My late mum would have been 80 today. This photo of her and my youngest sister was taken at her 60th.

I thought 60 was old back then, and here I am a mere 2 years from 60 as well.

She was fun-loving, deeply caring and incredibly insecure.

She taught me how to laugh, how to love and how to forgive. She taught me the difference between right and wrong and if you can't say anything nice, shut your trap.

She loved her children fiercely. The hardest thing for her to do was to bury her only son. Although she met her grandchildren (all of them) she wasn't around to see her great-grandbabies born. I can only imagine how mushy she'd have been with them.

Make no mistake, under that mush was a take-no-sh*t grandmother who (sometimes) could be unfair with her grandies. But don't you dare say or do anything to hurt them, you would not have lived to tell the tale.

So, today I remember her with love, with sadness, but most of all with pride. She sacrificed MUCH for her children, and if given another chance at life ... she'd do it all over again.

When you say visibility comes at a price, do you not mean that the LACK of visibility comes at a price?

Did you know that commenting counts as visibility, too?

Yep, true story!

Not everybody can be (or even wants to be) arsed to share content on social media every day. So, commenting covers that for you.

But, also … when you're not visible, you're not making an impact. And when you're not making an impact, well ... nobody knows about you.

See the vicious circle here?

So when nobody knows about you because you're not visible, that's hardly anybody's fault but your own.

Visibility is more than showing up with content that you have created or visuals/graphics that you have designed on Canva.

Let's dive into a little secret …
.. you don't need a PhD in design principles to create Canva graphics that captivate!

Repeat after me: "I am the Picasso of my brand visuals!" Your creativity is your superpower, and Canva is your trusty sidekick in unleashing it!

Here's the golden nugget: You don't need a master's in design to make your Canva graphics shine. Your unique perspective is your design philosophy! Own it, celebrate it, and amplify it!

Pro tip: Embrace simplicity! Some of the most iconic designs are born from simplicity. Let's strip away the overwhelm and focus on the core message your design wants to shout to the world!

Guess what? Perfect is boring! Authenticity and imperfections are the real treasures. Your audience craves the real, the raw, and the relatable. Go on – infuse that charm into your designs!

Ready for the ultimate confidence boost? Let's schedule a 1:1 Canva session! We'll sprinkle some design magic on your current visuals, and look at what else "ails" your time in Canva.

Drop me a DM if you're ready to amplify your brand visuals! It's time to shine, and I'm here to help you embrace the designer within.

Did he mean I walk like a stampeding herd? Or did he mean I walk with purpose?

While out on my morning walk, a ways ahead of me, I saw a man walk out of his property and start ambling in the same direction I was heading. Not fast, but not exactly dead slow either. Just … average.

Since I walk with my pods in my ears, I don’t hear my footfall. AS I walked past him, he commented that he had heard me walking up to him for a while.

Makes me wonder whether I’m a stampeding herd or just purposeful.

I had no idea he was aware of me. I was simply walking. Listening to my pods, lost in my own thoughts and getting on with my morning.

Meanwhile, somebody else noticed me long before I realised it. Funny that …

How many of us spend our time worrying about whether our Canva graphics are good enough, or the colours work together, or the spacing is right, or should I have used a different photo, or whether anybody will even notice what we’ve created in the first place?

Meanwhile, somebody out there has already clocked us.

Visibility is like that. We often assume we’re making far less impact than we actually are.

While we’re angsting ourselves silly, somebody else is recognising our name, our business, our graphics, or even the content we share.

I thought I was just out for a morning walk. Apparently, I was announcing my arrival from several metres away. Whether that’s a stampeding herd or purposeful walking is still up for debate.

It’s a slippery slope when fear holds you back from getting started with your Canva graphics.

You scroll through social media and see gorgeous graphics being complimented in the comments. Then you think back to your own last attempt, and you get goosebumps, and you shudder.

Did you think I was talking about you?

Oh hell no! I was talking about me.

When I first started using Canva, the FOMO was real. I wanted people to compliment my graphics, too. I wanted to create the kind of visuals that made people stop scrolling and pay attention.

Instead, all I got was crickets.

Feelings of “not good enough”, “not creative enough”, and “underachiever” didn’t just circle around the edges. They dive-bombed me on a fairly regular basis.

The thing about fear, though, is that it sounds very convincing when you’re standing still. It has all these ideas that you’re not ready, that everybody is more talented than you, and it tells you to just stop embarrassing yourself.

What it doesn’t tell you is what might happen if you just keep going anyway.

Last week, I stood in front of a room of business owners and employees at a breakfast in Silverdale and shared Canva hints, tips, and shortcuts to help make the platform a little less overwhelming.

Yesterday afternoon, I jumped on a Zoom call with one of the attendees to answer a handful of Canva questions that would make her life easier.

Neither of those things would have happened if I’d listened to the voice telling me I wasn’t creative enough all those years ago.

And the funny thing … the capable version of you doing the thing you’re dreaming about already exists. She just needs to start before she feels ready.

I grew up white and privileged.

That hasn't changed over the years. Privileged in that I have a home, a warm bed, food, community, income, and so much more.

