Draw.io (diagrams.net)
A very useful, free, open sourced tool to draw diagrams. Much better and easier to use for creating flow charts and maps than Figma, has decent typography, and has some very nice grids that show how flows would be presented on a printed page (with ability to change sizes).

Cold Pitch Magic (simonegraceseol.com)
Useful and helpful looking workshop to purchase at some point. It's $45/replay of the event with workshop materials. Put on by Simone Grace Seol and Sam Garcia (who hosts the Regenerative Business podcast)
Bridgy Fed (fed.brid.gy)
Bridgy Fed is a decentralized social network bridge. It connects the fediverse, the web, and Bluesky. If you're on one of these networks, you can use Bridgy Fed to follow people on other networks, see their posts, and reply and like and repost them. Likewise, they'll be able to see you and your posts too.
This looks like it'll be useful in POSSE'ing the site...and to work into webmentions and all that fun stuff.
