What trend(s) do you think will emerge in 2023?
In 2023, I think we’ll see more businesses prioritizing localization to make their organization more inclusive and accessible to consumers around the world. This will also involve writing less for the needs of SEO and more for the needs and preferences of the people actually reading the content.
On top of that, consumers will continue to seek out brands that match their values. But, they are aware of greenwashing and can sniff out insincere brands. So, we may see smaller businesses that prioritize sustainability and social responsibility grow to meet these demands instead of long-established brands.

If it’s hard for you to switch off after work or maintain a work/life balance, try thinking of it like this instead: You work two jobs a day. One is your regular, professional 9-to-5 career. The other is from 5pm-to-9am at the company of YOU. Both are important to invest in, but neither should really be prioritized or valued over the other. Just think of all the things you could achieve if you started investing the same amount of time and energy you put toward your career in yourself.
