The Anti-Hustle Toolkit episode of the Business Oddcast
Hustle culture is pervasive in the small business world. If you run a small business I’m certain you’ve heard of some guru or other saying “work harder” (HARD PADDINGTON BEAR STARE AT GARY VEE).
Hustle is also associated with the “grift economy”, part of which is highlighted in the Louis Theroux Manosphere doc. None of it is healthy long-term.…

Privacy Notice on your website
Do you have one? Is it up to date? Are your forms compliant with UKGDPR?
We have moved three websites recently and only one had a Privacy Notice and it was not UK GDPR compliant. Also, one of the companies was not even registered with the ICO, which is mandatory if you are processing “Personbally Identifiable Data”, which, if you have…

Does compliance affect offline and handwritten notes too? – I always worry about them going into the recycling.
I do shred – but it is a niggle I have!

1. Find the Real Storage Hogs in Gmail

Annual review
Anyone do a personal annual review? Gains, losses and the various things you wanna do more of, less of, change etc. Not really resolutions, more directions of travel?
Or do you do a continual rolling assessment and course correct as you go, no real direction of travel, more ensuring momentum and at least not remaining stuck is the answer?

The end of 2025 / start of 2026 has been a big reset for me anyway – new job, new home, new direction, new motivation – Feels less about having a perfect map and more about not drifting, keeping momentum, and staying connected.
I have been continually rolling assessment / making it up as go is best for me. Strength in numbers definitely matters,…

How to get free transcriptions (not clickbait, not promoting)
Anyone here using Audacity? If you answered “No” then let me enlighten you, if you said “yes” then let me “blow yer hair back”!
Audacity is 100% free audio software. It’s not a full feldged Digial Audio Workspace (DAW) but it is a pretty decent way to edit audio. Currently it’s getting a much needed overhaul and they have recently…

Wow, Audacity, there’s a throwback… 🤯 Pretty cool they’ve invested in enhancing the tool from my early days of using it probably around 15 years ago! 😬😅 Thanks for sharing, @stu !
