This week, we're so excited to welcome Anika, Maureen, and Samantha to Soulcial Suite!
Hi Reader,
Last week, I talked about my little *creativity lull* I've been feeling (and got a ton of responses from y'all about how you're feeling the same wayโthanks for the validation!).
Whenever we are feeling a creativity lull as creators, I think it's easy to try to get reinspired on the internet. Still, sometimes I find the most inspiration and motivation by actually getting off the internet.
Sounds backwards, right? But for whatever reason, this is always what works best for me.
So, in the last week, I've tried to do three things that got me feeling physically creative.
1) I took a watercolor ink painting class with SkillPop (one of my social media clients!). The classes are super affordable, you get to learn, and you get to play! Our project for this class was pumpkins!
2) I went to two Billie Eilish concerts. Maybe you don't know this yet, but Andrew is what I call a 'pop girly'. His favorite artists include Billie, Sabrina Carpenter, Ariana Grande, etc. We literally have all their albums hanging in our house (it was all his idea too, lol).
We got concert tickets the moment they went on sale, and both shows just happened to fall in my creativity lull. I got to dance, sing, scream at the top of my lungs, and ogle over my favorite artist IRL.
3) I did a mini photoshoot at a cute new studio here in Charlotte. Truthfully, it's been a while since I've looked at myself and felt cute (pregnancy + working from home in sweatpants every day can do that for you lol).
So, I did my hair + makeup, putting on mascara for the first time in probably 6 months, got some cute outfits together + hired Andrew to shoot some new branding photos of me where I moonlighted as a non-pregnant person so I can use these photos for the next 6-8 months hahahah.
All of this to say...
I'm feeling more excited to post. I also did a whole revamp of my 2026 socials plan that I'm feeling reaaaaallly excited about, but that's a story for next week's newsletter.. ๐

CARMY HAS OFFICIALLY BEEN ADOPTED!
HONESTLY, I didn't know if I'd ever be able to share this news with you, but Carmela has officially gone to her forever home.
Three months of watching her grow, falling in love with her, and fighting to find her the perfect home, and it's all over ๐ฅน
It's always bittersweet when a dog we loooove gets adopted, but she is with the best family, and I have a feeling she's going to live her absolute best life with them.
HAPPY TAILS, CARMY!!!

โโ๏ธ Frequency and consistency are not the same thing โ You don't have to post every single day to be consistent as a content creator.
๐ค Have you ever seen the word "indemnification" in your creator contract? โ I won't blame you if you haven't, but make sure you learn what it really means!

THE SUBTLE ART OF NOT GIVING A F*CK BY MARK MANSONโ โ4/5 โญ๏ธ
I was waiting for one of my Libby holds to release, and I needed a quick audiobook in the meantime, so I took out this one. A short read, really inspiring and really validates the idea that no one is paying attention to you as much as you think they are and to stop NOT doing things because you're scared of what people will say/think/feel.
A really valuable lesson for all creators + entrepreneurs out there!
