      I’m a Certified Content Marketing Specialist, SEO content writer, and AI specialist—so believe me when I say I know how exhausting it is to crank out content with no real plan.

      For years, I felt like I was on the content hamster wheel—always creating, always behind, and never sure if any of it was actually moving the needle.

      Then I got smart about my strategy, streamlined my process, and everything changed.

      That’s exactly why I created the 20 Essential Questions to Create an Effective Content Strategy: to help you stop guessing, stop overthinking, and finally build a plan that makes content feel manageable again.

      What Writer's Life for You Customers and Clients Are Saying

      “I always seem to be planning my content on the fly and decide to do "whatever," so this seemed like a well-thought-out system (and not just winging it).

      The biggest light bulb went off when you talked about planning content around things that I'm selling or promoting that month. Then it seemed obvious what content I needed to create; I just had to fill in the blanks with topics already in my "vault" of content ideas. I can finally batch!!

      I've planned out my whole quarter, and if I wanted to, I could plan out the whole year!!

      I would absolutely recommend this training to anyone who struggles to know "what to talk about" in any given month or week and wants to plan things ahead.”

      “I bought Content Planning 101 when it originally launched as a Paid Live Training, so the price was an instant yes, and since I've been in your world for over a year and a half, you're my go-to for all things content creation.

      One thing that I was massively intrigued about, which I'd never heard of before, was the method you use yourself for content planning.

      But I know I needed to get my arse into gear and start again, but this time with planning and a strategy in place.

      Now, I feel relieved and like a huge weight has been lifted off my shoulders because the entire process of content planning is laid out in a way that's really easy to understand and take action with.

      My biggest takeaway was the strategy you go into detail about; it is GENIUS!”
