Quick Question, Be Honest. When Did You Last Publish A Blog Post?

If your answer is “don’t make me say it out loud,” you, my friend, are in excellent company.

I’ve had stretches where my last post was so old it felt like it belonged in a little museum display. I’d open my site, see the date, and instantly want to write a formal apology letter to the internet. (In all honestly, that is why I removed publish dates from my blog in the first place.)

Then I remembered something important.

Nobody is sitting there mad at me. They’re not keeping score. They are busy also. Some are just wondering “can she help me with this thing I’m dealing with?”

So if you’re coming back after a dry spell, you don’t need a dramatic “I’m back” post or to explain your absence. You don’t need to over-share your entire life and nervous system history.

You just need to restart.

Write the post your people need now. Not the post you “should’ve” written months ago.

For example, if you are a wellness coach and you haven’t posted since last spring. You do not need a confession post titled “Where I’ve been.” You can publish “How to restart your routines after falling off for weeks” and be instantly relevant again.

That’s Clarity. What do they need today. What do you want to say, right now. What’s the simplest next step.

Your blog isn’t a diary. It’s a helpful library. You can add a new book anytime.
