Are you thinking about starting a side-hustle? Or are you currently balancing a side-hustle with work, school, or a family? This latest series: The Side Hustle Shuffle is for you. 

The purpose of this new series is to inspire creators and creatives out there to pursue their side hustle. We all know it’s truly a hustle to shuffle between work, school, family, rest, and your passions, but it is possible. We’ll be speaking with the creators currently balancing their creator side-hustles in the next few weeks. And they’ll be sharing how they got their creative side-hustles started, what tools they use, and how they balance it all. 

To kick off this new series, I’ll be sharing three tips for balancing your side-hustle. While it’s been a few years since I’ve taken Emma’s Edition full-time, I did balance my creative side-hustle for 6 years.

Today we’re going to chat about how to create a content plan and stick with it. 

What is a content plan?

A content plan brings your content (photos, videos, graphics, audio) and platforms together. Your content plan includes your topics aligned with your mission statement, content pillars, and your audience.

If it’s your goal to build your brand, business, and community, creating a content plan for your social media channels can help you do that.

As a creator, influencer, or small business owner, it might not cross your mind that you need a bio or biography ready. But if you’re being tapped to do a podcast interview or you’re taking on a speaking engagement, you’ll probably be asked for one.

I’m recently preparing for my first networking/speaking opportunity this year. I’ll be speaking on the panel at the Seattle Business Babes relaunch event. And Alisha, one of the gals behind Seattle Business Babes, requested a bio.

I hadn’t refreshed my bio since last year so I thought it was time to update it and also share how to write a bio. So if you’ve never written a bio before and you want to have one ready, this podcast episode is for you.

I’m going to share my short bio and then I’ll breakdown the tips on writing a bio.
