Dealing With Your Own High Expectations

Kayla Lords

Kayla Lords is a freelance sex writer, podcaster, blogger, all-around sex content creating human, and she really likes creating content. As a writer, she focuses on sex and kink primarily on BDSM and power exchange. She works with private clients to write their content and manage their social media, while also co-hosting two podcasts, running a YouTube channel, and managing multiple blogs. Let's just say, she stays busy and wants to keep it that way. Kayla is an international speaker and an award-winning sex blogger. She believes we are stronger together as a community than we are isolated and apart. We all deserve to get paid for the work we do, but until we understand our cumulative power, we'll all wonder if we're "the only one" doing this smutlancing thing.

    Exactly what I needed to read.
    I do have a hard time with the “will anyone care if it doesn’t get done” part because it often sends me into a spiral of “no one cares about my work at all” and ugh.
    This is really good advice tho, I will try to keep it in mind when I become my own worst boss.

      That is DEFINITELY the flip side of that particular question because imposter syndrome, fear, anxiety, pick a reason will keep you from creating content…so be careful when you ask yourself that question!

  2. This is so me. I have a daily priority list that I try to keep manageable, but even then, I don’t always get it done. It’s hard to let myself off the hook and not feel bad, especially when I see others seemingly doing it all. I’m terrible about comparing myself.

    Your points are a great reminder!
