What are your thoughts on Instagram Instants?

It's similar to snapchat.

It's an instant, in the moment raw photo that is seen by your friends and/or followers that disappears once they've seen it, and is only available to view for 24 hours.

I don't currently have it on my own account, but all of my clients do.

I kinda see why you might use it for in the moment content, but also as a business this is what I would personally use stories for.

Would love to know what you think and if you'll be using it.

Here we are again..... the last day of term!

My clients for next week are the most demanding I've ever had.

⭐ Constant demands with no regard for deadlines
⭐ Expects me to be available 24/7
⭐ Exposure only pay
⭐ Absolutely no boundaries
⭐ The harder I work the faster the more requests I get
⭐ Doesn't like constructive criticism
⭐ Not team players
⭐ Ghosts me when I need them
⭐ Expects to be prioritised over all other clients
⭐ Doesn't trust my processes

100% would bin them off if this was an actual client but these particular clients are my 15 year old and 8 year old!

Have a great half-term!

I went out into the wild today to the

My first session started off looking like a silent disco with a cool set of headphones, but instead of music we listened to on how he got to where he is now by pushing through the negativity and difficult situations. My takeaway from that is that I’m definitely going to start buying the Lurpak!

This was followed by who showed us the kind of pics we should (and shouldn’t) be taking to appeal to potential new clients.

Went for lunch with some fellow Jellys before entering the lounge where everything was sparkly, pretty and pink for more introductions, conversations and hugs 💕

Saw lots of people I already know and met lots of new people.

Didn’t take many pictures but came away with lots of lovely goodies and info from people I hope to follow up with.

My 7yo fleeced me of everything in my goody bag - but kindly gave me back any business cards, leaflets and some teabags that he didn’t feel were of any use to him 😂

I was chatting the other day about the load we carry as mums. The invisible kind — all the life admin that comes with having children and running a home, often done under the radar with little acknowledgement.

The remembering, the planning, the organising, the emotional load… it’s a lot. And so many mums are carrying that while also building careers, running businesses, freelancing, or working full-time.

As a freelance social media manager, I have the privilege of supporting women working in all kinds of ways — from stay-at-home mums carving out time for their ideas, to full-time working mums balancing meetings, school runs, and everything in between.

There is no single “right” way to do motherhood or work. Every setup looks different, and every mum is doing the best she can with the many hats she wears.

Today feels like a good day to acknowledge the unseen work, the resilience, and the quiet strength behind it all.

Happy Mother’s Day to every mum making it work in her own way. 💛

Happy International Women’s Day to all the amazing women in my life!

The theme for this year is Give to Gain which is particularly apt when it comes to runnjng your own business.

In my experience of self-employment the support from fellow women owned businesses is amazing.

If I’m stuck, I call on the women in my space who give up their time to not only help me with my stuckness, but also provide solutions. No question is too basic or stupid!

A special shout out to the - the Inner Hub has come to my rescue on many occasions 💕

March is finally here and we were treated to a blue sky at the weekend which only means one thing - the beach ☀️

There were so many people out, all grateful for a break in the dull wet weather we’ve had recently.

It definitely makes a huge difference to your mood ☀️

This month I’m going to be doing a lot of work on my own business:

☀️Streamlining all my processes
☀️Updating my Lead Magnet offer
☀️Email marketing (it’s been a while)
☀️Generating new leads
☀️Creating video content (Eek)
☀️Going out into the wild (aka Networking)

What are your business plans for March?

It's Monday and the kids are back at school and I'm back in front of my laptop.

Last week was a mix of work and spending time with the kids - a good balance of both.

We spent a couple of days in Bristol which was really nice. We were total tourists, wandering around and dodging all the cyclists and scooters who were slowing down for nobody!

My week is looking like this:
541 emails
Content creation
Client Engagement blocks
Email list set up
Newsletter creation
Content Planning

As well as my ever-growing to-do list. How's your week looking?

Happy Valentine's Day!

Don't worry, this isn't your usual mushy gushy post but a bit of an appreciation post.

Yesterday was the last day of term for a week, and even this time last year it would have sent me into a bit of a panic wondering how I was going to give 100% to my kids at the same time as giving 100% to my clients. The whole work/life balance doesn't just go out of the window, but smashes though it!

But not anymore! Planning is the key. I've got all the work I could do in advance done, my inbox is clear and up to date. All the bits that have to be done in 'real time' are in my calendar so that I know to do them (and is also kept to a minimum) and my socials are scheduled to keep my business ticking over.

That's not to say I won't be doing any work at all, but there will be no meetings, discovery calls or anything that needs me for huge blocks of time.

This means that I can enjoy the half-term with the kids guilt free, but also stress free in the knowledge that all is well on the business front too.

How do you manage the school holidays as a business owner?
