Recently I have met so many people beginning their journey in business or thinking of taking the leap. I will never forget those fearful moments when I left a secure full time job to follow a dream I had.

Have I ever thought of packing it all in? Yes , many times . But these feelings are temporary and the path isn’t always easy but always remember not to compare your Chapter one to someone else’s Chapter 10!

It’s a journey of ups and downs! Take the leap if your gut tells you!

Sometimes you have to lose to win!

If you try to win, you might lose, but if you don’t try to win, you lose for sure!

If you want something you have never had, you must be willing to do something you have never done.

Happy International Women’s Day! 💃💜💪

“Behind every great woman ... is another great woman.” ― Kate Hodges

I could not do without the women who have helped me get to where I am in business and in life.

🤍I have recently seen the connections with some who don’t even know their power but who have helped me take steps that I couldn’t jump to myself.

I believe if you give you will receive more in return.

Always try to help those that are in a previous chapter than yours, someday or somehow it will come back to you. 🤍

Sinéad 😊🤍

🔪Are you killing your video before you even have the chance to make it?

Let me explain what I mean by that. Often videos on this platform do well for numerous reasons, but something that they all have in common is ✨fascinating depiction. ✨

Let’s take a look at Tanner Leatherstein.

This guy is obviously extremely passionate about leather and the craftsmanship behind it. The craftsmanship is beautiful, but unfortunately talking about something like leather doesn’t tend to be the best of the best in terms of making your video go viral.

Tanner does something different. He creates an immediate connection with his audience, even if they’re not into leather, and he does it through these three simple things.

1️⃣First, he uses popular well -known brands, and then connects it back to his business by examining the leather quality. This gives a general viewer an entry point into his niche to latch onto.

2️⃣Second, he creates pressure throughout the video by targeting large corporate brands in his’ Is It Worth It series’. It’s a subconscious story arc of, a normal viewer like you or me could latch onto.

3️⃣Finally, he produces oddly satisfying compilations that you’d see constantly. The ripping into expensive luxury leather creates a sort of terrifying but nonetheless satisfying viewing experience.

👉How does all this help with your videos?

You might have the greatest idea ever idea, but when presenting it, if it isn’t showing value or fascinating depiction it won’t go far!

Treat day 😊 Over and out from the transfer. ✨

I don’t feel exam assessment is the best measure for everyone, yet unfortunately, it’s the only benchmark used in today’s education to value someone’s success and worth.

When I recruit I always go on gut instinct.

Einstein hit the nail on the head with this quote:

“Everybody is a genius, but if you judge a fish by its ability to climb a tree it will live its whole life believing that it is stupid.”

Each child learns differently. Some learn through stories. Some learn through doing. Some learn by painting.

Our modern education system is flawed and instead of making students passionate about learning it makes their self - worth tied with a grade.

We all learn differently and have our strengths and weaknesses. Exam results do not define you as a person and they certainly don’t define the rest of your life.

They are so much more than just a number. ✨🤍

INTERESTING FACT: ✅ We interrupt around 55% of information in any conversation via BODY LANGUAGE to determine whether we like someone or not.

Here are some tips to help when shooting your videos:

✅ Posture: Sit up straight or stand tall to appear confident and engaged. Slouching can make you seem disinterested or unsure.

✅ Eye Contact: Look directly into the camera lens as if you’re making eye contact with your audience. This builds a connection and conveys confidence.

✅ Hand Gestures: Use purposeful hand movements to emphasize your points. Avoid fidgeting, as it can distract from your message.

✅ Smile: A genuine smile can make you appear approachable and confident. Practice it before going live or recording.

✅Slow and Steady: Speak slowly and clearly to convey confidence. Avoid rushing through your words, which can make you appear nervous.

✅Dress: Wear clothing that makes you feel confident and suits the occasion. Your outfit can significantly impact how you feel on camera.

✅ Practice: Rehearse your content and delivery. The more you practice, the more confident you’ll become.

Remember, confidence on camera is a skill that can be developed with practice and self-awareness. By mastering your body language, you’ll project confidence and connect with your audience more effectively.

🚀The key to virality often lies in evoking strong emotions, encouraging sharing, and timing.

👉Additionally, promoting your video through social media, collaborations, and influencers can help give it that initial boost it needs to go viral.

✨Just remember in many cases, it's more advantageous to focus on creating valuable, consistent, and authentic content that builds a loyal and engaged audience over time.

✨Virality should be seen as a pleasant surprise rather than a primary strategy.

❗️Creating a video that goes viral can be unpredictable, but there are some unique ideas and strategies that can increase your chances. Here are some suggestions- Swipe right 👉
