Big goals don’t get accomplished all at once—they move forward one step at a time. So, what’s the one thing you’re going to do this week to make progress? 👉🏻Maybe it’s creating that piece of content you’ve been overthinking. 👉🏻Maybe it’s sending that email you’ve been putting off. 👉🏻Or maybe it’s something completely different. It doesn’t have to be a long list. Just one thing. What’s yours? Drop it in the comments—I’d love to hear how my LinkedIn community is moving the needle this week!

A year from now, I want to be able to say: ✔️ I finally started. ✔️ I stayed consistent and it paid off. ✔️ I learned more than I ever imagined. ✔️ I bet on myself—and it worked. Which one speaks to you? Or is there something else you want to say about your journey a year from now? Share in the comments—I’d love to cheer you on!

This edition of The Seedz isn’t about chasing every shiny trend for 2025—it’s about grounding yourself in what works for YOU. Because while predictions may be fun, your business isn’t a one-size-fits-all operation. What’s inside: 👉 Not all AI tools are created equal. 👉 The rise of shoppable content and where to start without losing your mind. 👉 A reminder that authenticity > algorithms—every single time.

Growth isn’t linear, and there’s no one-size-fits-all journey. Celebrate your progress. You’re right where you’re meant to be.
