    558: 153 FOLLOWERS IN A YEAR. 121 FOLLOWERS IN A DAY. WHAT CHANGED? (MY 17 DAY INSTAGRAM EXPERIMENT)

    Instagram wasn't broken – it was misaligned. In this episode, I unpack what actually shifted: deleting 1,700 followers, committing to four intentional posts a day, leveraging trial reels, and using Manychat to turn views into movement. This isn't hype or hacks. It's a real-time breakdown of how clarity, consistency, and one focused goal – one sale a day – started compounding fast.

    555: MY REAL-TIME FUNNEL: REELS, STORIES, ADS

In this episode, I'm sharing the exact funnel I'm testing in real time — daily reels, one high-intent story, and a $5 Instagram ad that actually grows your audience (without buying followers). It's scrappy, doable, and built for the one-woman show. If you're stuck on what to post or how to sell without spiraling, this one's for you.

    554: WHAT MOST FUNNELS MISS (AND WHY IT'S COSTING YOU MONEY)

    Your funnel isn't finished at checkout — and if that's where it stops, you're leaving profit on the table. In this episode, I break down the power of back-end marketing and how to turn buyers into repeat customers with simple, strategic touchpoints. From Hello Bars to intentional ad placements & captions inside your course framework, this is how you build a quiet, consistent profit engine that supports your main offer long after the sale.

    553: THE REAL REASON YOUR GOALS AREN'T WORKING – AND WHAT TO DO INSTEAD

    Ditch the vague goals and set one bold, measurable target for your business in 2026. In this episode, I'm breaking down why a single "primary target" creates more clarity, momentum, and results than a list of intentions ever could — and how to actually aim for it.

    Most things don't fail because they were bad ideas — they fail because the season, systems, or support weren't there.
