In this podcast I answer the questions I get a lot, "How is free content different from paid one?" "Why do I need to create it?" "How can I make sure it leads people into action?" I share not just why free content is important, but also 3 main principles that turn boring content (like, words of the day or 5 rules for the Present Simple) into one that fires people up!

Friends, welcome to 2025!
I hope this parable inspires you to reflect on what you want to achieve and what you're willing to give to achieve your goals in this new year.
This parable was written by Yulia Minakova, inspired (possibly) by Stephen King's thriller "Needful Things," and translated by me.
If you would like to learn to work sustainably in 2025, I invite you to check out my resources at my course page: https://courses.elenamutonono.com/

In this episode, Aurelie Grihangne explains how she transformed her business in just a year. Like many teachers, she started teaching 1:1 on platforms that ate up all her time for little pay.
She had a big audience on social media, but the long hours drained her energy and didn't leave time to create new content. She was struggling and didn't know how to move forward.
After working with Elena, she started offering asynchronous programs and shifting away from 1:1. Now she has more time to experiment, create content, and her business is thriving!

In this episode, Akvilė describes how she made the transition from working 8-12 hours a day down to just 3-4 hours. She started feeling burned out and knew she needed a change.
When she first tried working asynchronously, it was an experiment that she did as "something extra" on top of 1:1 classes. But then a health challenge prompted her to switch completely.
Now she has the freedom to work when she wants and has time to experiment with new approaches to teaching and marketing. Self-coaching has been crucial to reaching her goals.

Before, he was stuck where many teachers are, selling his time and taking on as many students as he could manage. Now he can be more selective about who he works with.
He's also been able to increase his income even though he's working fewer hours. And his students are more engaged and getting better results with his new approach to teaching.

He shares some of the most important steps he took to reach his goals. One of those steps was taking up improv, which has given him more empathy for himself and his clients.
It has allowed him to let go and stop getting in his own way. He's been able to bring this approach to his students and clients as well - to help them relax and enjoy learning.

In this episode, Petra Bozoradi describes her journey to becoming a sustainable business owner. After joining the Smart Teachers Library, she was able to transform her approach.
Learning new teaching formats were the most valuable part of her experience. When she joined the Library, she was working 50 hours a week teaching 1:1 and creating materials.
Now, she's making more in half the time with asynchronous lessons and no amount of money could make her go back to 50-hour weeks. Her Read, Learn, Speak program is a success!

In this episode, Leo Roux shares his journey as a queer language teacher. After getting his CELTA certificate and starting to work with students, he noticed something wasn't right.
Eventually, he realized that he didn't feel comfortable sharing his queer identity in the ELT community. Partly, this is because most ELT materials are biased toward straightness.
He decided that he wanted to create a safe learning space for the queer community. Now he is able to be himself and provide a safe environment for queer language learners to thrive.
