Stop right here ✋🏼

What is the first thing you do after waking up and the last activity right before bed? Is it checking the social media sites?📱

Let's talk about social media hygiene. I see mindless scrolling at dinner tables, family rooms, waiting areas and almost everywhere. When do you feel it's affecting your mental health? How do you feel when you over do it?

I personally can't stay out of the digital world for a long period of time as my work revolves around it, but how I do control the hamster wheel, is through mindful usage. I set time slots during my day where I will explore content, engage with my audience and stop right after feeling inspired. The moment I start feeling overwhelmed, I put the device away. Here's a reminder to take a break 😊

Is your content strategy factoring in your unique brand voice? 💬

Do you have a strong brand character that is present in your content marketing?

With a unique voice, branded content evolves as an entity that distinguishes you, creates audience loyalty and authority content.

These are Maya Angelou's words. A poet, whose words used to bring me solace during a very difficult time in my life. A moment when time stood still, going backwards was not an option, and going forward seemed impossible.

Words are instrumental. I don't believe the world should tiptoe around someone just so they don't trigger their traumas. But when you clearly see someone going through the most difficult time of their life, choose to be kind. And if you're not Maya Angelou, please don't give unsolicited advice.

There's some new additions to my Instagram family, so here's a quick recap of who I am 🧚‍♀️

My name is Saniya, and I am a marketing and brand consultant. I graduated with a degree in Graphic Design a long time back 😅 and the first few years of my career were in Design & Branding. I have always been multi-passionate and curious to learn new disciplines. I moved to hardcore marketing and digital strategy in 2016 and have been working for luxury hospitality brands . Hospitality industry will always have my heart. After covid, I decided to explore consultancy work and have been since smitten by remote work. My most recent clients are from the tech industry(RPA) and I've become increasingly interested in intelligent automation ever since.

I live in Dubai, married to an amazing guy and have a 7 year old bookworm. Also, I do love a good cup of coffee ☕️

Your turn? Let's have some intros 😃

Imagine your brand as a person. How would you describe their personality?

21/07/2022

Every single time I open my LinkedIn, successful people are giving subliminal messages of constant exhaustion being a marker of success. On Instagram there is a bombardment of 'rise and grind' and 'hustle harder'.

There is a constant push all the time to do more, and to eventually feel less. Coming from a career in corporate for more than 12 years, in 2020 when I decided to go pave my own path in work, I found a lot of challenges, and one of them was to set boundaries in my professional and personal life. To know when to switch off. Coming from a culture of overwork obsession, I ended up feeling guilty when I wasn't working more, feeling exhausted. 'I work for my own self' almost felt like a sham. But slowly I began realising that I was still getting work done, and finding all this free time to just be. To focus on what I love doing, to find out things about me I never even knew, because I was always occupied with work and not all of that was productive. It takes time to unlearn what you have learnt.

Do you feel annoyed too when you hear someone 'boasting' about compromising their personal life for work?

Falling is easy...it's getting back up that becomes the problem.

When was the last time you decided to rise up from that fall gracefully? It could be literal or conceptual 😄

15/07/2022

It's 41 degrees here in Dubai now...Early mornings or late evenings are the only times one can enjoy a little bit of the fresh air. And I do cherish these little windows of opportunities to be out, and just breathe.

Do you like being indoors or outdoors? I heard the introverts had a blast during the pandemic lockdowns 😅

Content marketing is a long game, and understanding the content marketing funnel is essential to reaching your content goals.

05/07/2022

One of the things I have missed the most whilst working in a 9-6 job (I’ve done that for 12 years) was the freedom to work from anywhere I can, at any time I want. Even though my work had no requirements of me being physically present in the office (Design and later Digital Marketing), yet it was the pre-defined norm, especially in the hospitality industry at that time and working from home was unheard of. I feel the pandemic has really forced people to change their perspectives around a remote/hybrid work model. I work 100% remote now (hence the frequent coffee shop visits). But I do sometimes miss being with my colleagues, having an abrupt chat over the water cooler. What do you prefer?
