HOW TO COME BACK AFTER AN AWKWARD BLOG SILENCE

Is this thing on?

I don’t know if you’ve noticed, but it’s been a MINUTE since I’ve posted ’round here.

I’ve got some pretty legit reasons for that, and that’s exactly what I’d love to share with you today.

FACT: This summer was a total game changer (for my business and my LIFE). For many reasons.

The lessons I’ve learned, the people I’ve met, the STUFF I’ve had to work through to keep from totally losing my marbles along the way….there’s just so. much. goodness I could share with you.

On any given day. In any given blog post, Facebook status, or Instagram pic.

How could I pick the “right” place to start again?

(I couldn’t.)

Every week I’d have the best of intentions to get something up here, and then I’d call “uncle” by Thursday night.

“Can’t do it. Next week.”

Then I’d feel guilty (which DEFINITELY didn’t help things along), and that just added to the self-imposed pressure.

It was weird. And frustrating. But WHEW! Now it’s over :)

Thankfully, by the miracle of momentum – and a little welcomed peer pressure – I ripped the band-aid and got back in the blog saddle. Because I really do love it in here.

I LOVE sharing what I’m learning with you, and life is short. We don’t have time to waste.

So I’m starting here. With a reset button. A little transition, a little regroup, a little confessional.

Wanna hear me out?

In this video, I share:

IN A (COCO)NUT SHELL

All of my creative juice was dedicated to A Course About Copy this summer. As a result, the revenue generated through August matched the revenue from my entire first year of business. (insert big-eyed emoji because what on EARTH)

That much work + connection + exposure (and vulnerability?) was amazing, exhilarating, exhausting, and intense.

And while I managed my ULPs pretty well if I do say so myself, the rush definitely threw me for a loop. I needed to take some time out to decompress a bit, but now I’m back and ready to share as much as I can while it’s all still fresh in my brain.

(That’s where YOU come in, buddy.)

YOUR HOMEWORK

In the comments below, tell me:

What do YOU want to know about this summer o’ crazy?

Remember (as mentioned on my home page), I’m down to share stories, tips, and mutual inspiration on life, business, and all things communication. That intentionally gives us a LOT of wiggle room over here…so let’s mix it up!

Truly – ask me anything – and I’ll use your comments as an idea bank for all the videos I’ll create in the weeks and months to come.

Deal? Deal.

Feels SO good to be “home” with you again, friend.

Let’s do this!

To moving right along,
