⏪ Last time, a curated report of content I found worthy of a dog-eared page corner in the past month. That’s here.
⏩ Today, the start of a brand new series … The Monthly Edit! ✨

🗺️ November 8, 11 a.m. PST (see your time zone here) | ✨ [LIVE Event] Annual Content Roadmap Retreat ✨ to create your roadmap for 2025—the foundation for your content planning all year. (This event is a gift to paid members of the club as a thank you for your support in this space! Join us!)
Good morning from my post-TWO SPOOKY birthday-party-hosting sleepy eyes while trying to focus on the new week combo! 👻
You've got last-minute costume adjustments to make and Reese’s to siphon (the superior Halloween candy, obvi), so I'll make this fast—
This is a quickish email to let you know the first drop in a BRAND NEW series—The Monthly Edit—is live. ✨
Because yes, you can hop back in the planning driver’s seat when a new month rolls around.
This new monthly guided audio sits nicely between our Annual Content Roadmap Retreat (November 8! Save the date!) and Quarterly Content Planning Parties. I envision each monthly drop with a short creator’s pep talk about something on my mind or that I’ve encountered recently, a guided monthly review and a few ideas to consider in your content for the month ahead.
In this episode:
📝 My take on the writing practice after seeing the results of a “How You Write” survey—bc I like a new planner for laying out fancy goals as much as the next girl, but the secret? Butt in the chair.
🙇♀️ How to pull an Uno reverse card on feeling like you didn’t do enough this month with prompts for review and reflection.
🍁 Three questions to help you hone in on what to share in the month ahead, plus timely themes to consider.
💛 A gratitude newsletter template to make your own (find it below)!
But don’t wait.
The faster you jump in …
… the faster you’ll have your November content calendar set so you can log off and enjoy all the people you’re most grateful for. 💃
Hit play above, and let me know what you think of this new series in the comments!
~ Over and out—and may your Halloween be filled with treats! 🎃✨🍬🪄🍭
Rooting for you,
Your Gratitude Newsletter Template
Consider this a starting point for expressing gratitude while inviting your readers to engage with you in a month focused on gratitude. Feel free to adjust any sections to suit your tone and audience better! Include anecdotes to make it personal to you.
