Sending you so much love and hugs! I needed to read this today! Thank you! And I am excited to see your results. I’ve not been “good” at keeping up with the Joneses so to speak when it comes to social. I have ran with it like I do with my personal socials 🤣🤣🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️ and I am far from consistent. Making a plan to change that. But, as with many of us, it’s slow going. 💜💜🙄😕 prioritizing all the things to fit while making sure we take care of ourselves too. We got this!!!

Thank you 🥰

What I realized is that I was overthinking so much of this. There are incredibly easy ways to automate a lot of this - that doesn’t mean I automate connection and engagement, but we don’t owe these platforms anything.

And yes, we’ve got this!

I agree with your sentiments here. I refuse to write for algorithms. I write what I want to and what I think adds value. Your work teaches me new things each week. Thank you.

Thank you, Bonnie,

I think that’s what makes Substack unique. People writing what they want and being able to engage with a variety of topics.

If I had a crystal ball I’d say a lot of people are feeling the same and moving in that direction.
