About this episode

What if your content didn’t just get attention—but actually got results?

I’m sharing the turning point that made me ditch the high-speed hamster wheel of content creation and finally start marketing in a way that works for me. Spoiler: It didn’t involve more posts, reels, or dancing (thank goodness).

After a moment with my dad during his chemo treatment made me reevaluate how I was spending my time (and what really mattered), I knew there had to be a better way to grow a business than relying on 24-hour stories and random dopamine hits. And there is.

In this episode, you’ll hear…

  • Why I traded dopamine marketing for deeper connections
  • What “depth content” really means (no crying on camera necessary)
  • How evergreen + searchable content becomes your biz’s best investment
  • What the “Big 3” strategy is and how to use it to grow your audience and revenue
  • The one mindset shift that helped me stop scrambling and start selling sustainably
