(Gifts inside) for the most wonderful time of the year 🎄
11 Freebies for you to support your Substack and online curation journey!
Hi Sparkers!
I wanted to round up all the free offers (classes, downloads) I have in one place. I’ve never given some of these away for free before.
I know lots of you are trying to navigate Substack, the overwhelm, the set up, the design, the monetisation and find balance here.
I have some resources to help with that. Growth (both personal, professional and inside your work) is never linear and the work you do today will impact tomorrow and years to come in inexplicable ways.
I’ve also added some brand new gifts you might not have seen to send you some sparkle and joy ahead of the holidays!
You can dive in now or pop them on your to do list for 2026? There’s never any rush - we have time.
If you feel overwhelmed by the list - pick your top 3 and save this post for later?
I’d also LOVE you to share it to Notes with a restack telling your audience about what you downloaded.
This helps more folks can find it and my work in service to you all! My delivery rate at the moment means over 1000 people aren’t getting my emails so if you can help me share these gifts on Notes, I’ll also enter you into a competition to win a day of office hours with me in January where we can chat back and forth about your offers! ✨
Lovely (Free) Gifts for you…

👩🏽🏫 ✨
Audience Alchemy - the blend of the personal the professional and where you meet your audience. I’m so proud of this work. Pre-sale on my new programme opens SOON!
Recorded in 2024, I’m offering this class free to all my readers so you can learn how to be creative here on Substack and kindle your unique voice.
Sometimes it’s nice to zoom out and plan, this class will help you do just that! Recorded in Winter 2024 with the wonderful Aimée Francis who is a professional copywriter.
This one is focussed on how you can use Substack to send your newsletter without bells and whistles - simples! Includes demo about sending from your subscriber tab (so an email without posting to the internet).
If you already know you want to offer a course platform and need to email customers with sequences and reminders, I use podia and I love it. I’ve been a loyal customer for nearly 6 years. They don’t take a cut and I use it for my website design too. This is a walk round the platform I did with my members and I’ve made free for you…
Turn your Instagram into a Substack publication. Some tips to show you how to engage with longer form content creation and use what your love from IG in this hour long class. (Opens in YouTube). Please subscribe there - I’m building a following and it means the world to have you along for the journey.
A Checklist
I’ve updated this one for you and made it a google document so you can make a copy and edit your own as you work through set up and setting up paid subs too. (most suitable for beginners)
And that’s a wrap on my ten free things to say a HUGE thank you to you all for being here, for sharing my work, for working with me this year.
It’s been a beautiful year all in all and I’m excited to be going into deep reflection soon ahead of what I’m sure will be a super sparkly 2026. If you’d like to come to my FREE planning class for 2026, make sure you grab the Substack planner and the link is delivered the next day.
