🌟 Do you regularly set aside time just for you? Time to do something that you love - setting aside those chores, that last email (there’s always one more!) or other commitments.
Maybe you love to get outdoors, gardening, painting, exercising, reading, learning, cooking, whatever it is that makes you happy.
🌟 So whilst we take a break from the course this week why don’t you get outside or get creative? Taking time out can often lead to some great ideas - we’d love to know where you find inspiration this week (let us know in the comments 👇)
If you need a nudge in the right direction to down tools and do something for yourself then why don’t you:
👩 Catch up with friends - oh how we’ve missed seeing people in person!
🧘♀️ Get your body moving with @glofitand50fit or @coasthealthandfitness.
🌱 Get green fingered in the garden - check out @katietownsendgardendesign for tips & ideas.
🚶♀️Take some (more!) walks - take a look at @walkthethames or @wideeyedlondon.
🎸 Get Musical - @theawesomeukuleleacademy is a great place to start.
🧶 Maybe you fancy getting crafty - @funkymakers has plenty of ideas.
🧑🍳 Try something new in the kitchen - @florasfoodandkitchen has lots of recipes for you to try.
If you struggle with setting aside regular time to do the things you enjoy you could always join our #tp67daychallenge and set that as your challenge. Check out the challenge hashtag for more information & to see what others have been up to.
And to all those reopening this week after lock-down we hope you have a wonderful week.

🌟 Have you got time to share?
We know that our TechPixie community is incredibly supportive of one another, always there with a kind word, advice or skills to share. Could we extend that support & kindness to an organisation in need this year?
The Cornavirus pandemic has left many small businesses & charities struggling, often down to the lack of digital skills, not knowing how to take their offering online or serve their customers digitally, many have had to close or let go of staff.
Luckily for them Sherry Coutu has developed a programme, in partnership with BCG Digital Ventures (@bcgdv) & Founders4Schools (@f4sevents), to connect these businesses & charities with digital experts to offer one to one mentoring, workshops & a resource library all for free!
And TechPixies have recently partnered with this new charity venture, @digitalboost.org.uk.
We are hoping that you, our fabulous TechPixies community, will be generous with your time, put your skills to the test & volunteer as a mentor.
Digital Boost will aim to match you with an organisation that you are passionate about, & you can help them thrive. By signing up you will also get the opportunity to connect with a network of experts from top companies in tech, consulting & finance - @google have already pledged staff time.
Digital Boost are looking for experts in digital marketing, content strategy, Facebook Ads, SEO, email marketing, design, branding, website development and more…
If everyone in our community signed up & donated just 1 hour a week we would contribute 31,200 hours in 12 months!
You can register via TechPixies using the link in our bio ☝️
Could you spare some of your time to help an organisation in need & share some of your TechPixies knowledge (or another area of your expertise)?

☝️ Then head to the link in our bio where you can sign up to our transformational course - Social Media Magic. ☝️
But don’t just take our word for it, look at what our TechPixie students have to say ☝️
🌟 We had an incredible week in our Social Media Superhero Bootcamp! We were thrilled to have each and everyone of you who joined us there. What was your biggest takeaway from the week? Let us know in the comments 👇
It’s no coincidence that this week’s life coaching topic on our Social Media Magic Course is reflection as we come to the end of our latest six week round of learning.
It is so important to take time to reflect, so that you can review and acknowledge your progress (& if you’ve been actively partaking in our Bootcamp or studying on our Social Media Magic course you will have #wins to share, so please do!👇).
Take a moment to reflect on your last week/month/quarter and celebrate the progress you have made. These regular reflections and celebrations build confidence and enable you to review and reassess your goals.
🌟TechPixies, what do you now know (about yourself or social media) that you didn’t before you became a TechPixie? 👇

