“Where you dey go, Jo?”

I’m not going anywhere, really, BUT I’m going to give myself a break from creating content for Instagram for a while. 💫

I fancy being a consumer without (any self-imposed) pressure to create, and I want to work out how to use this platform for Firain in a way that I actually enjoy.

I thought I’d make this note for myself and share it, so that when my page seems a little stale 🍞 I can remind myself of The Grand Plan 🤪

Thank you for being here so far. Do sign up for Firain Mail if you’d like to hear more from me twice a month. Link en byo. 🔆

⚓️ I’ve been thinking about flotsam (the debris in the ocean that was not deliberately thrown overboard, often as a result of a shipwreck or accident) and jetsam (debris that was deliberately thrown overboard by a crew of a ship in distress, most often to lighten the ship's load).

I love an analogy, as you know, so here are some flotsam and jetsam questions to consider at the turn of a season:

🌊 Are there things in my business (products, ways of working, collaborators) that I can change to lighten my load? What does a 'lighter load' look and feel like in the business?

🌊 Are things out of my control affecting the business? How can I ensure I don't run off course and crash?

🌊 Is there something I threw overboard and can now reintroduce to the business? Why is now a good time to make these changes?

🔆 Let me know if you journal around these questions; I'd love to hear how you get on.

💫 At Firain HQ today, I’m working on the workbook for the perimenopause workshop I’ll run with on Sept 28.

We were going to close ticket sales on Sept 21, but we all need T I M E to think and process everything (waves arms around) so we’ll extend the ticket sales until 27 Sept.

Not sure what I’m talking about?! Head to my profile and follow the link, or DM me and I’ll send you the link.

Enjoy your day ⚓️

August fades into September 🍂🍃🍂

On the menu at Firain for the month ahead:

📝 A very special collaborative workshop on September 28: Be Careful, Your Body is Listening Workshop with Fiona Brannigan ~ this carefully crafted workshop is for anyone affected by Perimenopause. We want to explore its affect on creativity, and Fiona has some practical ideas to support us during this often challenging time.

Read more about it at https://www.firain.com/workshops and look out for more info tomorrow. Here to answer questions in the DMs, too 🌟

📝 Private workshops with , the gorgeously supportive membership group facilitated by . This month, we’ll look at how to launch a collection 🎨

📝 I’ll record a podcast this month, too, with which I am super excited about because a) Liz is a gem of a human and b) we’re going to talk about prepping online shops for the busy Q4 holiday season. Unavoidable stuff for you shopkeepers.

As usual, I’ll email my Firain Mail list twice a month, too.

So that’s my Can Do list for the month. I’ve mentioned it a few times already, but I won’t be taking on new clients from October to January at least. Need to catch up with myself. Do you know the feeling?

📝 What’s on your September Can Do list? Share below so we can get excited ✏️

The three P’s of selling online:

🌿 Perseverance
🌿 Patience
🌿 People who listen to you when those qualities are lacking.

I just finished a client call with a sensationally busy mum who has about 10 mins a day to build her business. She’ll do it, too, because she has the three P’s in mind. 💫

If you feel you can, tag the people below who support you when you need to feel bolstered. Who listen to your ideas and moans. We all need a bit of a boost right now 🚀

Image ID: my was faffing with seeds and soil and I bored him to tears with the many business + gardening metaphors and took shots for the gram whilst I did it. He got his seeds planted, I got a nice pic. Win win.

helps makers and creatives to plan, open and grow online shops.
