DBAY (Doing Business as Yourself) is a Planet Andrea breakout room for people who are into living their Human Design experiment who also want to explore possibilities for how to navigate that in a world that maybe isn't ready for you to be that.
I (Andrea) & whoever else steps through this portal are here to brainstorm that w/you & guide you on the tech bits.
Primary Goal: Success, Satisfaction, Peace &/or Delight
Something from nothing. It’s how I roll. 🤷🏻♀️
Yep, Video Sprint being born over in the Doing Business as Yourself FB group atm.
You’re invited :)

Here’s how that happened -
Recently … within the last week, I found myself asking whether there was anyone who might like to do a Video Sprint together - as a way to stir up some content-making energy … for each of us.
Raised hands makes it a thing. People raised their hands, now it’s a thing that’s in motion.
One of the points I want to drive home/model - especially since these are mostly people with inconsistent sacral energy … is how useful it can be to have a library of videos just waiting for repurposing.
Like a closet of clothes, just waiting for you to get dressed up and go out and be seen in them. 🤔 (not a perfect analogy, but leaving it lol)
The coolest part for me so far is in all the revisiting I’m getting to do of my old videos.
There is definitely more than enough stuff already recorded to make the Video Sprint posts with. To use as prompts at least, build a story around perhaps.
Which will free me up to be also participating in the Sprint myself (and able to make new stuff) vs having to create double the amount of videos as the Sprint facilitator (and tiring myself out).
Am also getting to see how spread out all over the place all these videos are 🤦🏻♀️😊
Am actually quite tickled to find the infrastructure set up the way it is on Instagram especially (I set up a foundation that involves 4 accounts last year - I know #overcomplicatemuch??) and there’s also some TikTok potential.
(Mmm gives me the idea to have a tech set-up/refinement Sprint of some kind 🤔)
And then there’s all the stuff I’m finding on YouTube - much of it unlisted, on a couple different channels - created originally for a particular audience … honestly, it’s a gold mine.
There’s also hours of recorded zooms that could be clipped from 🤦🏻♀️
All I could use now is some enthusiastic Planet Andrea “true fan” to wade through it all and pull out 100’s of reels and shorts.
Maybe one day :)
Meanwhile - there will always be Video Sprints 😍
Let’s see if this becomes an evergreen fixture (I think it can) and I remember to come back here and link to it. 🤔😆
Do me a favor and poke me if I haven’t yet? 🤗
Always remember to include links when you can, when it makes sense (and especially in my inbox) so people (I) can find their way with less friction and potential energy spend.
Assuming that’s what they’ve asked or raised their hand to receive - yeah there’s always that balance to strike :)
Appreciate you,
Andrea
I dropped this into Planet Andrea Locals by mistake yesterday- it might be too weird for in here too - if I ever do an actual podcast for this,, might have to restart the numbers higher 😂
Anyway, here’s me waking up and talking mostly to myself yesterday morning 😜🙃
Maybe there’s a nugget or two 🤷🏻♀️ no promises though :)
AWA aka ‘Art With Andrea’, is one of the umbrella ideas I’m floating around with atm that cropped up as I’ve been going through the subscription box contemplation process. Even bought the domain.
This morning (as happens many mornings), I woke up with what felt like crystal clarity around how to possibly move forward with, I guess is, a Collective application (two of my channels are Collective - the conscious ones, number 3 is Tribal) of sharing the stuff that I do/ don’t do - today’s topic was art - and the way that I think about all that.
So that’s what this audio is about. The dots that connected in my head this morning in that ...
As I finally feel my interest and energy for driving deliveries hither and thither around town all day (many days each week)… waning…
And now that I am apparently all the way detoxed off of FB -ie. it’s not the first thing I open in the morning, and sometimes it’s days before I remember to … and then it feels effort-full; I don’t stay for more than a couple minutes (only took 6 or so years 🙄 - whenever I started the Planet Andrea locals community would be when I finally got serious about my exit)…
I seem to be thinking more and more of creative projects again. Instagram helps to stir that pot the best for me, usually.
Though the danger of IG doomscrolling (happily, but nonetheless 🤓) is real - I get soooo lost there.
But something (someone) I bumped into today gave me a lifeline to leave the platform and ultimately brought me here to share my discovery with you.
It’s a tiny ezine for printing ☺️ - or inspiring… should you become more interested in making one than really taking in the content of this ...
This was an unexpected stumble upon 😌
Haven’t bumped into something like this worth keeping/sharing in - it seems like - forever :)
Short, effective video template:

Some further clues (about apps and settings) in the comments below his reel.
Dropping this in here for future experimenting. Or not 🤓
Apparently CanvaPro is another way to generate QR Codes that don’t expire. But here’s a free way I just bumped into - via excel.
Can also see, given the months that have passed since my last one, it’s maybe time for another update from me - if anyone is interested, of course 🤷🏻♀️🙃🙂
Cool either way 😌
