I love creating connections and getting to know super cool people on my podcast, over years of different variations of my podcast. Recently, I have been experimenting with how much content I put out, and how many episodes I put out, and I am trying to decide what is crucial in supporting my business and what may be taking up a bit too much of my energy.

In this episode, I talk about:

• Your business should fit YOUR life, not the other way around!
• Does the podcast stir up business or is email where it's at?
• My new favorite thing. And guess what? You’re invited!

What would you do if you woke up one day and your social media accounts were *poof* gone? What would happen to your business?

When Kathleen Oh was deleted from Instagram, with no customer service to call, and no one to help her recover the account, she was scared and hurt. As creators, we often think that it is a mutualistic relationship between us and algorithms, but the truth is everyone on social media can disappear from the platform in a second, and if you have built your business on these platforms that can be a scary thing! (Just think of the great March 2024 social media outage that had influencers shaking for a few hours😶‍🌫️)

• Social media fatigue and burnout
• Substack to the rescue!
• Mental health prioritization over financial gain
• Community engagement and trust
