What We Talked About:

Interviewing Jen Carrington, content coach & creative mentor & blogger extraordinaire
How Asia started working with Jen, and how her coaching changed Asia's blogging life
Discovering you are a creative person, and realizing that "creativity" doesn't have to mean what it means for everyone else
Starting a blog about *anything* is a great way to start
"You can affect someone with what you create."
Finding your strengths & running with them
"Coaching isn't telling someone what to do, it's making the space for that person to figure out what they want to do."
Giving yourself permission to be good at something
The confidence you have to say "I don't know"
The difference between faking it til you make it and only selling what you can deliver
Starting a business young & being "ballsy"
Not having to use your blog to prove you're an expert
Having a voice amongst the noise
Not having to be the loudest voice to be heard
"When I'm creating content, I'm not trying to be someone else."
"Strong content creation comes from strong intuition with your content."
Putting your brand at your core
Listening to yourself to lead your content
"It's a muscle you have to work on."
Extroversion doesn't equal confidence; authentic doesn't mean outgoing
Advice for those of you drowning in noise, or being burnt out in content
"Strip it back to basics"
"What am I trying to say in this season of life"
You stifle your best content by worrying about content strategy
You don't have to care about equipment/tech tools/the how as much as you have to care about the why
Being an introvert does not mean being isolated
For the millionth time, creative friendships are INTEGRAL in the creative business owner's life
Writing a blog post for one person
Being okay with charging what you know you're worth
Good for you, not so good for me. That's okay to say!
