How do we keep marketing our businesses when the world is a shitshow?
I’m intentionally using mild language in this post because I know you’ve heard all the details and don’t need more.
Working this past week has been difficult. We keep finding ourselves in unprecedented times, unearthing deeply rooted, horrifying issues in our society. It feels unnatural to keep going. To send the post about “showing up before anyone is listening” feels frivolous.
I started college while Take Back The Night rallies happened all over the country. I protested, I shared resources with other women, I carried a weapon. I made it into my 30s before I joined the statistic.
I am every version of angry and sad over the fact that girls heading to school are STILL required to have part of their brain focused on SAFETY. I’m sick for every mother with a daughter in college or headed that way.
It feels like a black hole that sucks up all our experiences and makes them irrelevant.
So for the third time in the past 10 years I’m writing about how to keep your business going while the world (and maybe your world) is full of grief and pain.

I sat down today to MAKE A SURVEY for my audience but then I opened my inbox for a password and here’s what I did instead:
I noticed that I had an email from one of the companies I’m an affiliate for. I needed to update my affiliate link for a new 30 day promotion.
So I opened my Squarespace to update my website’s resources page and remembered I wanted to update my homepage photo. Tested multiple photos, decided I didn’t like any of them and put back the original.
