Having structure and routine in our lives is definitely important, but I think as a society and a culture around powerhouse women CEOs and founders, we put such an emphasis on having the perfect morning routine. This emphasis on perfection and also this obligation to have a morning routine has personally felt quite cookie cutter, and a little bit toxic in a way. In today's episode, I share why I think morning routines are overrated -and you know what, I understand this is an unpopular opinion but I am definitely coming out and saying this! Like I said routine is important, but let's be honest not all of us have time to stick to this perfect schedule that we see others doing online. I talk about why having a morning routine doesn't always help your business, why sleep is super important and why you should find the routine that works best for you. In this episode, we cover: You aren't always going to have the perfect morning routine [1:23] What my actual morning routine looks like in a week [4:02] Why sleep is so important [10:31] Explore what routine works for you not for others [15:56] Connect with Mandy: IG: @themandyemerson IG: @thefiercesocialsociety Website: https://www.themandyemerson.com/
In today's episode, I share my own experience with having content go viral and why it isn't as perfect as you may think it is. I talk about why going viral may do more harm than good, how viral content attracts the wrong audience, why too many new clients may actually slow down growth and how to be prepared for having content go viral. Going viral on social media is something we all aim for because after all, it's the one thing that's going to increase exposure to your business and make you successful right? Well, not exactly. Having a piece of content go viral is great but it's not everything it's cracked up to be. This topic is really important to cover because there is a difference between going viral and having a viral business, and social media can make it seem like having viral content is the best and only way to be successful. In this episode, we cover: Does going viral actually help your business? [0:44] Viral reels can bring in the wrong audience [3:15] Drowning in new leads and not optimizing the ideal buyer's window [6:51] Be prepared for viral-ity [10:16] Grab the Weekly Reel Trend Report here Connect with Mandy: IG: @themandyemerson IG: @thefiercesocialsociety Website: https://www.themandyemerson.com/
