UPDATE: There is now a video of this podcast episode. What can you learn from Tom Holland about using Instagram positively? Is it just a time and money suck that encourages comparison syndrome, or should we copy King Holly to be financially healthier and happier?
I have to defer to Tom and his 40m+ followers on this one: I’m happy to admit when someone knows more about an area than I do! I still wanted to share this topic with you, not as an Instagram “guru” myself, but as a guide to how a big name can still act responsibly.
What about the part we play ourselves though? If you love building a following on Instagram or chilling out on IG, how you can take responsibility for your spending at the same time?
There’s lots of reasons why everyone loves Spider-Man and Tom Holland, and some of them include how to use social media to create superfans. Entertainment isn’t a waste of your time or money if you know how to choose your spending priorities.

If you need a microphone whatever your profession or hobby, I use the Samson Q2U.
If you’re interested in podcasting, I use Spreaker for my hosting.
The mailing list functions thanks to email service provider ConvertKit (affiliate link).
I invested in the annual plan (which nets a discount on paying monthly). This is because when I start a project, I like to commit to seeing my goal through, so paying upfront ensured I wouldn’t quit emailing blog readers after a week!
You can start with a free plan though if you’re really not sure where you’re headed, or you’re technology shy (affiliate link). I find ConvertKit very easy to use though despite setting up automations and sequences and all that fancy jazz.
Many of the images on the blog are thanks to photographer and content extraordinaire Kayla Marie Butler.
Kayla offers a package of stock photos and marketing resources so that busy entrepreneurs have the power to quickly create content that boosts their traffic, leads and profits:
Kayla does offer free stock photos for anyone shy of investing in the future just yet. Or it’s possible to buy individual bundles of her photos from the Ivory Mix Stock Photo Shop. Kayla breaks these into categories, so that it’s easy to just buy stock photography for business and finance brands for example.
