    Episode 164: Are You a Fit for SEO School?

    Episode Summary In this episode, I walk through exactly who SEO School is designed for and how to decide if it’s actually a good fit for you. I share a few personal updates, including finally feeling like I’m on the other side of a long health journey and experimenting with using a Whoop band to better understand my recovery and training data. I also talk through some recent business updates, including changes to my discovery call process and the fact that I’m currently at capacity with my done-for-you services. From there, I dive into SEO School. This is the 10th cohort, and I’ve made a few structural changes based on what I’ve learned from running the program over the past several rounds. I also explain how I’ve been rethinking where SEO School fits inside my business. Instead of building my business around the course, I’m now making sure the course fits within the broader ecosystem of my done-for-you work. Most importantly, I walk through the types of people who tend to thrive inside SEO School. If you’re someone who wants to understand how SEO works, implement it yourself, and avoid being taken advantage of by marketing providers, this episode will help you decide if this program aligns with what you need right now.

    Episode 163: Updates and Revelations About My Signature Offer

    Episode Summary In this episode, I share a personal and business update after taking my birthday off and celebrating with Shanté, Moose, and a week full of really thoughtful surprises.  From there, I walk through a revelation I recently had about my business. I realized that I had been mentally positioning one of my courses as my signature offer when in reality, my done-for-you services are the true core of my business. That shift helped me rethink how my courses, launches, and schedule fit into the bigger picture of my work. I also talk about the value of having someone ask you the right questions when you’re stuck in your own head, why allowing things to evolve is important in business, and how self-led education can empower people even if they ultimately choose to hire someone to do the work. Topics I Talk About A recap of my birthday week and time off from recordingMy current availability for custom websites and why projects are booking far outUpdates on the upcoming Google Ads course and SEO School launchThe revelation that my signature offer is my done-for-you services, not my coursesWhy I may move SEO School to a once-per-year launchThe value of having someone help you think through business decisionsAllowing your offers and schedule to evolve as your business growsWhy I believe self-led courses help people make better marketing decisions Important Links Join the SEO School WaitlistJoin the Ads Course Waitlist Work with me + learn more!

    Episode 162: My Thoughts on Funnels and Emails for Brick and Mortar Businesses

    Episode Summary In this episode, I share my honest thoughts about funnels and long email nurture sequences for brick and mortar practices, especially in cash based clinics. I explain why I disagree with throwing potential patients into long, diagnosis specific email funnels after they call and do not book. From my perspective, heavy email sequences can feel pushy and misaligned, and they often ignore the real root issue which is usually unclear pricing and incomplete website information. I walk through what I recommend instead: transparent pricing, stronger FAQs, and a short, respectful follow up sequence that builds trust without overwhelming or pressuring people. Topics I Talk About My birthday and 24 hour birthday saleWhy I disagree with long, diagnosis specific email funnels for brick and mortar practicesThe common “shoulder pain funnel” example and why it can feel grimyHow templated 8 to 16 email nurture sequences can frustrate potential patientsThe real reason people call clinics: unclear pricing and unanswered questionsHow being sold to on the phone creates pressure and discomfortWhat I recommend instead: a simple 1 to 3 email follow up sequenceWhy transparency and upfront communication build more trust than aggressive follow upThe importance of having pricing clearly listed on your websiteHow strong FAQs and clear messaging can act as your best funnelWhy touchpoints still matter, but should be ethical and intentionalA real life example from a friend about preferring transparent pricing over sales callsThe idea that investing in your website is more powerful than building heavy funnelsWhy someone’s pain point will still be there without 16 emails reminding them Work with me + learn more!

    Episode 161: Let's Talk About Tech Stacks

    Episode Summary In this episode, I walk you through what my tech stack actually looks like and then flip the conversation on its head. Instead of listing every tool I use, I talk about why you probably don’t need half the tools you think you do. I share how I manage my business simply, why I don’t use popular project management platforms like Notion or ClickUp, and how your tech decisions should reflect your brain and your values, not what’s trending online. I also share a few life updates, including my upcoming birthday sale, how writing class is stretching me creatively, and why I’ve been building Lego flower sets in my office. Topics I Talk About My upcoming birthday sale Building Lego flower sets and leaning into hobbies as a childless adultWorking more than I want to lately and needing to get back to my Brick boundariesWhat people really mean when they ask about your “tech stack”Why you don’t automatically need project management softwareMy strong feelings about Notion, ClickUp, and task-based systems for my brainThe danger of copying someone else’s tech stack just because it works for themWhy simplicity in your tech can be a strategic choice, not a limitationHow I ran my entire PT practice on a very lean tech stackWhy your tech decisions should align with your values and how you function Links Click here to join my newsletter family Work with me + learn more!
