I just reached 500 followers on LinkedIn!
So, yesterday I was working on a client's project (a full-on campaign to get at least 1000 people registered for her upcoming webinar by Sunday, 23rd August 2026), while still showing up on my own LinkedIn.
In the midst of work, I went to my email to check a couple of updates, and what did I find?
An email from the Buffer team informing me I had crossed 500 followers on LinkedIn.
Then I went further to check my content analytics, and I found that in the last 90 days, I had crossed 2500 impressions.
These two metrics came on the back of a period when I had two long breaks because I was suffering from impostor syndrome; I fell really ill, and I wasn't so sure what exactly I was doing on LinkedIn.
A period when I haven't done nearly as much as I believe I should have been doing.
Yet 500 people. 500 human beings followed me, following my content.
I am grateful. And I am encouraged to continue on my journey of showing up in spite of and despite the circumstances.
It means my journey of writing to change beliefs and build authority is bearing fruit.
So, to everyone out there about to quit...
