Content with Character
If you're ready to take action, think outside the box, and experiment with some unconventional approaches to content creation and visibility, this is the podcast for you. Content Copywriter, Emily Aborn, is by your side every step of the way and will keep you laughing and learning as you create content with more inspiration and ease. We'll explore the many slices of the visibility pie as we talk content creation through writing, podcasting, speaking, networking, collaborating, and more. This podcast is a catalyst for big ideas and will help you share them with the world in a way that's distinctly YOU. It's time to take the "hard work" out of building character in your content!

Repurposing is for you as a content creator. It saves you time and helps you stop spinning your wheels as you take any one single piece of content and turn it into MORE!
AND in addition to being hugely beneficial to you (and your sanity), it also helps increase your impact and reach others who may not be able to access your original format of content.
Especially when it comes to audio, webinars, work...
"Oh, I already posted that."
"Ya, ya, ya, I already said that!"
"People already know who I am and what I do…"
"People know what I offer and how I work, I already said it."
"I just said it in last week’s email."
"I can't offer that AGAIN, I don’t want to be annoying!"
"How many times do I have to repeat myself!?"
If yo...
Your content can be doing more for you, without you needing to generate and produce more! It can be reaching more people in more ways, all with ease and simplicity. Repurposing can help you save time, energy, head-spinning AND it can uplevel your content with a level of cohesion and congruency.
Things are busy and moving fast. You probably have a lot on your plate. In this episode, it’s my goal to help you enj...
It's time.
It's time for me not to ignore this important topic.
We need to have the talk...
The talk about what it really means to be human and why it's now more important than ever!
In this episode, I share my thoughts (and feelings) on humans vs. robots and why I don't recommend letting their intelligence replace or simulate yours. I share cautions and consid...
The curiosity gap is defined as the space between what someone wants or needs to know and what they know now.
When we introduce elements of curiosity marketing in our content, this gap can create a sense of intrigue, interest, and a desire to lean in and know more.
This episode will help you understand the unique power of curiosity in your marketing, and give you actionable ways to spark more of it throughout your conte...
When asked to choose her FAVORITE or to narrow down options, my dear friend Lisa Zawrotny, host of the Positively Living Podcast often humorously responds, “Don’t make me choooooose!!”
Lisa, like many of us doesn't like being limited in her decisions, put in a box, or forced to do just any one thing. At the same time, Lisa's great at prioritizing and focusing on what matters most, the important stuff...
Are you one of those people who can turn a simple question of how you slept last night into a full-blown story? Or perhaps you wish you possessed the storytelling skill, but you could use a little nudge and some inspiration. You need a little help seeking out stories to share in your business.

In this episode, we’re going to get into a type of story you could and I’d venture to say probably should be sharing more of in your business…

It's happened to me, to friends, to collaborators, and to my clients...
And while "imitation" is supposedly the "sincerest form of flattery" (Oscar Wilde), NO ONE LIKES A COPYCAT!
In this episode, we get into a recent (minor) horror story of my own, talk about why it's so important not to copy and paste, a few ideas on how to avoid being a copycat, and how to decrease th...
Did you know that every Content with Character episode has a similar structure?
I move through each episode as follows: Intro music, a little sample at the beginning, a setup and preview of the concept we'll be getting into, the actual content itself, a brief summary, a preview of next week's episode, and the outro.
Easy peasy for me when I'm building out the outline of my episodes, a...
This week's episode might be slightly different from what you're used to here on the Content with Character podcast. I'm kicking off the month of March 2024 with an inspiration-based/storytelling episode.
There are also ((of course)) a hefty amount of tangibles, actionables, and practicals so you can apply it for yourself!
Today's episode is about finding the sweet spot of immersi...
Working with clients and customers is the ultimate collaboration. And for many of us, the one we encounter most frequently in running our businesses.
If you’ve ever had a bad client experience or a bad subcontractor experience, this episode is for you!

We'll get into how t...
What is it?
How do I fix it?
Can YOU help me fix it?
Those are three very different questions that people ask at different places in their journey. And by people, I mean YOUR people. Depending on what their level of awareness is, your clients are asking these three different questions and you can’t just answer them all or speak to them all at once.
In today’s episode, we’re going to talk about the di...
Remember group projects?
Group projects in school could go really really well, or really really bad. It all depended on who was in your GROUP and how they meshed together. Did you cooperate, communicate, and each pick up some of the workload? Or did everything fall on you or someone else in the group while everyone else sat back and waited for that sweet sweet A+ to fall into their lap without having to lift a...
You make agreements with yourself and others all the time...
"But the most important agreements are the ones you make with yourself. In these agreements, you tell yourself who you are, what you feel, what you believe, and how to behave throughout your life." (paraphrase of a quote from The Four Agreements by Don Miguel Ruiz)
In this episode, buckle up because I’m going to apply the four agreements to ...
Are you in charge of your business' thermostat? Or is someone else that isn't even IN IT in charge of adjusting it from an app far far away?
We choose the temperature, pick the tempo, and choose our duration.
You don’t have to sprint just because someone next to you is running a sprint. You don’t have to choose a marathon, you can walk, you can run - you can even push a baby carriage and walk your d...
One of the ways to learn to drag your feet LESS is to become aware of what your procrastination style is in the first place.
In this episode, we’re going to explore the different types of procrastination so we can start to break unhelpful patterns when it comes to procrastinating in our business.
We talk about the root of procrastination, how it can impact our lives and business, and some practical ways to sta...
Procrastination is our creative response to not wanting to do something, being too busy to get to something, dreading something, and even needing everything to be perfect before doing it or while doing it.
Contrary to common belief, it's not "lazy" and in fact, procrastination takes a hefty amount of emotional, mental, and sometimes physical energy.
In this episode, which is Part I of I...
When I was a little girl, my parents had a bookshelf full of personality, parenting, and relationship books. I was a little bit of an odd child and I liked digging into these people-focused books and figuring out who I was as well and how I could love others in my life better. I loved learning about what made people tick individually, and how we all fit together as a big picture.
One of the books that caught my fancy wa...
An archetype is defined as, "A very typical example of a certain person or thing". A quintessential or textbook example if you will. And while we’re truly one in eight billion and no one can put us in any one box…
Discovering your content creator archetype can help you know your patterns and strengths, as well as avoid pitfalls and speedbumps that get in the way of you connecting with your ideal clients and sh...
