Welcome to the Resting Biz Face Podcast.Who said you had to pick just one thing?&nbsp;If you're a writer, creative business owner or service provider who’s tired of being told to niche down, slow down or pick a lane, you're in the right place.I’m Michelle Allen: writer, producer, creative consultant, and trainee personal trainer... aka the Infinite Upstart.&nbsp;I’m also the co-founder of Ironclad Creative, a Community Interest Company supporting writers and theatre-makers in the business of making art.I’m wildly neurodivergent, multi-passionate, and (surprise!) often very much in need of rest.&nbsp;Resting hasn’t always come easy, especially when my brain wants to do everything all at once. But what I’ve learned, and what I share here, is that you can do lots of things your way, on your terms, and still build a sustainable, satisfying, income-generating life.This podcast is about finding your rhythm, not someone else’s formula.&nbsp;I’ll share mindset reframes, thought awareness tools, creative prompts, and business strategy that blend structure with spaciousness.&nbsp;It’s about building a creative work life that’s actually liveable, one that makes space for ambition and rest, ideas and boundaries, doing and not-doing.So if you’re building a creative life with a lot going on, and you want more income, more clients, and more creativity without the burnout, overwhelm or boredom, come rest your biz face here!Let’s do it differently.&nbsp;Together.
