After a couple of months away, the podcast is back — and this one's a rapid-fire catch-up. Chloe opens with an honest business update (June's momentum vs. July's slump, and the energetic leaks behind it), gives an update on the Armidale Creatives & Founders Group (300+ members and growing), previews the Chloe Careers Collective launching September 1, and shares where things stand on the fertility journey and dating life.
Then into the two topics her audience voted for most:
How to make LinkedIn actually work for you — not just look good. Banner and photo, the tagline formula, how to write an About section a hiring CEO would actually read, structuring your experience section around outcomes (not responsibilities), and the networking + posting habits that get you in front of the right people.
How she gets so much done in a day — the non-negotiables, the 45-minute time-blocking rule, dedicated content days, phone on do-not-disturb, and why energy management is the real productivity lever.