Last night I had the privilege of hearing Lilian Dodzo, Regional Leader East Africa for World Vision, speak. The facts and figures and stories were heartwrenching, and I'm humbled by the work that she and the approximately 33 000 others do in nearly 100 countries supporting and impacting the lives of over 200 million vulnerable children by tackling the root causes of poverty.

I am but a small part of it.

In May, I raised my hand to sponsor a child in Tanzania. His name is Davis, and he is 7 and just too friggen adorable for words.

This is a long-term commitment; it's not an easy 12-month tax write-off that I am embarking on. We're talking at least 10 years. AT LEAST!

The fact that I grew up hearing the words, "there are starving children in Ethiopia, so eat your food," meant very little to me back then. Over the years, I heard it less and less, but it always stays with you.

With my small contribution, I know I will impact at least 4 other lives in Malangali, where Davis lives.

Every contribution we make, we teach farmers new ways to grow more crops, we set up and help train local care groups to teach parents about good nutrition for their children, and we're helping build water systems, because water literally means life!

My invitation to you today is to join me and the MANY others who support young lives in the likes of Malangali. I'm but a DM away to share my full story with you.

"Am I too late to learn Canva?"

No.

Please don’t assume Canva is only for tech-savvy people and then struggle because you don't know where to start.

On Saturday, I had the opportunity to teach a lady (face-to-face) who opened Canva for the first time, saw all the options available and decided that this may just be a bit too hard for her.

The truth is that Canva is a skill. Just like driving a car, using Excel, baking a cake, or learning a new language, it takes practice. Nobody sits behind the wheel for the first time and immediately knows how to parallel park. (It took me forever to master that skill)

Yet somehow we expect ourselves to open Canva and create something wonderful on the first go.

Confidence grows faster when you focus on one task at a time. Just concentrate on the graphic you're creating right now instead of worrying about next week's social media posts, next month's content, or the lead magnet sitting on your to-do list.

And when you're sitting here on social media, wondering what people will think about your design ability, "Believe in yourself. People spend around 10 seconds thinking about you and then go back to thinking about themselves."

STUNNING words said by a past client of mine!

We’re all far too busy thinking about our own businesses, our own content, and their own worries to spend much time analysing your graphic.

Learning Canva is a skill, so don't treat it as a failing personality trait.

What's one Canva skill you'd love to feel more confident with?

You’ve probably had that moment where you open your browser, type in “lead magnet ideas”, scroll through them … and dismiss every single one.

So, you head over to AI and prompt: "With what you know of me and my business and how I help my clients, what would be an ideal lead magnet, please?" (Always remember the please)

The breakthrough you want isn’t there, no matter how hard you look. Even if your iteration of AI is extremely knowledgeable of you and your business.

And when you do what I did in my 2nd year high school maths class, you realise copying someone else's ideas isn't going to do you a whole heap of favours.

Didn’t work for me then, I just landed in BIG 💩.

Doesn’t work here either.

When you don’t know what your audience needs to FEEL first, every idea feels off. The idea is there, but it feels forced. It should work, but it doesn’t.

And then you’re questioning whether lead magnets will work for your business.

The Lead Magnet Clarity Guide won’t give you more ideas. It will help match what your audience is already feeling to a possible lead magnet, so the format makes sense before you even write a word.

If it doesn’t connect emotionally, it won’t convert. Simple as that.

Creating a lead magnet should feel clear, but most of the time, it doesn’t.

You sit down, come up with some ideas, and it feels good. But then you doubt yourself, so you switch formats and end up second-guessing that one too.

And before you know it, you’ve got another half-started draft sitting in Google Drive that never sees the light of day.

It doesn’t even make it to Canva.

When you're oozing content, because you're bloody fabulous, perhaps you think it's a format problem. I differ from that train of thought, though ... my take is that it is actually a STARTING POINT problem.

When you don’t know what your audience needs to feel first, every option looks like it could work. And then none of them ends up feeling right enough to finish.

… because people don’t take action just because something is useful. They take action when it feels relevant to them RIGHT NOW.

If your audience was looking for "just another freebie" it would have been easy to churn those out, but they're not. They’re looking for something that makes them feel seen, relieved, curious, or ready to move.

The Lead Magnet Clarity Guide helps you figure out the FEELING, so you stop circling ideas for the format and actually decide what you’re creating.

Done and out there beats perfect and hiding. EVERY time!

What is the shift your lead magnet promises?

Not the big promise or the full transformation. Just the moment … just before they decide to do something about that problem.

That small shift matters.

The person you want to reach isn’t looking for another helpful freebie. They’re already sitting IN something — overwhelm, frustration, or a sense that things aren’t working the way they should. And in that moment, they’re not asking for more information.

They’re looking for something that finally clicks.

That’s where many lead magnets miss the mark. They try to prove too much, explain too much, and include too much. In doing so, they tend to skip the one thing that actually gets someone to sign up: relevance in the moment.

If it doesn’t meet them where they are, they won’t move.

That’s the piece the Lead Magnet Clarity Guide helps you figure out, that emotion, so you’re not building something that sounds good but doesn’t land.
