Does your social media feed give you the feels?
Hey Reader,
They say “What you put out into the universe comes back to you.”
While it doesn’t always work that way, there’s truth to it.
On a smaller scale, I’ve felt it in my social media circle—particularly LinkedIn, which is the main platform I’m active on.
Over the last few years, I’ve curated this digital community of like-minded people who fill my feed with education and inspiration.
Sure, the algorithm can do mysterious things sometimes…
But overall, I get excited to see the people in my feed. They’re talking about similar issues I’m involved with and educating me on others I might not otherwise know about.
It’s energizing to see them out there doing great things. It motivates me to keep talking about the initiatives I care about, whether personally, with Drio, or with Monument Women’s Creative Alliance.
Plus, it helps us attract potential prospects who share our values. Win-win.
It all boils down to leading with our brand values online. By talking about the things we stand for (rather than only hard-selling), we curate an ecosystem that gives us much more than surface-level likes and engagement.
It gives us connection.
You can do the same. Here’s some inspiration to get you started:

Hi Reader, Have you ever tried stuffing a pillow into a box? It will fit and it’s still technically a pillow. But there’s no room for air. That’s how I was feeling just before Rachel and I left for WordCamp in Italy last month. The lead-up to the trip was particularly busy as we prepared to be out of the office for two weeks, closed out tasks, and made sure the team was set. When we landed in Italy, I felt a rush of air. It was like taking the pillow out of a box—I unraveled and resettled...
