Getting My Business Ready For My Maternity Leave
Baby number two is on the way, which means big changes for my business.

In this episode of the podcast, I talk about:

Will Social Media Marketing Look Different in 2024? My Big Predictions
It’s that special time of year when we look into the future of social media and digital marketing with my big predictions.
Some of my 2023 predictions were perfect, and some others not so much. But that’s the nature of the quickly evolving world of digital marketing. I can’t get it right all the time, but it’s definitely fun giving it a try.
Things move so quickly online that you have to plan for the future while being ready to adjust for everything you can’t plan for (do I need to mention how quickly AI became a part of our lives as marketers in 2023?).
With 2024 right around the corner and off the heels of hosting my in-person retreat, I have some exciting predictions to share for the new year, with a big emphasis on reconnecting with what makes us uniquely human and the evolution of community building and engagement.
In this episode of the podcast, I talk about:
The major differences between tactics and strategies My 2023 predictions: The hits and misses The crossroads of Artificial Intelligence and our humanity Walmart’s Experiential Marketing Mean Girls Moment Replacing the word audience with something more relatable Redefining social media My word for 2024 …And More!

You Don’t Have To Post 10 Times A Day
Let’s talk about a myth that’s been disguising itself as social media advice: The more you post, the faster you’ll grow on social media.
I’m here to tell you it’s not true. The numbers don’t support posting 10 times a day as a fast track to social media success.
Can you imagine if that was true? Just think how much content overload we would be in if that were true. Thankfully, after working in social media for decades now, I can confirm that there is a simpler, less time-intensive way to grow on social.
Let’s talk about the three main ways I use to help my clients and my biz grow without falling for the content overload myth.
In this episode of the podcast, I talk about:
Time-focused vs Output-focused content strategy Creating an experience with your content The true nature of social media Favorite Starbucks order type of relationships Finding non-competitor collaborators What to do before you start running ads …And More!

Navigating Trendy Content As A Business Owner
Do you like to jump on the latest social media trends? Social media is meant to be fun and, well, social. So, the popularity and evolution of trends make so much sense.
As brands, we see everyone else having fun, so why can’t we join in? Does our content have to be all about business?

In today’s episode, let’s talk about the importance of aligning trends with your brand values, avoiding cringe-worthy moments, and staying true to your audience. We'll even touch on the ethical considerations of leveraging trends and the potential pitfalls to watch out for.
So, whether you're a content creator, business owner, or just want to nerd out on the history and evolution of trending content, this episode is for you.
In this episode of the podcast, I talk about:
Pre-social media trend chasing The decentralization of content creation The new rules for trending content Why trends have a shorter life expectancy The secret ingredient that makes a trend a trend How to know if jumping on a trend is right for your business The danger of going all-in on trending content …And More!
