Spending hours in Canva every time you need to post? You're not alone! In this episode of The Creative Bodega, I'm breaking down my exact visuals-first system that cuts content creation time to about twenty minutes per post—without sacrificing brand recognition. You'll learn why your visuals should speak before your caption does, how to build a simple brand system that works on your busiest days, and the exact templates + workflow that keep you consistent without the overwhelm. If you're tired of starting from scratch every single time or feeling like your feed looks like a patchwork quilt, this one's for you. Let's make your brand recognizable at a glance.

Things I cover inside this episode:

• The Minimum Viable Brand Kit (MVBK) - how to decide your fonts, colors, and photo style once so you can publish on busy days without decision fatigue
• The Core Five Templates system - design once, duplicate forever, and stop reinventing the wheel every time you need content
• My 20-minute Canva-to-publish routine that takes you from hook to exported post without the time suck
• Why "casual doesn't mean careless" - how to keep a relaxed aesthetic while maintaining the recognizable vibe that builds trust
• The exact folder system and organization strategy that saves you from hunting for designs (and cursing your past self!)
