We’ve all been saying it – the world is crazy right now. So – here’s some clarity around what’s top of mind for me: the energy crisis in China, opportunities with NFTs, and what the heck to do with paid social.

This episode is a solo cast. I wanted to check in and talk about what’s been on my mind as we prepare for Q4 and ultimately start to make our 2022 business plans. 

I’m thinking about how to optimize Facebook and Instagram for Q4 (after a crazy year). I’ve been doing daily journaling and it’s given me a great perspective on where I’m at in my business and life. I’m also talking about how the energy crisis in China will likely impact business and why you should be paying attention now. Plus, I’ll share some new exciting things to come on the podcast with an NFT series. 

I’d love to hear from you on Twitter. What are you thinking about? What’s exciting to you right now? Let me know what you’d like to hear more about on the podcast. 

I hope you enjoy this solo episode – I always enjoy talking with you.
