SUPPORTED BY GUSTO Hey Reader, 55% of people in the US are experiencing real burnout right now. I believe it. Do you? Because it doesn't feel like just a statistic. It feels like real life: my inbox, my feed, my conversations with clients. We're all feeling the weight of having opinions about everything because everything requires an opinion these days. It's a particular exhaustion of caring deeply in a world that keeps adding things to care about. I don't want to add to that, so I'm not going to tell you what to do. But I will make a suggestion, and tell you what I'm doing instead. I'm planning a mini adventure. A friend I really admire used the phrase and it stuck. A mini adventure is small, deliberate. Not a vacation you have to plan for six months. Not a reward for finishing everything on your list. Just a moment you schedule because you decided you're worth one. I don't even know what mine looks like yet. I'm thinking mountain biking? Maybe something else. But I've decided I'm having one and that decision, as small as it is, already feels like breathing. BEHIND THE BUSINESSShall we show up for 30 Days?Speaking of small and deliberate, a while back I built a little thing called #Tik30. Thirty days. Thirty TikTok posts. One hashtag to find your people. It's not about going viral. It's definitely not about the algorithm. It's about showing up for 30 days and seeing what happens when you do. I've met a lot of internet friends that I later met in real life with this method. It might be worth trying. Grab the prompts, use the hashtag, find someone else doing it (🙋🏻♀️) and cheer them on. Because practice makes progress. (See what I did there?). Big love, If you’re receiving this, you signed up, were recommended by a fellow creator, or downloaded one of my helpful resources.
