Content Calendar Planning for June

Some upcoming dates you might post about or share with your clients in June:

I was googling June holidays and found there are a ton of random dedicated “holidays” I’ve never heard of that I thought would be fun to share. The month starts off with “Dare Day” on June 1st – a day dedicated to challenge someone, and do a dare. So hey coaches, maybe a good day to dare those clients to do something brave! 🙂

Some other dates I’ll highlight in case you want to incorporate them into your social media: National Forgiveness Week (First week of June), Leave the Office Early Day (June 3), World Environment Day (June 5), World Oceans Day (June 8), Upsy Daisy Day (June 8), Best Friends Day (June 8), National Weed Your Garden Day (June 13), Nature Photography Day (June 15), Fathers Day (June 16), World Refugee Day (June 20), World Productivity Day (June 20), First Day of Summer (June 20), International Yoga Day (June 21), Take Your Dog to Work Day (June 21), and Let It Go Day (June 23).

Have a great month, and enjoy the hope that springs brings. You can read previous months’ Coaching Industry News Roundup here.
