What to say when you have nothing to say

DENISE DUFFIELD-THOMAS
About this episode

Today's podcast episode is about what to say when you have nothing to say. 

 

I know a lot of people in this space right now. 

 

For whatever reason, whether it be the aftermath of the pandemic, the economy, or the state of global politics, it can be hard to know what to say or whether to say anything at all. 

 

We're living in a time when it's never been easier to start and grow an online business. Still, it's also impossible to ignore the atrocities and inequity happening every day. 

 

When you consider what's happening in the world, it might feel trite to talk about your business or market yourself.

 

This feels like a lot, so it's understandable if you're unsure what to say online.

 

I wish we could solve all of the world's problems. But one thing I know is that not doing your business is probably not going to help. 

 

So, if you feel like you have nothing to say or are just tired and overwhelmed, this episode is for you.
