    MWH 551 : The Trial Reels Playbook. How To Grow Your Following With Trial Reels (Best and Worst Practices).

    Have you ever told yourself you're going all in on a strategy when, honestly, you're dabbling? In this episode I'm taking radical responsibility for my own Instagram experiment: trial reels. I'll walk you through exactly what they are, how the non-follower toggle works, and the precise playbook the people mastering them are using. One video, 10 to 20 hook variations, drop-off analysis in insights, and the 24-hour rule before you judge a single result. But this episode is about something much bigger than a feature. It's about where your energy actually belongs. I share why stopping a stranger's scroll is a completely different skill from serving the people who already know and trust you, the unedited camera-roll video that got two likes and still opened a real sales conversation, and why accounts with over 100,000 followers can go viral every day and never make a sale. If you're a coach, course creator, practitioner or creative growing your business online, consider this your permission slip. Boring, basic, sustainable content is a strategy. Your energy is expensive. Serve who has been sent, and let the right people find you. Send us Fan Mail This podcast is brought to you by Tracy Harris.

    MWH 550 : The hidden cost of the friendships you actually want

    Hey lovely, this one is a little different. I have been in business for 11 years, and one of the most common things women tell me is that they feel lonely. Building an online business can quietly become an isolating life, especially when whole days pass without a proper conversation with another adult. In this episode I unpack something that has been sitting on my heart. Everybody wants a village, but no one is prepared to be a villager. I share why the R in the F.R.E.S.H FRAMEWORK® (Relationships) is one of the biggest levers for your mental well-being, your nervous system and your business. I talk about the real cost of the friendships and community you actually want, and why being a villager sometimes means being inconvenienced, tired, or generous with your time when you would rather not. I also share two stories I did not plan to tell. A family friend who came to our house every Friday to pray with us while my dad was dying of cancer. And a man from our church who saw my mum and me arguing in a car park and quietly offered to teach me to drive, then went on to teach my husband Karl too. These are the villagers I never forgot. If you want a village, it starts with you. Grab a journal, write down one person you want to be in better relationship with, and ask what you can do for them this week.

    MWH 549 : We're Not Messing Around Anymore, with Angela Dickson

    Entrepreneurial wellness doesn't get spoken about enough, and it should, because you are the person leading your business. If you're not well, you can't enjoy the fruits of it, and you're not really free. In this episode, I sit down with one of my longtime mentees, Angela Dickson of Beauty Business Co, for her third appearance on the podcast. And wow, how her life has changed. Angela shares the defining moment she had around New Year, when she felt a clear invitation to go for more, along with the words she heard in her spirit that told her it was time. We talk about what that decision has cost her, what it's made space for, and why her health became the anchor for all of it. We get into: The nap-time idea that became an AI software product, live within a week16 sales in the first seven days of an offer that runs without herTurning 40, autoimmune disease, and the "be her now" decision that has her 14 kilos lighterBuilding a 26 week work year as a single mum who homeschoolsLetting go of a six year retreat to make room for something newThe Zumba class that became unexpected healingThis one is all about beingness. Because at any moment, we get to redefine how we are being. Come say hi to Angela at beautybusinessco.com.au and @beautybusinessco_ on Instagram. Ready to build your own freedom-filled business?

    MWH 548 : Make It More You: The Message Fix Every Business Owner Needs

    Frameworks are having a moment on Instagram. Every creator has a signature five step method, a proprietary process, a named formula. And as someone who teaches business owners how to build their own IP, I love it. But I need to talk about the cost of getting this wrong. I recently reviewed a mentee's brand new sales page. She has decades of experience in her field. She is a genuine expert. And her sales page read like she had swallowed a copywriting textbook. The magic was gone. Her voice was gone. The oomph was gone. This is happening more and more. Women losing themselves in an attempt to "do it right". Rigid, formula led sales pages. Cookie cutter webinars. Instagram captions that could have been written by anyone. In this episode I share: Why frameworks are still worth using (they are)The exact moment you know you have lost yourself in the formulaMy favourite fix: write like you are talking to one person, keep it fifth gradeHow to get clear on your message first, then choose the framework secondThe one truth that will always sell your beautiful business: youThis one is for the coaches, the course creators, the practitioners and the creatives who want to launch and lead with clarity.

    MWH 546 : You Are Made to Evolve: Why Women in Their 40s and 50s are Choosing to do Business Differently

    I don't talk enough about this, and it is time I did. So many of the women in this community right now, incredibly bright, capable, successful women, are quietly feeling flat. Exhausted. Confused about what is next. They are in a new season of motherhood, womanhood, or business, and the old version of their life does not quite fit anymore. In this episode, I want to give real air time to the in between season. The season where you have come to clarity about what you no longer want to do or who you no longer want to be, but you are not yet sure what is next. I share the conversation I had in Bali this week with a friend who just closed her business (and why my first response to her was congratulations). I talk about how I have reinvented myself over 11 years of business, the time I cut 11 revenue streams in one go, and why I do not believe the version of me today is the version I will be forever. We talk about why change feels scary, why you cannot build an extraordinary life thinking in a mediocre way, and why the season you feel least worthy of investing in support is actually the season you need it the most. This is a podcast and community for freedom makers. The number one thing keeping us stuck from freedom is ourselves. You are made to evolve.

    MWH 545 : The Nine Year Overnight Success Nakita Attard Vassallo on Retention, Consistency and the FRESH Framework

    Nakita Attard Vassallo is an author, the founder of The Mama Manual and the creator of the Freezer Meals Club. She has been inside Freedom Filled® Business Mentorship for two years, and watching her grow has been one of my favourite things to witness. In this episode we talk about Nakita's nine year journey of building a business online, her very first webinar launch, and the 93% to 96% retention rate her membership holds (yes, really). We also unpack the F.R.E.S.H FRAMEWORK®, what living a life you are genuinely proud of actually looks like in real life, and what a Freedom Filled® business gets to feel like when you design it for yourself. If you are a coach, course creator, practitioner, creative or digital service provider who is helping people but has not yet built something scalable, this one is your nudge. The system exists. The support exists. You just have to be willing to begin. Find Nakita on Instagram at @the_mama_manual. Ready to build your own Freedom Filled® Business? Go to tracyharris.co/apply.

    MWH 544 : The $800K Launch I Never Told Anyone About (And Why the Waitlist Made It Happen)

    I had an $800,000 revenue launch and I did not tell anyone about it. I felt like a knob. I thought about the people in my world who would take ten years, or a lifetime, to make that kind of number, and I stayed quiet. I am not staying quiet anymore, because the how of that launch is exactly what you need to hear. It was a waitlist-only launch. No webinar. No masterclass. No challenge. No endless reels. Just a curated list of right-fit women who raised their hand long before the doors opened. In this episode I am walking you through the shift almost no one is making. Your waitlist is not a holding pen. It is not a notification setting. It is an offer, with its own promise, its own positioning, and its own promotional energy. You will hear the mistake I see brilliant women make on Instagram every launch season, the one honest question you need to answer before you promote your list, and the real incentives that turn a passive list into a warm room ready to say yes. I share what the waitlist tells you about your pricing, your messaging, and your bonuses long before you write your sales page. And I share why the businesses growing the fastest right now are not the loudest ones. This is for coaches, course creators, practitioners, creatives, and digital service providers who are ready to launch smarter, not louder.
