I\u2019ve been on a massive learning curve of what the difference is between reels, stories, highlights, etc and that\u2019s only on one platform - throw in half term along with visiting relatives and you\u2019ve got the perfect recipe for overwhelm.<\/span><\/p><p>\u00a0<\/p><p><span>So what did I do? I reminded myself that, although it\u2019s a fabulous tool for community building, I didn\u2019t set out to work for instagram. I set out to work for myself, doing what I love designing and creating. And once my focus shifted back to that I produced some artwork, which I just so happened to be able to turn into a reel!<\/span><\/p><p>\u00a0<\/p><p><span>So let me ask you - where do you feel you're over complicating things?
