Episode Title: Batch Creating Content: What Works (and What Doesn’t)

🗓️ Episode Summary

Helen is back from her travels and diving right into one of the most talked-about topics inside The Muthership Studio this month — batch creating content. In this episode, she shares her honest experience of batch creating tutorials before her trip, what she learned about the process, and why it’s both a powerful tool and a mental shift for creators.

She also kicks things off with a hilarious “Unsponsored By” segment featuring her travel deodorant saga — proving that even something as simple as deodorant can teach us about consistency, flexibility, and having a good backup plan.

💡 Key Takeaways
1. Why Batch Creating Matters
Batch creating can save your sanity during busy periods or travel.
It’s especially helpful for creators with a consistent niche or tutorial-based content.
Think of it as “content insurance” — your rhythm stays intact even when life gets hectic.

2. The Emotional Disconnect
Helen admits that batch creating made her feel a bit disconnected from her content — it didn’t feel fresh when posting later.
The lesson: it’s okay if batch-created content feels less spontaneous; the audience doesn’t notice — but you might.
Her sweet spot? About a week’s worth of content at a time, not two.

3. How to Do It Efficiently
Plan 4–5 videos in one shoot, especially if they follow a theme or tutorial style.
Don’t overcomplicate wardrobe changes — no one’s tracking your shirt!
Caption and save your videos to drafts so all you have to do later is hit “Post.”

4. Customize for Your Niche
Creators with structured content (like tutorials or coaching) benefit most from batching.
“In-between” content — trends, behind-the-scenes, spontaneous posts — can stay flexible.
Example: If you’re a relationship coach, plan a mix of speaking videos, trends, and voiceovers on your main topics.
5. Scheduling vs. Drafts
Helen prefers drafts for TikTok and Instagram, since she’s active daily.
For YouTube, she uses the scheduler — perfect for longer-form uploads that aren’t part of her daily rhythm.
