I'm new and find reel creation very frustrating. The instructions are hard to follow. What should I do?

It’s normal to feel overwhelmed at first—there’s a steep learning curve. Take it at your own pace. Don’t rush just to finish a reel; focus on understanding the process. Watch tutorial videos multiple times before attempting the reel. Many tutorials include an on-screen pointer showing exactly where to tap on your phone. Treat reel creation as an activity, not a task—grab some coffee, take your time, and make it enjoyable. If a specific tutorial format isn’t working for you, let your coach know and they can explore alternatives. Remember, the frustration is temporary. With practice, what takes hours now will take minutes later.
