Motivational Monday — Inspirational Social Media Content
Project description:
Created as part of Seyi Odewale Foundation's "Motivational Monday" content series, this social media graphic was designed to inspire the audience while reinforcing the foundation's focus on growth, education and possibility.
The design combines a strong motivational message with an image of Temple Grandin to create an educational and inspirational piece that encourages the audience to embrace curiosity, personal growth and different ways of thinking.
My Approach
I used bold typography to make the central message immediately noticeable while keeping the supporting quote and subject information easy to follow. The foundation's purple branding elements were incorporated into the composition to maintain visual consistency, while the photograph adds a human and recognizable element to the story.
Content Goal
Inspiration • Education • Engagement • Brand Awareness

on Saturday i got to speak on social media & content strategy at my first IRL event 🥹
i'm still processing all the emotions but it was amazing to speak at The Retreat by FWDHer.
in my session i talked to the women founders about building a content strategy you can actually sustain.
we went through an exercise to help them ideate content ideas by starting with a "thesis" that helps ground their useful content & then commit to a repeatable practice rhythm
then we moved on to how to execute that useful content using different production levels in mind:
🌱high effort: think an edited video or designed carousel)
🌱medium effort: think a one-take video, repurposed video, picture carousel/photo dump or text or graphic photo + caption)
🌱low effort: think photo with caption, short text post or simple story)
your content shouldn't be built on high-effort posts alone. a mix of effort levels and repurposing is what keeps it sustainable.
the takeaway i left them with: you don't need to post every day. you need one idea, three ways to use it (teach, prove, invite), and a rhythm you can return to when the week gets busy.
this was my first time speaking/teaching like this IRL, and it reinforced what i believe about content: it works best as a practice, not a pressure. 🌻
if you're planning a retreat, workshop, or event and want a speaker on social media & content strategy, i'd love to talk.
and if you're a founder or brand that needs a strategist to build a content practice you can actually sustain, you can book time with me here: https://contra.com/s/m6ZFFBev-the-consult-a-single-strategy-session

A small milestone that means a lot.
Every project, client, lesson, and late night has contributed to this journey. Grateful for everyone who has trusted my work and supported my growth.
Still building. Still learning. Still going.
Congrats
what does a social media strategist do that differs from a social media manager? i'm so glad you asked!
i just shared what scope of work looked like for the 3isfor team when I served as their social media strategist working alongside their social media manager & creative director.
Good work
