I appreciate your reflections on slow entrepreneurship! I've noticed the pattern in the advice you describe that tells entrepreneurs to offload tasks to VAs that they pay poorly. I love that you acknowledge that not everyone a) can pay for assistance or b) is willing to participate in paying assistants poorly.
Thank you for noticing that, Jenn! This makes me think about your brilliant recent post about unpaid/underpaid labor within academia, too. There are so many behind the scenes tasks that academics are expected to do in order to succeed (regardless if those expectations are directly stated or only implied). You talked about this expertly in your post!
I really appreciate your insights, Kate--in this post and always. The idea of a three-part brain dump process is intriguing, as are your reflection questions about a gentler pace of entrepreneurship. <3
