Content creation can be overwhelming - especially if you are a service- or product-based biz and producing content isn’t your primary object. Or if you are running your biz on the side and trying to do #allthethings in just a few hours a week. 

But I have good news!

There are some simple things you can do to drastically reduce the amount of time you spend on creating and publishing content.

Today's Permission Slip:

Your permission slip for today is all about letting go of the need to create from scratch.

I create and use templates to allow space for content to easily flow out of me.
