The end of the year is upon us and I am ready to share the most popular blog posts for 2017 on my website this year, but first, let’s talk about the development of the blog over the past year.
Towards the end of 2016, I decided “I really need a blog”. I started to blog consistently for a few months, then, we moved….not once, not twice, but three times. Not only that, I also joined Carol Bush in launching the Healthcare Writer’s Network and my coaching business. I added content to The Social Nurse blog, and therefore, slacked on mine.
Towards mid-summer this year, I realized, I needed to get back to my own blog.
I finally figured out my audience, who I wanted to help, and my mission to coach and help others with their businesses to help grow mine. This year I launched the coaching business and also my virtual assistant business.
At the end of the year, I purchased a Passion Planner and created content for all of 2018!
So be ready.
I am contemplating moving my email list from Mailchimp to ConvertKit so I can offer more and more freebies for YOU!
So, I loved ya 2017. You gave my family so much happiness, but also a lot of tears. We went on a few mini-vacations, tackled our first tent camping adventure (and added more adventures), enjoyed two amazing weddings, an escape to Florida for a week, and made a good living. I had a few close friends/family members diagnosed with cancer and lost a friend to an overdose.
Let’s take a look at what my amazing readers loved this year in my most popular blog posts of 2017.
