    018 // My Origin Story & How to Navigate a Major Pivot in Your Business

    So this is basically my most requested episode ever, and I've been putting it off for years because I was actually trying to distance myself from my old career on purpose. But you asked for it, so here we are: the full story of how I went from being a registered dietitian working in eating disorder care to becoming a website copywriter who helps service providers sound like actual humans online! I DON'T KNOW WHO NEEDS TO HEAR THIS, BUT With the right messaging and enough time, you absolutely can successfully transition careers, pivot to new offers, or basically do whatever you want in business — even if it's a seemingly unrelated field. SKIM THE SCRIPT – How I went from dietitian to copywriter – Why I spent five years ignoring ALL the signs that I wanted to do something else – How websites became my actual hobby while I was supposed to be seeing clients – My first advice: develop a "why not" mentality and get messy with experimentation – How I went from $900 websites to being booked out months in advance – Why I niched down to health and wellness providers first — then un-niched on purpose – Advice #2: cultivate a regular practice of working on your business, not just in it – Why I secretly stopped being a website designer for four months before I told anyone – How to give context when you're making a pivot (and why you don't have to build in public if you don't want to) LINKS – Check out my portfolio MORE FROM HELLO & CO  — Visit my website at hellococreative.com — Follow @idkwhoneedsthispod on Instagram — Find me on Instagram\ — Follow me on Threads (you’re welcome in advance) — Subscribe to The Rough Draft newsletter (your Thursday morning shot of brain espresso) — Have a request or idea for a future episode?

    017 // Going Viral Won't Fix Your Conversion Problem with Jocelyn from Scale Your Resonance

    Jocelyn, from Scale Your Resonance, and I have been doing that thing where you orbit the same people on the internet forever. But we're finally here, and we're posing a simple question for you: What if you don't actually NEED more visibility?  Because tons of people think they need 10K more followers when what they actually need is to convert better with the people who are already watching. If you've been spending loads of time and energy trying to go viral, we think that's distracting you from the whole point of your business — making sales!  I DON’T KNOW WHO NEEDS TO HEAR THIS, BUT All of the visibility and the likes and the followers and the "OMG your content is just so good and relatable" — none of that matters if your stuff isn't also converting those people into your actual paying clients. SKIM THE SCRIPT  – Why you probably don't need as much visibility as you think you do – What happens when you have 350K followers but aren't converting – The difference between extra credit content and authority content – Creating content with legs instead of just chasing the algorithm – Your hook matters more than any viral formula – Knowing what people expect from each platform is key WHERE TO FIND JOCELYN – Follow Jocelyn on Instagram, Threads, and Tiktok – Jocelyn's website – Check out her courses Case Study Sprint and Best Seller MORE FROM HELLO & CO  — Visit my website at hellococreative.com — Follow @idkwhoneedsthispod on Instagram — Find me on Instagram — Follow me on Threads (you’re welcome in advance) — Subscribe to The Rough Draft newsletter (your Thursday morning shot of brain espresso) — Have a request or idea for a future episode?

Whether you've been putting off your website redesign or you're just nosy and want to know how a website copywriter does her own site, you're gonna want to tune in!

    015 // I Have a New Brand and 4,000 Things to Say About It — BTS of my Rebrand and Website Launch

    I finally did it... I rebranded! And not like the "I'm gonna tweak my fonts for the third time this year" rebrand I've done before. I mean a real, hired-it-out, this-is-actually-different rebrand.  In this first-ever solo episode, I go into why I absolutely needed to rebrand, why I hired it out (even though I used to do brand design), how I picked my designer, and what the entire process looked like from start to finish.  So if you've been thinking of rebranding and are feeling curious about what the process is like, you're gonna want to listen! I DON’T KNOW WHO NEEDS TO HEAR THIS, BUT I have a new brand and a new website, and I have 4,000 things to say about all of it. SKIM THE SCRIPT  – Why I rebranded multiple times in the first few years of business  – The difference between wanting to rebrand and actually needing to rebrand – Signs it's time: when consistency becomes impossible, and marketing feels like wearing someone else's shoes – How I chose my brand designer (and why I specifically wanted someone who'd never met me) – The realistic timeline for a rebrand – What happens during the brand design process – Why taking time to reflect before starting made all the difference – What my new brand actually looks like and why it finally feels like me LINKS – Follow Kristina (my brand designer) @gemcreativeco – Read the rebrand BTS on the blog MORE FROM HELLO & CO  — Visit my website at hellococreative.com — Follow @idkwhoneedsthispod on Instagram — Find me on Instagram — Follow me on Threads (you’re welcome in advance) — Subscribe to The Rough Draft newsletter (your Thursday morning shot of brain espresso) — Have a request or idea for a future episode?

    013 // The Tech Bros Are Lying About SEO with Julie of PW Designs

She's a website designer and SEO expert who sees SEO as simply learning how to be a good matchmaker between your content and the people who need to find it. We're talking about why SEO feels so intimidating, the basic tools you need to get started, and why you should probably be flipping your content creation strategy. I DON'T KNOW WHO NEEDS TO HEAR THIS, BUT SEO is just not as hard as all the tech bros on the internet are making it seem. SKIM THE SCRIPT – Where to start with SEO if you're brand new  – The difference between Google Search Console, Google Analytics, and Google Business Profile – How to set up the tools you need  – Why SEO gives you another way for people to find you that doesn't require babysitting social media every day – Passive scrolling vs. active searching (and why that matters for your business) – How SEO makes social media fun again by taking the pressure off constant posting – Julie's content strategy: create long-form first, repurpose to five places, show up less – Why you're probably wasting time on six-second reels when you could be writing blog posts WHERE TO FIND JULIE – Follow Julie on Instagram – Follow Julie on Threads – Julie's website –  Check out her Pinterest course – Grab her freebie, SEO Monitoring Tools Guide BONUS RESOURCE — Blog Post: The 10-Minute Showit Sitemap Trick For Boosting SEO MORE FROM HELLO & CO  — Visit my website at hellococreative.com — Follow @idkwhoneedsthispod on Instagram — Find me on Instagram — Follow me on Threads (you’re welcome in advance) — Subscribe to The Rough Draft newsletter (your Thursday morning shot of brain espresso) — Have a request or idea for a future episode?

