Click link to buy I started Chaotiq to support small business owners, organisations, and busy individuals who simply don’t have enough hours in the day. As a mum of

three teenagers, I know firsthand how important it is to find that elusive work life balance. Over the years I’ve worn many hats, Primary School Teacher, Event Manager, Retail Assistant, Receptionist, and school volunteer. Eventually, I found my niche in helping people manage their social media, because let’s face it, most people find it overwhelming. A few years ago, life took an unexpected turn. I was diagnosed with breast cancer and became a single mum at the same time. After taking time off to focus on healing and family, I’ve decided to pivot my business. Instead of offering services, I now sell a guide called Simplify Your Socials — a practical, all-in-one toolkit to help small businesses take control of their social media with ease. It’s everything I used to offer as a service (and more), now packaged into a resource you can use anytime, at your own pace. This guide was created for small business owners who want to feel more confident and in control of their social media. Inside, you’ll find clear explanations, easy-to-use templates, and a simple strategy to help you plan and post with purpose, without the overwhelm. Whether you're just starting out or finally ready to get organised, this is your shortcut to less stress and more clarity online. If you're ready for less chaos and more clarity in your content message me today to order your Simply Your Socials Guide.

Let’s clear this up:
First I have no problem with manifesting.

But it's not going to help you here, using a bunch of random hashtags won’t magically send your post to the explore page, would be nice it did though.

Hashtags can help with visibility, sure if your content already connects.
They can help categorise your post, but they won’t save it from being confusing or inconsistent.

The real secret?

Clarity. Consistency. Actual strategy.
Not 30 random tags and crossed fingers.

Use them with intention, not as a lifeline.

If you want to learn how to use hashtags as part of your overall strategy, check out my new Simplify Your Socials guide and head to the dedicated hashtags section.

There was a time I nearly walked away from it all.

I was going through a divorce and facing a breast cancer diagnosis, at the same time.

Running a business while your world is falling apart behind the scenes felt impossible. I was exhausted, emotionally drained, and questioning whether I had anything left to give. The drive I once had was buried under survival mode. Instead of being home at my computer working, I was watching the tennis while having chemo in hospital (yes that's my feet in pic 🙄)

Instead of quitting though, I put it on hold, as I wasn't ready to give it all up.
Now, slowly I am starting it back up. Step by little step. Not always gracefully. Not always confidently. But I didn’t quit.

And now, I’m proud of that version of me who shows when I can, even if when it's messy and far from perfect.

If you’re in a hard season, please know: it’s okay to pause, it’s okay to fall apart, and it’s okay to not have it all figured out.
You don’t have to be perfect to keep going, you just have to be gentle with yourself and take the next small step.

Your story isn't over yet. 💗

You don’t need this guide if you love being up at 1am editing posts, second guessing every caption, and wondering what the hell to post next.

If chaos is your content strategy - skip it.

If burnout is your love language - ignore this.

But if you’re ready for something different, a strategy that’s actually doable, on your terms, without daily pressure or “hacks” you’ll never use ...

Then yeah.

Simplify Your Socials was made for you.

Built for real life, busy mums, busy women / men - just for real people.

You get to show up imperfectly, and still make it work.

Early feedback is in...

People are loving the ease of use, the content ideas were a hit, templates hit the mark and it was really well organised.

It wasn't all positive, I did release this a while ago to beta testers and a few comments came back that more info was required around content pillars and goals. As a result I added loads more info and examples in on not just these sections but all sections. So as well as more detailed explanations, it also now includes examples.

After being away from my biz and socials for so long I decided to go back to basics. I did an audit on my social profiles: updated bios to clearly reflect the changes I've made to my offers.

After that I did a deep dive into my strategy and plan:
– I reassessed my target audience
– Set new goals
– I refined my content pillars and created a content brainstorm list of post idea
– I created a months worth of content and captions as well as blurbs for various promos
– I scheduled several weeks worth of content (at different times to work out when the best time to post was) and got busy engaging to start rebuilding community

To do all this I actually used my own Simply Your Socials guide. I wanted to see how it worked (and yes I made a few tweaks as a result) and I admit it made a daunting process easy. I love using spreadsheets so I copied the headings from the templates into a spreadsheet and had each page of my spreadsheet a new section, eg one page was biz overview, next was goals, then pillars etc. I found this a really easy way to work with all the data as it's all in the one place. I do print out a monthly calendar as I love writing down when I am scheduling my posts on paper and then adding analytic numbers to it.

By relaunching with purpose, clarity, and consistency, I'm hoping to reconnect authentically and build momentum fast.

Just to be clear, posting every day isn’t a strategy.

It’s just... posting every day.

Let’s be real:
You’re burning time trying to show up daily
Engagement is meh
And you’re still not seeing results

Here’s why:
Posting without a plan is like throwing spaghetti at the wall and hoping it sticks.

Example
You’re a product based biz posting pics of your items every day, no message, no story, no call to action.

But your audience doesn’t know why they need it, how it helps them, or why they should care.

So they scroll right past.

EVERY - SINGLE - TIME!

Consistency is great, but clarity and strategy are better.

Who are you talking to?
What are you trying to say?
What action do you want them to take?

That’s the difference between just posting and posting with purpose.

If you're tired of shouting into the void, it's time to simplify and strategise.

That’s exactly what Simplify Your Socials is here for.

Stumbled across this recently and it deeply resonated with me.

During my battle with breast cancer, I learned the importance of pausing, healing, and allowing myself the grace to rest. Just like butterflies, we need to protect our wings during life's downpours.

It was during my recovery, I slowly created the ""Simplify Your Socials"" guide. A new resource born from the understanding that sometimes, less is more. It's designed to help you navigate social media with clarity and purpose, without the overwhelm.

If you're feeling the weight of the storm, remember: it's okay to rest. When the skies clear, you'll be ready to fly again.

You’re running a business, wearing all the hats and now you’re supposed to magically know what to post, when to post it, and who you’re even posting for?

Let’s be real:
👉 You’re not sure who your audience really is
👉 You don’t know what kind of content “works”
👉 And showing up online feels like shouting into the void

It’s not that you’re bad at social media. You’ve just never been shown a simple way to make it work for you.

You don’t need complicated strategies or fancy apps.

You need clarity, structure, and a way to plan that fits your business.

That’s why I created Simplify Your Socials, a guide and toolkit made specifically for small business owners like you.
Think: practical tips, easy to follow templates, and a no-fuss way to take the stress out of showing up online.

Because marketing your business shouldn’t feel like a full-time job.
