Hi there!
If you need to empty your site, we do have a guide for that:
Are you intending that your blog posts should be the first thing people see when they visit your site? If so then I’d possibly suggest setting your front page to show “your latest posts” in the options under Settings > Reading.
That way you can take advantage of your theme (Independent Publisher 2):
https://wordpress.com/theme/independent-publisher-2/With regards to categories, you would first want to create your categories for your posts, in the Posts > Categories section of your site management. Creating the categories will automatically set up pages for those categories, and when you assign a post to one category, it will automatically appear on that category page.
Once the categories are created, you can set up a menu for your site under Appearance > Customize > Menus and add the automatically-created category pages to the menu.
These guides may be helpful for you:
