148 | Finding Balance: Creating Impactful Content Amidst a Busy Life

Hey friend! If you’ve ever looked at your content calendar and thought, “I really don’t want to do this today,” this episode is for you. Between client work, family life, and managing your health, it can feel like creating content is one more thing on your list. But here’s the truth: when we avoid the very thing that helps us reach the people God’s placed in our path, we’re not just pausing our business—we’re limiting our impact. In today’s episode, I’m sharing how to create a Content Creation Day that helps you stay consistent without burning out. You’ll learn practical steps to plan, prep, and batch your content so you can build momentum, simplify your systems, and show up for your audience with peace and purpose. What’s inside today’s episode: Why your content is more than marketing—it’s ministry in motion How to find your creative sweet spot and plan your content around it The importance of prep work (and how to avoid distractions like planner layouts and cozy cardigans) What to include in your Content Creation Day prep checklist How to refresh old content using Google Analytics, your podcast stats, and ChatGPT Why batching your content is an act of obedience and stewardship Why this matters for you: As a Christian business owner, your content isn’t just a to-do list item—it’s a way to serve. When you batch and plan intentionally, you free up your mind, reclaim your time, and show up consistently for the people God’s called you to help. 00:00 Introduction and Personal Struggles 00:44 The Importance of Content Creation 02:17 Finding Your Creative Sweet Spot 03:32 The Importance of Preparation 06:17 Batching and Repurposing Content 07:26 Refreshing Old Content 09:08 Final Thoughts and Encouragement 10:37 Giveaway Announcement and Conclusion Michele’s Links: Link to the blog post: https://misstask.com/content-creation-day-checklist/ DFY Content Repurposing: https://misstask.com/content-repurposing-starter-pack FREE RESOURCE: Organic Content Creation Workflow and Content Organization https://misstask.com/content-creation-workflow Visit the website: https://misstask.com Q4 2025 Podcast Review Giveaway 🎉 I'm giving away FREE content repurposing every month through the end of 2025!
