Build Your Copywriting Business
Creativity vs. Consumption: Are You Overdue for an Unplug? (Episode 253)
29 Oct 2025
OK, if you’re honest with me, I’ll be honest with you: How many podcasts, emails, newsletters, trainings, etc.etc.etc. are on your “to listen/watch/read” list? Last I checked, I had 103 podcast episodes downloaded. Kate told me her Goodreads “want to read” list currently sits at 398 books. Will I listen to some of those podcasts? Absolutely. Will Kate read many of those books? 100%. But there’s always going to be more. Don’t get me wrong, consuming information is necessary! But at a certain point all that consumption can start to feel like just another task you can check off your list. It feels productive. And sometimes it is. And sometimes you space out after listening to the same 30 seconds of the podcast 3x over and realize you “listened” to it … but you didn’t do anything with it. Heck, sometimes I don’t even remember what I just heard. So, Kate and I decided to share our best tips for unplugging on this week’s episode of the Build Your Copywriting Business podcast. Why? Well, sometimes the best thing you can do for your business isn’t reading another marketing or copywriting tip. It’s not downloading another guide. It’s not listening to podcasts (I know, shooting ourselves in the foot a little there …) Sometimes the best thing is turning it all off for a bit and letting your brain breathe. Now excuse me while I go stare out a window for 10 minutes. 😉 ---------------- Mentioned in the Episode Ep. 157: Are You Living in the Gap or the Gain?Avoid Burnout as a Copywriter Related Links 8 Must-Listen Podcasts to Amp Up Your Digital Marketing KnowledgeThe Best Copywriting Courses vs. Waste of Time (and Money!) --------------- Get Free Copywriting Training here
