I’m talking specifically about on your social media or online presence. Maybe it’s a preference thing. Maybe you like switching personas. But for some of us, we’ve worked hard enough to integrate work into our life that there isn’t much of a line.
I freelance / consult / coach. I operate as myself, rather than as a company. And I’ve been thinking a lot about how I use social platforms.
My close, meaningful relationships happen off-platform anyway.
I often post personal things but they’re not private (or I wouldn’t post them).
I could just make every post public, let my profiles be a representation of the (good) work I do, and not have to worry about it.
After all, I’m quite proud of the work I do, it’s often the first thing people ask anyway, and it’s a pretty massive part of my life. I have shaped my work to fit me like a glove. It is more expressive of my being than my clothes are.
I did consider going off social media altogether. But there are places that allow me to be generous and helpful and connected, even though I refuse to be reactive.
How do you treat social media? (particularly interested in how any other solopreneurs think about this)
