Should you use a CMS?

 I've recently ditched my website in favour of a portfolio, blog, Etsy shop and social media accounts. It was a bold move for a marketer, it's nice to show people a shiny website but actually I wasn't winning business through it - my portfolio online is far more useful and this blog showcases my writing.

So I've recently written this article about whether to use an expensive CMS. It's something all marketers need to consider when creating a website. But first and foremost you need to think: 'Do I need it?' 'What purpose does it serve?' Maybe an alternative marketing solution is better for you, especially if you're a small business. 

Happy to chat about this if you're interested?

New me

 Well, what to talk about today? I just want to share that I feel truly blessed as I now have not one, but two fantastic jobs! So I've hung up my freelance hat for now, but don't worry I will be back! Maybe in a couple of years or so, I'll just see how things pan out. So I'm working in the public sector in two jobs about healthcare.  I'm still navigating my mental health at work and still have very bad days, but slowly I'm starting to rebuild my career and with it my confidence. I can do this!

Going under

In just under 3 weeks I go under the knife to try and tackle my mood disorder. Sound strange? We think I have PME, so my mental health is being attacked by my menstrual cycle.  I'm having a hysterectomy and I'm so hoping it works. For the last 5 years I've been so unwell very regularly and it's had a huge impact on my family. I'm so grateful to them for sticking by me all this time as it's been hellish and I've lost friends along the way. So here's hoping things improve...I'm doing this for my family. And when I'm well, life is amazing so here's to more of that!
