Resting Biz Face
Welcome to the Resting Biz Face Podcast!
This podcast for you if you're a writer, creative business owner or service provider!
I'm Michelle Allen. I'm a writer, producer and creative consultant and I'm aka the Infinite Upstart!
I'm also the Co-founder of Ironclad Creative, a Community Interest Company that aims to support writers & theatre-makers in the business of making art!
As you may have already guessed, I'm wildly neurodivergent and so need a lot of rest. Resting and shifting away from hustle is something I've had a love hate relationship with for a while - and believe me, resting is hard when your neurodivergent brain wants you to do ALL THE THINGS!
Ultimately, we all know that productivity culture is no good for anyone - so I want you (and I) to slow down a little, rest in a way that works for us, and be magnificently successful AT THE SAME TIME!
This podcast will mix thought awareness tools, mindset reframing hacks and creativity prompts with practical strategy, systems and processes which will allow you to build a way of working and creating that is truly independent to you.
Let's get you more income, more clients and more creativity without the burn out, the overwhelm, and the boredom!
Let's get your Resting Biz Face on!

110. Accountability: What It Really Takes to Stick With Something
We talk a lot about accountability in business, but too often, it’s used like a threat.
As if the only way you’ll follow through is if someone’s chasing you down or making you feel bad for not hitting a goal.
This week on this week's episode I'm flipping that idea on its head.
We get into:
- What accountability really means (and what it doesn’t)
- Why guilt and pressure never really work
- The kinds of support that actually help you stay on track
- How I use accountability tools like co-working, public commitments, and the 500 Words a Day Challenge
- Why accountability only works when it’s linked to action you want to take
If you’ve ever said “I just need someone to hold me accountable,” this one’s for you.
Listen now and tell me, what kind of accountability works for you?
