If you’ve been in my community for a while, you know that I love to plan. And doing my beginning of the year planning is something I look forward to every year. This has been the case for as long as I can remember. So, in December 2023, I set aside time to prepare for 2024 in my personal life and for my business.
But something happened.
I felt burned out by social media. Posting on my Facebook business page, in my Facebook group, and on Instagram was sucking the life out of me.
The other thing that became very obvious to me after sitting still long enough to pay attention was that a lot of the things I was doing, had very little ROI (return on investment). And I don’t mean just financially. Finances are important – afterall, I do run a coaching business. But just as important is the return on investment that I should be getting from making the impact God’s called me to make. I had been doing things that I enjoyed, but those things were more for my benefit than anything else.
So, I want to ask you, can you relate to any of this? Are you making the impact that God is calling you to make? Or are you staying safe in your comfort zone, like me?
After praying about my next steps, the Holy Spirit clearly spoke to me and He said that I have to become more visible. I have to put myself out there – not in a sleazy in your face kind of way. But in a way that shows me being of service, glorifying God, and serving the women He’s placed me here to help.
This revelation has led me to doing social media differently – being more personal. I am also hosting a dating after divorce summit in June (It’s a lot more specific that this broad topic, so stay tuned for more details.). My new plans include launching a weekly podcast within the next 30 days. And something I’m really excited about is starting a new company that will design luxury journals, planners, and devotionals. And as you can see, I am back to blogging and publishing my weekly newsletter.
If you need to pivot in any aspect of your life or business, I hope this post gives you permission to do just that. Afterall, I know I can’t be the only one.
