Instagram stories are my favorite place to re-engage an audience. So today, I'm taking you through the strategies that actually work for me and my clients. Because here's the thing: the average story view rate drops 20% with every tap. So if you want your stories to drive people to your DMs and drive sales, you need to be intentional.

Your stories aren't a place to talk at your audience. Instead, you want to chat with them. This looks like using the engagement tools Instagram provides and actually following through in the DMs, even if it's just one person that shows up at first. Beyond simply using the tools, I'm telling you exactly how I like to use them. Because a question box is simply less effective if it's used to push complicated questions your audience doesn't feel like answering! And their are ways to use these tools that actually prompt the algorithm to share your stories with more people.

So we'll be covering strategies that will awaken your current audience and get more eyes on your stories in general. Have you ever thought about treating your stories the same way you would a reel? Have you given any thought to pacing and what you can do to mitigate audience fatigue? If not, now is the time.

From story sequencing to pacing tips, there are simple ways you can take the guessing game out of stories. And soon enough, you'll actually be building the community you long for.

In today's episode, we're chatting about:

• Things I'm seeing that are NOT working on Instagram stories
• Why you should start story sequencing
• My engagement-bait tip for the first story you share each day
• The side CTA strategy
• Campaign specific tips

Stop wasting time and finally get your content working for you! In this episode, I'm breaking down the exact method I use to cut my content creation time in half. No more blank slates, no more overthinking, just a system that actually fits your life and your goals. If you're tired of feeling scattered or like you're reinventing the wheel every month, this is your permission slip to do things differently.

Let's get honest: most of your content time is being eaten up by indecision and ad hoc ideas. I'll show you how to ditch the chaos and build a content calendar that's not just another template you'll abandon, but a tool you'll actually use because it's built for your energy, your schedule, and your brand. We're talking about making your content categories work for you, so you never have to wonder, "Is this on brand?" again.

I'll walk you through my step-by-step process for setting up an evergreen content calendar, choosing a posting cadence that's realistic (not just aspirational), and templatizing a third of your posts so you can stop overcomplicating and start executing. Plus, you'll learn how to make sure your Instagram, emails, podcast, and YouTube are all speaking the same language—hello, marketing harmony.

By the end, you'll have a repeatable, sanity-saving system that lets you plan a month of content in 30 minutes flat. No more creative burnout, no more second-guessing, just a clear path to showing up consistently and confidently.

In this episode, we're chatting about:

• Why your content creation feels so hard (and how to make it easy)

If you're constantly asking yourself "what do they want me to say?" instead of "what do I want to share?" you might be building a fake community instead of a genuine one. This episode will help you understand the difference and why it matters for your business.

Today I'm diving deep into the psychology behind content creation and why so many of us end up people-pleasing our way to an audience that doesn't actually stick around. We're talking about the difference between having spectators who clap and leave versus active participants who buy into your essence and stay through your pivots, mistakes, and boundary-setting.

Here's the truth: scared people don't become well-known, and boring people don't get paid. If you're trying to make everyone love you and never want to upset anyone, you'll never stand out or get the visibility you're craving. Your brain literally filters out sameness. It only pays attention to emotion, polarity, and what's different!

I'm breaking down why we cater to fake communities (spoiler: it's often about that inner child need for validation and safety), how to spot whether your community is genuine or performative, and what to do if you realize you've been building the wrong kind of following. Plus, I'm sharing the mindset shifts you need to make if you want to attract people who will stick with you for the long haul.

• The difference between audience and community
• How to spot a fake community
• The psychology behind people-pleasing content
• What makes a genuine community stick around through pivots, mistakes, and changes in your business
• How to start building real connection by detaching from metrics

If you're tired of spending every Monday scrambling to create content for the week or feeling like you're constantly behind on your marketing, this episode will completely transform how you approach content creation.

Today I'm sharing my Marketing Marathon framework, which allows me to create an entire month's worth of content across 6 different platforms in just 3 focused days. Batching content is a way of working smarter, not harder and it doesn't need to be exhausting.

I used to do content creation weekly, dedicating every Monday to marketing, and while it worked for a while, I started hitting roadblocks when I wanted to get more creative or when I had travel or time off. Instead of forcing a system that wasn't working, I analyzed what was actually causing the bottlenecks and created a solution that fits my current season of business.

The key to this framework is preparation. I never show up to ideate during my Marketing Marathon. I come with content topics already collected throughout the month, a calendar strategy for Instagram, custom templates from my Sales Studio team, and a clear plan for what gets done on which day. This allows me to focus purely on execution, which is why I can record five podcast episodes back-to-back without breaking a sweat.

I'm breaking down the exact 3-day structure: Day 1 for video and audio recording (highest energy), Day 2 for Instagram content creation (medium energy), and Day 3 for writing and scheduling (lowest energy). Plus, I'm sharing all the prep work that makes this possible and why separating ideation from creation is absolutely crucial.

• Why weekly content creation was burning me out
• The 3-day Marketing Marathon structure
• The preparation that makes this framework possible
• Why ideation and execution must be separated
• How custom templates and delegation through Sales Studio makes the design process seamless and fast

If you're exhausted from trying to be everywhere online or frustrated that your content isn't converting despite being on multiple platforms, this episode is for you. And it might be the most important framework you implement this year!

Today I'm introducing the Media Mapping Method, which is the evolution of my platform personalities framework that I shared almost 2 years ago. This isn't about working harder or creating more content. It's about working smarter by giving each platform or feature a specific role in moving people toward your conversion goals.

The biggest mistake I see is people either burning themselves out trying to be on every platform with the same energy, or just repurposing the same post everywhere and wondering why nothing's working. The truth is, you need to leverage multiple modes and methods, whether that's using different features on one platform or strategically using multiple platforms to initiate different conversations.

I'm breaking down the 5 categories of the Media Mapping Method: Credibility, Culture, Connection, Concepts, and Character. Each category serves a different purpose in your marketing ecosystem, attracts different types of audiences, and moves people through your funnel in unique ways. Plus, I'm sharing my exact media map, both my current multi-platform approach and what it looked like when I was only using Instagram.

• The 5 categories of the Media Mapping Method
• Why repurposing the same content everywhere is killing your conversions
• The difference between Character and Connection content
• My exact media map breakdown
• How to implement this framework even if you're only using one platform

If you're frustrated because your content isn't performing despite having great expertise and valuable insights to share, you can make a few simple swaps to address the issue. The problem isn't your knowledge, it's that you're using outdated content approaches and treating Instagram like it's your email list.

Today I'm giving you specific content swaps that will take your posts from basic to scroll-stopping, because here's the truth: you can't just repurpose content across platforms and expect it to work. Every platform has a different purpose and people go there expecting different things. When you try to make your Instagram posts do the job of your emails or podcast episodes, everything suffers.

I'm breaking down the exact swaps I use with my media mapping framework to transform generic topics into platform-native content that actually converts. From connection-focused posts that go beyond "here's my morning routine" to credibility content that does more than just share client screenshots, these swaps will help you create content that feels fresh, specific, and engaging.

The reality is that many of you think you're bad at content creation, but you're actually just being lazy with your content strategy. You're stuck in a repurposing cycle that's making you work harder, not smarter, because content that doesn't perform means you have to create two to three times more of it to get the same results.

• How to make trend-based content actually valuable
• The credibility content upgrade