🌟 Are you looking to change careers, return to work or start a business that is flexible around your family?
Lucy (@ljohnstonesocial) joined the TechPixies community in September and has gone on to launch her own social media agency specialising in helping other mums succeed with their online businesses.
Prior to joining TechPixies, Lucy left a long-term career as she knew she needed a change after having her children. In July 2020 she started working on a business idea that would be flexible around childcare. However she was overwhelmed with the large amount of (often conflicting) information she was finding online.
“I just didn’t know where to start. That’s when I came across TechPixies. I signed up for their Social Media Magic course in September and haven’t looked back!”
Lucy is now a Social Media Coach and Manager offering coaching on branding, content creation, platform management, auditing platforms & leveraging the power of Social Media through organic strategies.
“TechPixies have provided me with so much more than amazing training. One of the biggest hurdles there is in becoming a business owner is having the right mindset to keep going, and this is something that TechPixies prioritise. If it hadn’t been for TechPixies, I would not be where I am today. Thank you everyone at TechPixies - you've helped me to change my life.”
🌟 Amazing work Lucy! 🎉 We are thrilled that you joined our TechPixies community & are donning those brave pants daily and thriving! 🥂 We raise a glass to you & celebrate your success with the obligatory @techpixies dance 💃🏽

Have you had to pivot your business offering this last year?
Paula from @pentopeg has.
Pen to Peg is a Fashion Design Consultancy offering garment design & development services to companies that don’t have their own design and technical teams. She also designs & supplies branded promotional products supporting brands from concept to delivery. Indeed, it is Paula you need to thank for the fabulous TechPixie facemasks, headscarves and hankies that she designed and produced for our FAB boxes!
Pen to Peg began as a side-hustle for Paula back in 2016 alongside her work as a corporatewear designer. Towards the end of 2019 she decided to venture out on her own full time and so Pen to Peg was born. However, as for so many, the 2020 coronavirus lockdown saw Paula’s dream business suddenly disappear as the need for corporatewear, workwear and branded garments vanished as everyone was staying at home (in their pj’s & activewear!).
Luckily for Paula (& us!) it was at this time that she came across TechPixies and, as someone who was always keen to learn, develop and grow, she saw an opportunity to add a new string to her bow. She had always wanted to learn how to leverage Social Media for her business and now, not only is she doing that phenomenally well for @pentopeg (go & check out her fabulous puzzle feed - you can certainly see her eye for design coming through!), but she is also offering Social Media Services to others in the design world.
“Techpixies has given me the confidence to follow my dream and set my own business up. Coaching has helped me with self doubt. Taking control of my future and opening up doors by having social media management as an added skill has definitely given me an added string to my creative bow!”
🌟 We have loved being part of your journey Paula and we will be keeping our eyes on the next pieces of your puzzle grid. 🥂 We raise a glass to you and celebrate your success with the obligatory @techpixies dance 💃🏽
What TechPixie products would you like to see Paula designing next? 👇

🌷 🌸 Happy Mother’s Day! 🌸 🌷
Another year brings another lockdown Mothers Day where many of us are still unable to see our families in person which can make this day emotional for us all. We hope that this year some of you may have been able to go for a nice walk with your mum or meet for a natter ‘on a park bench’! Whatever you have done today, we hope that it has been a happy day.
We know this day can be hard for some, especially those of you who have lost your mothers, or who haven't been able to have children, but we want you to know that we are sending you all virtual hugs.
And to all you wonderful mothers in our community we hope that you have been thoroughly spoiled today (especially those who have started this year on homeschooling duty!)
What are you up to this evening? Have you got your feet up, relaxing, ready for another supercharged week next week? Or are you sat down planning out your week and goals (did any of you buy the @fullfocusplanner after last week's post?)? We always love to hear from our community, let us know in the comments below 👇👇👇

Don’t know your sales funnels from your lead magnets? Your email automations from your filters? Then you need to get in touch with TechPixie Amy @amygreenvirtualassistant
Amy supports female CEOs with email management systems, campaigns & strategies and she is a whizz when it comes to collating the metrics needed to make informed decisions about your marketing efforts.
Amy is a military wife & after spending seven years at home with her children, she was desperate to return to work, but she wanted to find something flexible to fit around her family. In the summer of 2019 she decided to become a Virtual Assistant. It was slow at first, but at the start of 2020 Amy joined TechPixies & she began to find her flow.
“Techpixies started this whole journey off for me. They made me believe that I could achieve something, just for me. They provided me with skills and information from a practical point of view, but also a mindset and hunger to learn that has enabled me to grow as a person & make decisions in my business that have meant I now contribute to my family income and have work that fits in with family life.”
🌟 Amazing work Amy! 🎉 We are thrilled that you joined our TechPixies community & are donning those brave pants daily! 🥂 We raise a glass to you & celebrate your success with the obligatory @techpixies dance 💃🏽
Give us a 💻 in the comments if you could do with some help with your emails.👇 And who else, like Amy, feels they have to wear their brave pants daily? 👇
