasks. (And if it IS time, how on earth do you decide which ones and who to trust?!) We also discuss overwhelm in the context of preparing for exhibitions - we have some ideas of how to display unfinished work and wonder if perhaps someone will fall in love with the raw unfinished state of a work in progress. (and then what do you do?)

So many questions! And even if we don't have all the answers, we're happy to share how we each manage hectic schedules and packed 'to do' lists.
