Recommended by Robin Stewart

I love porches, and fireplaces, and cemeteries and church steeples, tracking my ancestors and climbing brick walls. I love being able to spend time with family, I love my two noisy Poms, and watermelon, and I love writing about this journey called life.

The Mindful Content Creator

By Marcy

A home for content creators and creatives who want to make meaningful content that has a lasting impact. We're tired of the one-size-fits-all content strategies that cheapen our work and burn us out. It's time for something better.

Finding a better way to create content was something I really needed. When I found The Mindful Content Creator on Substack, I knew I wanted my content to live in a place where creativity and truly meaningful content were valued. If you are a content creator, I recommend listening to Marcy Farrey's podcast and reading her posts. She inspired me and I think her newsletter is just what is needed.
