Canva: If you've watched my videos, you will know that I'm a big fan of Canva.  I would go so far as to say that I wouldn't have been able to get this blog up and running without Canva.  It's intuitive and has a ton of templates.  All of the buttons and backgrounds and thumbnails and basically every design element here, was made with Canva! Convert Kit: When you are thinking about launching a new blog, you ask yourself a lot of questions.  Many of the answers involve "I don't know, I can't do this" and then half a sleeve or Oreos.  Convert Kit really helped me resolve a lot of those more technical issues, like how to set up a email subscriber list and manage it.  There are also helpful tutorials on how to set up landing pages, etc.  Very cool company, and all designed to help creators. Check out ConvertKit.
