This series, I'm sharing insights from my book Work/Life Flywheel.


In this episode, I explain why niching down is important and share a practical exercise to help you identify your focus area.


Chapter Summary:


  • Writing is one of the critical skills for the future of work.
  • The scale of the online audience for your product, service, or ideas is limitless.
  • Digital writing allows you the opportunity to rapidly test and iterate your ideas.
  • No-code technology means it's never been easier to produce a digital product.
  • The secret to success as a digital writer, launching a new business or pivoting your career, is carving a niche.
  • Being known for something specific is a career accelerant, particularly when combined with something you're genuinely passionate about.
  • Going niche feels uncomfortable, but, by experimenting, you'll find something that resonates with you and your audience.
