Hey Nadine
WOW!! Summer in ST. PETERSBURG RUSSIA

Start strong - You've got 3 seconds to grab attention (really it’s more like 1.5sec) Hooks are everything in short form content, become the master of them. Use a question, a surprising fact, a funny scene, a subliminal action, or anything unexpected to make them stop scrolling.
Done is better than perfect- Don't get caught in the "perfect" trap. Polished is great, but waiting forever to post or film something because the “condition arn’t right”, is just holds you back. Get it out there, learn from feedback, and keep creating!
Don’t fall in love with your content - It's easy to get attached to your content, especially when you’ve put hours of work into it. But sometimes it just doesn't land, while that other piece you through up in 5 mins does. And if you put too much emotional energy into, it’s easier to get discouraged and deflated. Analyze what worked and what didn't, adapt your strategy, and move on to the next piece.
Focus on one platform- Pick your platform (Instagram, TikTok, YouTube) and become the master of it. Learn the ins and outs, what content resonates there, and build a strong presence. Then you can move on an expand to the others. All successful creators blew up on one platform first!
Patience and Persistence- Content creation is a marathon, not a sprint. Success takes time, effort, and a whole lotta persistence. Don't get discouraged by slow growth. Keep putting out quality content, interacting with your audience, and watch your community blossom! All it takes is 1 piece of content to go viral and it’ll change your life.
Always have a CTA- I’m not talking about always selling something, but telling people to follow, like, comment, share with a friend, or ask a question to spark engagement. Engagement takes encouragement.
Don’t post and ghost- Respond to comments, answer questions, participate in discussions. Show your audience you care, and they'll care back. I always stick around for at least the first hour after I post a new piece of content, and then check in periodically every few hours for the first 24-48 to make sure all questions or comment are responded to. So hi! Leave me a comment 😊
Have Fun- I like to always remember to have fun. Now not all my content is centered around it, I defiantly experiment more so with certain platforms than others, but I’m never afraid to just try something that’s just for fun. Social media can become a grind and very robotic if you let it, so don’t. After all, if you’re not having fun, why are you doing it?
Psss. If you’re looking to get more consistent with your content creation, download my FREE 90-Day Content Planner : nadinesykora.com/90daycontentplan

They have begun to question if their content will be "good enough" for their newfound success. The more they grow, the more audiences expect of them. And they put more and more pressure on themselves to create content that can “live up to the hype”, which most won’t, especially if they went viral to get there, so eventually they’re in a stalemate. They doubt their content's worthiness for the audience they've built, and ultimately they feel the only option is to not post at all.
They've let self-doubt sabotage their own success.
Does this sound like something you’ve done before when you’ve had success?
If this or burnout is an issue you are experiencing, check out my free quiz to take. It’ll give you your burnout status, along with some of my best tips on how to combat it.

Also, regardless of how it performed on Instagram, I still had FUN making it. ( I mean, I got to eat a bunch of candy… 🍬)
Not everything I create is going to be gold. I don’t plan every piece of content to be optimized for the algorithms. If I did, social media would become a dry & stale place pretty quickly!
Do you agree?
Make sure you remember to still creating content for yourself. 🙌
Get a copy of my free 90-Day Content Planner to help you add some FUN into your content creation: nadinesykora.com/90daycontentplan
One of my top ways is by having a solid plan, a well-organized calendar, and clearly defined content pillars that serve as my guiding principles for creating content on my social media platforms. This not only makes the planning process easier but also ensures that I always have a consistent stream of content to share.
Luckily, I’ve put one together for you. ;) If you’re looking to get more consistent with your content creation grab a copy of my FREE 90-Day Content Planner: nadinesykora.com/90daycontentplan
What are your thoughts?
P.S. If you feel like you’re heading towards burnout I’ve actually created a quick little quiz that’ll help you determine just that. It’ll give you your burnout status, along with some of my best tips on how to combat it.
If you're interested: nadinesykora.com/burnoutquiz
I know I sure have, as several high-profile creators have decided to leave the platform for various reasons, the main one being burnout.
As an OG YouTuber, this is something I've experienced and dealt with many times over the years. I’ve learned how important it is to recognize when I'm heading towards burnout, so I can start implementing solutions to combat it.
If you're a creator yourself, have you ever thought about where you are on the burnout scale? How close are you to burning out or even quitting altogether?

I thought I would be more productive and better at managing my time. It wasn't a pandemic, so I had no additional excuse.
But no, I spent my first 3 months feeling so tired that after a few hours of being awake, I would want to go back to bed.
Then the nausea came, just like last time. I was nauseous 24/7, and the only thing that seemed to help was eating continuously. Needless to say, I've gained more weight than I was hoping for, and even at 14 weeks, I've had to switch to wearing almost all pregnancy clothes.
But I've tried not to be too hard on myself, especially since my anxiety about everything was through the roof. I worried unnecessarily, which hasn't quite gone away (hormones are just wild).
This led me to being an emotional mess, not motivated or able to focus on any task requiring higher thought.
So I ended up binge-watching weird shows on TV and eating a lot of plain bagels, juice, and popsicles.
I put all the projects and videos I wanted to film on hold.
Luckily, this doesn't last forever. While it seems like such a long time in the moment, it's already a distant memory in the past.
So that was my first trimester in a nutshell, how was yours?
✅Pack carry-on only
✅Ship your gifts before hand
✅Get to the airport minimum 3 hrs before
✅Check in online 24 hr before
✅Bring a portable charger + cord
✅Bring a book & patience 😅
Good luck! Follow @heynadine for more travel tips ✈️

🤿Learn to Scuba - Tired of sights above the land? Head on down under the sea to experience a whole new world. Learning to scuba usually takes 3-4 days, but it’s totally unlike anything else you’ve ever done.
🇬🇷Greek Island Hopping- Each of the Greek islands are so different that hopping between them make for a great, varied trip. Beaches, parties, sunsets, volcanos, ruins – they have them all.
🦎Jungle Adventure- This doesn’t have to be the Amazon, but experiencing the wet and wild jungle is a unique adventure. Just plan your seasons accordingly, as the wet or dry season means these destinations will vary quite a lot.
