SLOW & ENERGISING Morning Routine | How I start my day as a self-employed, WFH creative.

NOT another 5am morning routine. Welcome to my winter morning routine here in Queensland, Australia! Today I'm sharing how I start my day slowly, but with purpose. I am not someone who needs or wants to get out of bed early or quickly in the morning (hooray for self-employment!) but when I do get up, I want to make sure I'm ready for my workday. I also don't drink caffeine, so I need to use other strategies to get me awake and ready to go in the morning! 💡A few references to learn more about some of the things I do each morning to energise my body and mind, and take care of my health.

I'm Jess Van Den - a former school teacher and science communicator - and I've wanted to make a living online since 1998. But it took me another decade to figure out how... I started my craft business Epheriell.com as a hobby in 2008 - and in 2010 I went full-time. I've been 100% self-employed ever since. In 2013 I also started createandthrive.com to help other makers turn their handmade hobby into a thriving business via a blog, podcast, courses, membership community + more. I also love learning & sharing more about health, happiness, plants, and how to be more effective as a work-from-home, full-time self-employed creative - so I have all the time I need to do all the things I love.
