Curiosity Tank

Keep trying, keep iterating, keep the ball bouncing

WOOT WOOT!! I think I've finally found my groove when it comes to creating content for my user research and UX focused newsletter called Fuel Your Curiosity! I've been trying different approaches and I think I found one that is meaningful, helpful, and actionable for my audience AND sustainable for me to produce!

This approach may help some of you as well! I feel like I won the lottery ;)

See, each of my UXR workshops includes some pre-work videos. These set the stage for what's to come and lay a foundation of common understanding.

These videos are repurposed into audio-only files (for students who want to soak it up audibly or on the go) and transcribed (for people who like to read, or mark up the notes, literally).

What works is to identify one topic within the pre-work --- WAIT FOR IT, WAIT FOR IT--- that my current cohort is soaking up at the same time (this mitigates the challenge of the context switching!) into bite-sized, juicy, newsletter-y pieces!

ET VOILA!
It saves time, money, my sanity, and more. We are three for three in this working out terrifically well! Like "unicorns and rainbows" well!

YEA for not giving up!! This was a challenge for me and I am thrilled to have finally found a sustainable solution!!

Moral of the story? KEEP TRYING, KEEP ITERATING, KEEP THE BALL BOUNCING UNTIL YOU FIND WHAT YOU ARE LOOKING FOR!!
