Being a Content Creator

Feels Like Riding the Waves of the Ocean

In my first Simply Nobel podcast episode, I said that I was finally getting clear on my content creation journey 🤍

Little did I know that things would get more complicated before they got simpler!

Being a creator feels like riding the waves of the ocean

It’s a thrill! One minute you’re up, and all is well in the world again. The next minute, you dive straight into the tumultuous ocean. Unable to make out which way is up and which way is down! 🌀

Over the past 2 weeks, sleep, food and exercise were almost non-existent. I HAD to find my way out of that wild ocean. The problem was, the harder I swam, the deeper I sank!

Today, April 22nd, 2025, 6.5 years into my content creation journey, my path ahead is finally clearer. I have had several “Aha!” moments.

It’s such a relief! I can bathe on the sand banks once more! 🏖

(That is, until I choose to ride the waves again! But this time, I know I will be a more capable surfer!)

My Personalised Surfboard

I finally designed and made my very own surfboard! (ie my content creation plan and my YouTube and Substack makeover).

(Boy, did I change my mind about the design of my surfboard! 🤪 I tried my best to design a plain and simple, single coloured one, but the only choice, for me, was to create one with a beautiful multi-patterned design, with all, not just some, of the colours of my soul! 🌈)

Like an artist, I finely chiselled away at my board and made many alterations and enhancements along the way.

Finally, I have a beautiful, steady, personally designed surfboard. This time, I know which way I want to surf, and I will be a much more confident surfer!

Now it’s just a matter of learning to ride bigger waves! 😀🌊💙
