MOTM #573: The Connection Conundrum

On Monday we talked about automating Instagram comments and DM’s, but if you’re not getting any engagement, there’s nothing to automate. If your social media comment section is a ghost town, then I have a 5-part answer that’ll help you reflect on the way you’re showing up online and increase your levels of engagement. After […]

I’m sure you’ve seen one of those posts going around that has some sort of call to action like, “comment the word ‘YES’ and I’ll send you the link!” These creators aren’t sending out links individually, they’ve actually automated their Instagram comments and DMs. It seems like a miracle, especially for those of us who […]

This Throwback Thursday episode is a double whammy—it was initially two episodes that I’m rereleasing as one because if you haven’t heard it yet, then you need to immediately, and if you have already heard, well you need to listen again. This conversation, had with none other than my twin, Laura Jean, is the perfect […]

I spend a lot of time on social media, and I’m sure you do too, so you’ve probably noticed the dumpster-fire that seems to be happening in comment sections everywhere. We all desperately want connection, but it’s turned into anger, judgement, and what-about-ism every time a piece of content exists that isn’t perfectly tailored to […]

Today’s episode features a very special guest: Dr. Uchenna “UC” Ossai. If you don’t already know her, get ready, because you're in for one hell of a treat. I’m bringing today’s episode back from the vault because UC is speaking at #BossUp this year, and if you weren’t already convinced about going, you will be […]

If you’ve never been to a live event, you need to. And it’s not because the information you’ll get there is just too good to pass up (although, that’s certainly a benefit of live events) but there’s another magic you’ll experience entirely when you’re in the same room with other people who are action takers, […]

We talked about Threads on Monday and over there, folks be complaining. In my opinion, at the heart of all that bitching, is unhappiness. Some people are committed to being unhappy, but for the most part, I think people don’t know how to make the things that bring them joy a priority. If something matters […]

Does anyone even know what the hell is happening over on Threads? The Instagram algorithm is somewhat protective, but Threads seems to be showing all content to all people which just leads to a clusterfuck of complainers and trolls. To me, it’s illuminating the larger differences between the creators and consumers of social media. If […]

For this Throwback Thursday episode I wanted to rerelease an episode I recorded about my journey as a PT-turned-online business owner. Monday’s episode was all about how you don’t need to “struggle” in order to be successful, and my story is just one example of that. Struggle has it’s place, but not every story needs […]

For whatever reasons, we—and by we, I mean society—tends to glorify struggling. We see overcoming obstacles as some sort of moral victory and that those who are successful must have struggled in order to get there. Does that mean you *need* to struggle in order to have success? Y’all, of course not. You can go […]
