120 - Substack 101: What You Need To Get Started and Stay Consistent

As more professionals shift their attention to Substack, it's becoming more essential than optional. Even if that's just opening an account to follow your favorite creators. 

Although I joined in July, I didn't fully embrace Substack until the end of October. In this solo episode, I share some of what I've learned over the last 30+ days to help you put the pieces together and have a smoother onboarding than I did.
