Welcome to a special bonus summer episode of Showing Up with me, Vicki Knights - a Visibility Strategist, Branding Photographer and Positive Psychology Practitioner. 

This episode dives into a topic that's been buzzing in my DM’s over the past few weeks: should you share about your summer holiday on your business social media accounts?  I know I said I was now taking a break from the podcast until series 2 starts in September, but when I had lots of chats about the topic of whether you should share your summer holiday on your business social media accounts, I knew it would make a perfect bonus summer episode.

I explore the following questions:

• Am I just showing off? My own internal debate on how much of my holiday to share on social media
• Do people really want to see this? How sharing your holiday can build your personal brand and connect with your audience on a deeper level.
• How can you make it relevant? Strategies to make holiday posts relevant to your business and valuable to your followers, including tips on integrating your personality, values and expertise.
• Are you advertising to thieves? Safety concerns to be mindful off if you’re posting online about your holiday.
