Lately, my business has been in a bit of a pickle. For years, I’ve relied on Google as the main source of new blog readers and students for my courses. Unfortunately, Google traffic has dropped off so much, that I started to fear for my business. I needed to do something. So, 5 months ago, I jumped back into LinkedIn. The first two months on LinkedIn, I felt anxious and overwhelmed.

I’ve even found that honing my skills over nearly a decade in digital marketing made my mindset worse at times. Sometimes, I struggle to remember why copywriting matters when it feels so easy. Facing these moments with honesty is the first step in defeating professional exhaustion and discouragement.

When a freelance writing client gives me a 3,000-word article, it usually takes me ten days to write it. I mean, it doesn’t take ten actual days to write the article, but I would space out my time to do some research, do a little writing ( like the introduction), wait for subject matter experts, or get distracted with life – twins, dinner, chores, sports, etc.
