There's a big difference between creating content that ticks a box and creating content that feels like you. The kind of content that sparks connection, gets your audience nodding along, and positions you as the person they want to work with. In this episode of Talk, I'm diving into what it really takes to create content that reflects who you are, content that connects, converts, and feels good to post. You don't have to follow every trending reel or tip list to succeed. You just have to show up as you. If you've ever felt overwhelmed by "shoulds" in content creation, this one's for you. What You'll Learn in This Episode Why Creating Authentic Content Matters We explore why content that doesn't feel like you chips away at your confidence and connection, and how to shift back to a strategy that reflects your values and voice. How to Anchor Your Message Your message is the foundation of every piece of content. I share how to anchor your content with what you stand for, what you stand against, and the feeling you want your audience to walk away with. Using Prompts That Spark Real Engagement Ditch the generic content. I share my favourite content cue prompts from my Marketing Deck, like "I remember the moment when…" and "Here's what I wish someone told me when…" to help you create posts with personality. Create in Flow, Not in Force We talk about the importance of creating content when you're energised, in flow, and inspired, and how to use music, blocks of time, or batching to make it happen more often. Keep the Human in Your Content Let's stop editing out the very things that make us relatable. You'll hear why it's okay to share behind-the-scenes moments, a messy desk, or a real-life story. That's the stuff that makes people connect. Start With What You Have Tech should never be a barrier. Whether it's Canva, your smartphone, or a simple free tool, what matters most is starting with what you've got and growing as you go. Key Takeaway Your best content is the kind that sounds like you. When you show up with honesty, relatability, and heart, your audience connects, and your content strategy becomes a whole lot more sustainable. Action Step Choose one post this week that feels like you. Use a prompt from this episode, skip the polish, and share a story, lesson, or moment that brings your audience closer to you.
