In this episode, we go behind the scenes to a week in my life as a part-time content creator, breaking down the strategies and best practices I've developed over the years that allow me to produce this podcast and publish content across multiple social media channels.
As an added challenge, I set myself the goal of recording most of the footage for this long-form video in the same week as I would produce and publish three short-form videos, share my usual photo content, and engage with my audience through replies and comments - all while maintaining my busy schedule as a full-time academic administrator.
This setup allowed me to demonstrate some of my best tips around content planning, workflow, and strategy, along with the tools and resources I'm leveraging to make everything work for me most efficiently and effectively.
