Have you listened to the Too Much Social podcast yet?

I created the pod during July and August so you could stay in touch with your Instagram book promo around the many other demands of the summer, but it’s relevant outside of the holidays too. Listen for Instagram insights, practical tips, and encouraging pep talks, curated especially for writers and authors.

Below is a link to episode 1 of 6. Find all episodes here on Substack, or listen wherever you get your podcasts 👇🏼

🎁 GIFT FOR ALL READERS

FREE LIVE SESSION: Q4 Instagram Intentions, Tues 30th September, 7-8.30pm BST (replay available)

A 90 minute guided call to review where you’re at with your Instagram platform building or book marketing, and to figure out what you want from the last few months of the year.

*Please note this is not a content planning session. Rather, this is an opportunity to think about what you want to achieve by the end of 2025, and gently set some intentions that will give you clarity and guidance in your planning and prioritising over the coming months.

🧖‍♀️The RESET Instagram Series 🧖‍♀️

Every week-day in September.

Ditch the cringe and overwhelm, and feel calmer and more in control of your Instagram! Each weekday in September, members of TMI will receive a short, uplifting email and audio prompt in your inbox to help you feel better about using Instagram.

The daily tasks are tried, tested and proven to help my 121 clients put Instagram back in its place and keep it there!

To take part in the RESET series, upgrade your subscription today. You’re not too late if you’re reading this after the 1st Sept - all members retain access to all RESET resources so you can catch up if you want to.

Every Monday we talk about our plans

Where? In the WHAT ARE YOU POSTING? group chat here on Substack

Why? It’s an invitation to share your posting plans in a warm, encouraging setting for accountability, advice and inspiration. Come along to feel motivated, supported and less alone with your Instagram!

If you’d benefit from this weekly access to accountability, community inspiration, and advice, become a member by upgrading your subscription.

🪄Content Create-alongs

The CCAL dates for September are:

Tuesday 2nd September, 12-1pm GMT

Tuesday 15th September, 12-1pm GMT

Members: scroll down for the link to register and receive the links for the calls.


If you’re wondering what Content Create-alongs are...

For many writers, Instagram posts fall to the bottom of the to-do list. CCAL sessions offer dedicated time to tackle them and get some posts ticked off your to-do list. We start with a quick check-in to set intentions (or you can simply dive straight in), then regroup at the end to review what we’ve achieved.

If you’d like this kind of accountability and support, you can become a member of TMI by upgrading your subscription.

TRAINING: Speak Out Like You Mean It On Social Media, with Advocacy Consultant and Mentor,
Siobhan Strode

Friday 26th Sept, 12-1pm BST (replay available)

September is RESET month and my main intention for this month is to challenge those icky, sticky feelings I know some of you still have when it comes to posting on Instagram and other kinds of self-promotion.

Many writers hold back on social media, unsure when or how to share your true opinions. Fear of overstepping, alienating others, or causing hurt leads you to stay silent or water down your words. But this self-censorship feels just as uncomfortable—leaving you disconnected from your values and authenticity.

If that sounds familiar, this session with

Siobhan Strode
is for you. Siobhan is an Advocacy Consultant and Mentor and works with women and gender non-conforming people who want to stop second-guessing and start raising your voices, no matter how raw or messy you sound. She's been on the frontlines from the classroom to the council chamber, from grassroots campaigns to national platforms, and she can help us all start speaking up like we mean it.

You can find out more about Siobhan’s work on her website, and Instagram.

This call is for TMI members only - become a member today by upgrading your subscription and you can get personalised advice that will keep you motivated and focused on your book marketing goals.
