My biggest mistakes and successes from 2022

I don’t know about you, but January 2022 feels like another lifetime ago.   I feel like I’m a completely different person from who I was at the start of the year.    But on the other hand, it feels like the year has flown by and I’m still working on things I was frustrated by a year ago!    If you have had a whirlwind year and you’re thinking about how next year can be different, then today’s podcast episode is for you.

Why I love Batching Content Creation

Why I love Batching Content Creation

I love batch creating content – it has changed my life.  And I just get better and better at it. Friends call me the batching queen. I batch EVERYTHING - my social media content, my podcast, video content, admin tasks in my business.  I wish I could find a way to batch some of my kid related stuff!  This one simple mindset shift makes things easier and more profitable. So many people resist batching. It might seem boring. Or hard work. Or lacking creativity. But it works for every type of personality and every type of business. And it won’t limit your creativity. You can be lazy and disorganized and still do it. I have ADHD. I still batch.  Because it’s so profitable for me to be consistent in my business. Consistency has made me millions of dollars. I’ve not made money because I am sexy or funny (although I am both those things!). I'm the smartest or most creative but I am really freaking consistent.  I'm so consistent that people think of me when they see the color blue. When they see bees, Kombi vans or roses! Because I batch like a mofo.                Recently, I created 150 days worth of content for my rose farm social media accounts in one day - for Instagram, Facebook and Pinterest – yeah, 450 pieces of content!  Listen in to the latest episode to find out exactly how I do it!
