You got your message out. Now, take a breath. In the final episode of this series, Jen Lee shares a message from her heart to your hands about the importance of the "pause."

Key Takeaways:

Linear creation is a trap. It’s time to batch. Why do we insist on starting from scratch with every new piece of content? In the seventh episode of Get Your Message Out, Jen Lee explains why "gear-switching" is the ultimate enemy of efficiency.

Key Takeaways:

• Why the "immaculate delivery" is a myth that freezes creators.
• How to use color, tone, and medium to make your message "pop."

Can you actually sustain your big idea? Host Jen Lee dives into the often-overlooked variable of capacity.

What is at stake if you withhold your voice? We often think of sharing our message as an optional act of self-expression. But what if it’s a remedy for someone else’s loneliness? What if your truth is the key to someone else’s courage?

In the fourth episode of Get Your Message Out, Jen Lee shares a personal look at her early career and the "game we are playing to win." Learn how to identify what goes missing when you stay quiet and how to use that knowledge to fuel your creative journey.

"If I withhold my voice, someone else might also choose to do the same. But if I share my voice, maybe it will inspire someone else to share theirs."

Is your message finding them—or are you just talking to yourself? In this episode, communication strategist Jen Lee tackles the "Where" of communication. It’s easy to assume that because you love newsletters, your audience does too. But what if they’re on TikTok? What if they only have time for a podcast during their commute?

Key Takeaways:

• Identify the "Information Gap": Ask your audience, "How does information find you?"
• The Accessibility Factor: Making your message fit into your listener's current life stage.
• Diversified Vehicles: From email and social media to physical signs on the street.
