How a Can of Black Beans Is Helping Me Create Social Media Content

I’m starting a 30-day social media challenge.

I showed up late to the social media game, but I’m all caught up now.

Instagram started getting popular when I was in high school. I refused to use it for a few years because I thought it was only for girls to post selfies and take photos of their food.

Eventually I gave in, and create an account.

A year or two later I created another account and started making inspirational quotes.

Even though my pages never really took off, I had fun creating content.

Then, the craziness of 2020 started, and I figured out I could use social media to get clients. And a few friends had me create content for their businesses.

Within a few months I was creating content for 15 different accounts.

I created hundreds of posts every month.

Then I got burned out and wanted nothing to do with any of it. It felt like a roller coaster. One day it was fun and interesting. But other days I was up until 2am staring at a blank page trying to figure out what to post next.

I’ve found somewhat of a happy medium.
