More Content Doesn’t Mean More Sales | 37
I’m just going to go ahead and say it… creating more “fresh content” doesn’t equal increased leads or sales. Yet, every time I scroll on Instagram or Facebook, I see a ton of posts and ads sharing this myth and honestly, it’s annoying.
This is why there are so many online business owners burning themselves out, or quitting before they even hit the 6 month mark. But hey, the good news here is that you don’t actually need to create more, more, more in order for your business to succeed.
In this episode, we’re debunking this long time myth and sharing what can actually help you instead.

How to Use Your Blog Post Workflow Consistently | 36
We’re going to rewind time here a bit back to when I was a blogger. I used to have “write one blog post” set as a weekly task but somehow, by the end of the week - it felt as if I got nothing with the blog post done.
Does this sound familiar? The truth is, there’s A LOT of smaller tasks involved with getting a blog post written which is where using a Blog Post Workflow can come in handy.
So let’s talk about how using this type of workflow can help you get more blog posts published quicker, and how to ensure you stick to using your new workflow consistently.

Canva Features That'll Make Organizing Your Account Easy | 21
Is your Canva account looking like a hot mess? Yeah, I’ve been there. For a long time, I didn’t realize that this was something even worth organizing, but thousands of designs later, I quickly realized otherwise.

I mean let’s face it, when you open up your Canva account, you’re not thinking “oh I need to organize this” no. You’re thinking you have a design to create and that’s where your focus is. I get it.

Using Strategic Systems to Reduce Your Overwhelm | 11
Even as a pretty digitally organized person, I had no idea what systems were until way later into my entrepreneurial years. And you know what? I strongly believe that if I had implemented these sooner, I would be way ahead than where I am now.

So in today’s episode, I’m going to let you in on what strategic systems even are and why you need to implement asap.