    014 // What Web Designers Don't Tell You About SEO with Sara Does SEO

    Sara and I have been internet friends for what feels like forever. She's one of my emotional support Threads girlies and also happens to be an SEO expert who's seen all the website platform drama. So naturally, we had to sit down and talk about the question that won't die on Threads: "Which website platform should I choose for SEO?"  We're getting into what truly matters when it comes to your website platform, why you can't just hire someone for "basic SEO setup" and call it a day, and how to make sure your shiny new website doesn't tank your Google rankings. I DON'T KNOW WHO NEEDS TO HEAR THIS, BUT If you're hiring out your SEO without asking any questions, you're going to have a bad time. SKIM THE SCRIPT – Why there's no "perfect" website platform for SEO – Why you need to understand your website platform — not just hire someone who uses it – The WordPress myth that needs to die  – What "basic SEO setup" usually means  – The specific questions you need to ask before hiring a web designer – Why your existing rankings are at serious risk during a website redesign – The heading situation on Showit that makes Sara want to scream – When SEO actually isn't worth your time and money WHERE TO FIND SARA – Follow Sara on Instagram – Follow Sara on Threads – Sara's website – Check out her course Rank for Revenue MORE FROM HELLO & CO  — Visit my website at hellococreative.com — Follow @idkwhoneedsthispod on Instagram — Find me on Instagram — Follow me on Threads (you’re welcome in advance) — Subscribe to The Rough Draft newsletter (your Thursday morning shot of brain espresso) — Have a request or idea for a future episode?

    011 // Becoming Rich Beyond Revenue with Hannah Wardenburg of The Wealth Collective

    Hannah from The Wealth Collaborative is here, and she's about to call out the thing nobody wants to admit — a lot of us are playing business instead of actually building businesses. If you've been chasing seven-figure goals just because it sounds good, reinvesting every dollar back into your business because someone told you that's what you're "supposed" to do, or quietly wondering why you're burnt out despite hitting all your revenue targets... this episode is for you (and also maybe for past me, because ouch). We're talking about why "rich beyond revenue" should be the goal we're all chasing and how to reverse-engineer your life goals instead of setting flashy, random numbers that don't even serve you. I DON’T KNOW WHO NEEDS TO HEAR THIS, BUT If you're more worried about making money than thinking about what you're paying to make that money, you might just be playing business. SKIM THE SCRIPT  – "Playing business" vs. being strategic – The difference between chasing revenue and building personal wealth – Why soooo many women entrepreneurs are burned out and broke despite hitting their goals – What it costs you when you reinvest everything back into the business – Why business is meant to be boring (and fun at the same time) – How to know if you actually need that seven-figure year or if you're just saying it – The real ROI of hiring — buying back time vs. making more money – Treating bad investments like tuition instead of failures (Can I get this tattooed in my brain?) – What it means to be "rich beyond revenue" and part of the new money movement WHERE TO FIND HANNAH – Follow Hannah on Instagram – Listen to the New Money Podcast  – Hannah's website MORE FROM HELLO & CO — Visit my website at hellococreative.com — Follow @idkwhoneedsthispod on Instagram — Find me on Instagram — Follow me on Threads (you’re welcome in advance) — Subscribe to The Rough Draft newsletter (your Thursday morning shot of brain espresso) — Have a request or idea for a future episode?

    012 // Making a Career Change Without the Drama with Priscilla of The Kinfolk Creative

    Priscilla and I have basically the same origin story — we're both therapist/dietitian-turned-copywriters who used to work in eating disorder recovery and now help people say the damn thing online. (Isn't the universe a strange place???) In this episode, we're talking about pivoting without burning your whole life down, what it's like to slowly let go of one identity while building another, and why sometimes the smallest shifts matter way more than the dramatic ones. I DON'T KNOW WHO NEEDS TO HEAR THIS, BUT Sometimes it is so much better to opt for softer, gentler, and smaller changes in your business than trying to conduct a huge, giant pivot of everything all at once. SKIM THE SCRIPT – Why Priscilla went from helping people untangle their feelings to helping them untangle their message – The tension between "I'm a therapist" and "I'm a copywriter" (and why both can be true) – Why burning it all down isn't always the move... even when you really want to – The guilt of "wasting" years of school and training on something you no longer want to do – Why incremental change is actually harder than just ripping the band-aid off – The difference between "this isn't right for me" and "I just don't want to deal with my inbox today" – How to make space for the next version of yourself while respecting who you used to be – Why a pivot can be as small as a new boundary, a tone shift, or dropping one offer – The permission to evolve without rebranding your whole existence WHERE TO FIND PRISCILLA – Follow Priscilla on Instagram – Subscribe to Priscilla's Substack – Subscribe to her newsletter – Priscilla's website MORE FROM HELLO & CO  — Visit my website at hellococreative.com — Follow @idkwhoneedsthispod on Instagram — Find me on Instagram — Follow me on Threads (you’re welcome in advance) — Subscribe to The Rough Draft newsletter (your Thursday morning shot of brain espresso) — Have a request or idea for a future episode?
