Small Business Casual
Where small business meets your favorite pair of slippers.
A little quirky, not too buttoned up, one less accessory, ahhh… just right.
Welcome to Small Business Casual, where we focus on designing sustainable, cozy, and thriving businesses tailored to your LIFE. Not the other way around!
From general business and marketing to making sense of the behind-the-scenes chaos, I’m Emily Aborn, your host and Small Business Copywriter!
I’m here to walk alongside you as we make running our businesses less of a roller coaster and more like a scenic train ride (don't forget the snacks!).

Don't Make Me Choose! How to decide what to share and where to show up
When asked to choose her FAVORITE or to narrow down options, my dear friend Lisa Zawrotny, host of the Positively Living Podcast often humorously responds, “Don’t make me choooooose!!”
Lisa, like many of us doesn't like being limited in her decisions, put in a box, or forced to do just any one thing. At the same time, Lisa's great at prioritizing and focusing on what matters most, the important stuff, once she has the clarity.
In today’s episode, we’re going to talk about how to choose what to share in your content and marketing when you have limited time and resources, but an abundance of options!
In this episode, I cover:
- Why choosing matters in the first place (for you and those you're sharing with)
- How to consider where you are now when choosing what to share
- Asking yourself where your people are when choosing what to share
- 5 Actionable ideas for narrowing down what to share
- 2 Questions to ask yourself when deciding where to show up
- Emily's 5 G's of making a decision
- And more!
