It comes from the question: “what do I even film?”
Where to get ideas (legally and simply)
- 1Audience questions — comments, DMs, Stories polls
- 2Your fails and insights — “the mistake I made for a year”
- 3Recurring niche pains — top 10 beginner questions
- 4Series — “day 1/7,” “myth vs fact,” “3 ways”
- 5Other people’s viral formats — steal the structure, keep your meaning and experience
It’s not shameful to repeat a topic from a new angle. It’s shameful to wait for unique genius once a month.
Fridge emergency list
When you’re empty:
- break down someone else’s example (ethically, no hate for hate’s sake)
- a 5-point checklist
- “what I do before I hit publish”
- answer one comment in depth
- mistake of the week
The warehouse rule
Park ideas in notes the moment they show up — not when you “sit down to create.” Otherwise they evaporate in the shower.
