    255. Let's Yap About Yapping. What the latest online obsession can teach you about messaging

    It’s time – to yap about yapping.  Now I’ve intentionally waited to record this episode. Because every time something goes properly feral on the internet (as the Jessi Jean $1.2 million Yap Challenge did), I like to observe and also let all the think pieces settle before I add my perspective to the mix.  And if you’re thinking “Tahryn, what the heck are you on about?” – stay with me. In today’s episode of the How I Do Content Podcast, I’m going to tell you more about the latest online obsession, coined “yapping,” and whether you should become a certified yapper yourself.  The online space is divided, so I want to share my thoughts and how it applies to your business AND specifically your messaging.  So let’s yap.

    254. The Subconscious Reasons You Keep Hitting an Income Cap with Jess Pinili

    Everyone loves to go searching for a shiny new strategy – because that’s the reason you keep hitting the same income cap right?! But what if I told you, the problem often isn’t your strategy – it’s YOU.  I know, I know… But after over 7 years in business I’ve watched so many capable, ambitious women do everything right on paper and still not hit their goals.  And the hardest thing to admit (because strategy is always the easiest thing to change) is that the ceiling isn't out there – it's internal. And that’s exactly why I wanted Jess Pinili to join me on today’s episode of the How I Do Content Podcast. Jess is a business strategist, membership founder, and the woman behind my favourite TikTok business audits.  She works at the intersection of business strategy and subconscious identity work – helping women figure out what's actually going on beneath the surface when the strategy should be working but isn't. In this episode we get into the subconscious reasons you keep hitting an income cap and what self-sabotage actually looks like in a high-achieving woman's business (spoiler alert: it's a lot sneakier than you think). This one went deep and I loved every second of it – I think you will too.

    253. 7 Years of The Social Bolt: 7 Lessons from 7 Years in Business

    Seven years ago I put on my wizard cloak and stepped into The Social Bolt for Day 1 of running my own business.  On that day, I fulfilled my dream of becoming a stay-at-home dog mum.

    252. How to Be Unmissable in a Sea of AI Slop

    As soon as you open Instagram or your inbox these days, you’re hit with a tsunami of AI slop.  Every piece of content looks and sounds exactly the same.  And the impact of this sea of AI slop, is that you’re now trying to get the attention of your ideal clients when they are zoning out and disengaging. The long term impact is WORSE because AI Slop will ruin brand reputations. This isn’t fear-mongering either – the data AND consumer behaviour both back it up.  When AI started becoming a thing in 2023, the sentiment was mostly positive. People felt excited to use it, and boy did they ever. But now thanks to overuse and the resulting AI slop fest, consumer enthusiasm and even consumer acceptance for AI-generated content has dropped significantly. So what does this mean for you, the business owner?Well obviously, if you are going to use AI to create your content, proceed with caution. Be aware that your consumers are thinking about this when making purchase decisions, so you need to make sure your content isn’t giving off AI slop vibes. How?  In today’s episode of the How I Do Content Podcast I’m sharing 3 things you can do this week to make sure your content is unmissably, undeniably, un-AI-ably YOU. So let’s get into it.

    251.The behind the scenes story of The Social Bolt + Becoming a Messaging + Marketing Wizard

    After last week’s incredible milestone 250th episode, I had a mid-week freak out about what I should record for episode 251.  Because NGL, I had absolutely nothing planned.  Now I can obviously, quite easily come up with an idea but how do you follow episode 250? Enter Karen – who slid into my DMs and suggested I record a personal episode about my background and who I am now. Which is a great idea (thanks Karen) because not everyone has been here since Day 1 and seeing as next month is my 7th business birthday – I’ve been around for awhile!  So you might not know the Tahryn + The Social Bolt lore – and that’s what I’m going to share with you on today’s episode of the How I Do Content Podcast. My backstory and how I ended up here, running a business and being the messaging + marketing wizard I am today.  So buckle up and let’s begin. WANT MORE?

    250. What 250 Podcast Episodes Taught Me About Marketing, Consistency, and Building a Business That Lasts with Special Guest Host Miish Grixti

    When I started this podcast 5 years ago, I could never imagine how much it would change my business and me as a person. I started it because I was OVER Instagram and being told I had to point and dance in Reels otherwise I’d get left behind.  But it gave me WAY more than just proving those gurus wrong. Because not only did I NOT get left behind, but: I’ve gained so much confidence from using my voice.I’ve interviewed some epic humans, doing epic things – including my ultimate dream guest Samantha Wills I’ve used it as a vehicle to put my messaging into action, episode after episode and as a result have claimed my space as a messaging + marketing wizardAnd obviously, and most importantly, it’s allowed me to grow a loyal group of listeners without whom I never would’ve reached 250 episodes.  So thank you.  To mark the occasion, I handed over the mic to my extra special guest host, Miish Grixti, and we covered everything from how my podcast process has evolved, to what 250 episodes has taught me about consistency, and what I really think about AI's takeover of the online space. So for the 250th-mother-fucking-time – let’s dive in.

    249. Confessions of a Messaging + Marketing Wizard: I hate creating content for Instagram right now.

    I have a confession to make. Even though I’m a messaging + marketing wizard and I love creating content… I hate creating content for Instagram right now. I hate opening Instagram and constantly hearing “AI just killed [insert latest industry] so if you don’t wanna die get on board the AI train.” I hate that every piece of content is about how to use AI to replace tasks that quite frankly don’t need AI. I hate that so much content is so obviously created by AI – the same recycled content ideas, the same writing style. It’s got to the point where I have so much resistance to even opening the app, let alone creating content for it. And it’s not because I don’t know what to post. I have millions of brilliant ideas sitting in my notes app. But sometimes I feel like “what’s the point?!” So in today’s episode of the How I Do Content Podcast I’m giving you an insight into what I’m doing about this, in case you find yourself in the same slump.

    248. Visibility for Introverts: How to Grow a Business (Without Burning Out or Becoming an Extrovert) with Katherine Mackenzie-Smith

    The online business world has a visibility problem.  And I don't mean there's not enough of it. I mean the advice is almost always the same: post every day, go live, do the Reels, build in public, be seen. If you're someone who reads that list and feels your nervous system quietly revolt – you're not broken.  You just haven't found your version of visibility yet. Because here's the thing – getting in front of the right people doesn't require you to be loud. It doesn't require you to perform. And it definitely doesn't require you to become someone you're not. That's exactly what today's episode of the How I Do Content Podcast is about. My guest today has been in business for 11 years and has watched every era of online business come and go – the influencer coach era, the girlboss era, the information age, and now whatever the hell we're calling the AI era one.  And what she's landed on is a way of building a business that's designed around your energy, your strengths, and the way you actually work best. Katherine Mackenzie-Smith is an award-winning business coach, host of the Cozy Business with Katherine podcast, and creator of the Cozy Business Quest. She helps introverted, highly sensitive, and neurodivergent solopreneurs stop spinning in circles, pick a clear direction, and follow through, without burning out or becoming someone they're not. In this episode we get into what a cozy business actually means (because it's probably not what you think), how to get visible in a way that doesn't make you want to hide under a blanket, and why right now might actually be the best time ever to be the quieter voice in the room. So let's dive in.
