Memorable Quotes:

"So often we're holding our breath or we're thinking about so many other things. I find for me that overwhelm is a physical feeling. Just by using our breath to say, I can do this, I'm just going to take a moment to pause and be truly present with my planning, strategy, and ideas."

"It's not the end of the world if you don't stick to a strict content plan, as long as you look at the big picture and you spend one hour per week planning your content...You have to take action."

"Success is 20% planning, 80% action...You can plan up the wazoo. You can have a full content planner, have all your stickers in place, and have all your Instagram posts scheduled but guess what? If you're not taking action and actually sharing your content and engaging with your people and making small daily tasks a part of your routine, you're not going to get anywhere...Planning is only the first phase."
