There's a narrative floating around the online space right now that launches are "dead." And honestly? It's simply not true. Launches aren't dead. What's dead is the outdated strategy people are still trying to force. I recorded this episode because I've had clients sell out their launches last month… and I sold out my mastermind from a free event (yes, the very thing people claim doesn't work anymore). So clearly launching isn't the problem. In this episode, I break down the real story behind all of this: Why selling to cold leads don't convert like they used to How trust, relationships, and warm audiences are the foundation of every high-ticket launch Why you don't have to choose between launching and evergreen The demand-building work you must be doing long before your launch ever begins If you've been feeling discouraged about launching, or you've had a past launch flop and you're scared to try again — this episode will give you the clarity you've been missing. Launches are alive and well. But the strategy? That's what needs to evolve. Tune in and let me show you what's actually working and how to sell out your next launch without burning yourself out or starting from scratch. Connect with me outside the podcast!

The sisters are back and this time they brought a friend! This week, Justine and Kylie chat with Cora Dunham about her running journey and coordinating virtual races. She shares her background in running, detailing her motivation from competitive challenges at her gym and her experience with local fun runs, including the themed "Dirty Wookie" race in Reno. They talk about Cora's passion for event coordination and the "Life of a Runner Girl" virtual 5K/10K she organized, which was inspired by a Taylor Swift album and served as a fundraiser for the mental health organization Still I Run. They finish off by discussing how running support positive mental health, fundraising tactics, and Cora's training for her upcoming first full marathon in Honolulu, while always highlighting the supportive nature of her local running community, the McKellar Run Club.Follow Cora on Instagram @cmoneyescobarSupport the showSubscribe to Running Scared Media wherever you get your podcasts for more episodes!

When someone tells you they can't afford your offer, your brain probably jumps straight to their bank account. But that's not what's really happening. They actually CAN afford it…they're just not sold on your offer. In this week's episode, I'm breaking down the true root of the "I can't afford it" objection and why lowering your price, offering endless payment plans, or changing your offer is only making the problem worse. I talk about: What your leads are actually thinking when they say "I can't afford it" How uncertainty in your energy creates uncertainty in their decision What to shift internally so buyers feel safe saying YES If you want to stop hearing "I can't afford it," this episode will show you exactly where the breakdown is and how to fix it without changing your price, your messaging, or your audience. Because the objection isn't about money. It's about certainty. And that starts with you. Connect with me outside the podcast! Continue the conversation in the Market Like a Boss Facebook group.

The training, the current Pro scene, the race itself, and what 5k / 10k fitness allows you to do makes these the best race distances!
This week, I'm joined by my client Alison for a raw, honest conversation about what's actually happening in the coaching industry — particularly the impact of AI on coaching, and shifting trends. I know so many coaches are wondering: "Is AI going to replace what I do?" "Will people still value coaching when AI is faster, easier, and always available?" "How do I stay relevant when AI can teach anything?" That's exactly what we unpack in this conversation. During the episode, Alison and I dig into: The shifts already happening that nobody is talking about (but should be) Whether clients will start valuing AI support more than human coaching, and what coaches need to understand ASAP The limitations of training your own AI and what it can never replace. If AI has you feeling unsure about your place in the industry, this episode will give you direction, clarity, and a sigh of relief. About Alison: Alison Leigh Simmons is a systems expert with a serious knack for making AI feel accessible and actionable, even for the non-techy people. She teaches business owners how to use AI as a strategic thought partner, not just a content machine or idea generator. As the founder and CEO of Lead Smarter Co, and the creator of the 7 Figure CEO System, her "not bossy, just aggressively helpful" approach helps her clients take fast action and stay on track to achieving their goals.

The episode kicks off with the hosts', touching on the ridiculously short two-day first test match in cricket and the start of the summer, which prompts nostalgic recollections of childhood ice creams, including Zac's lament over paying nearly $5 for a Calipo. In their running weeks recap, Chris reports a managed 39K week, focusing on recovery from a rolled ankle and a heat-impacted progressive long run, while Zac celebrates a strong 66K week—his highest volume since February—which included an important strength-building.This weeks run2pb guest athlete is James Cousins, a dedicated Run2PB athlete who joined in 2023 via a referral from the Inside Running Podcast, starting with Coach Sophie Fitt before moving to Coach Brady. James has been "thriving" under Brady's guidance, with the coach noting he is "very dedicated and diligent, a smart trainer who understands the purpose of workouts." This discipline has translated into serious results, including smashing his personal bests to a fantastic 1:23:25 Half Marathon and a 37:28 10K. The discussion with James begins with his Origin Story and the topics that shaped his running journey. The hosts dive into his initial spark for the sport, the significant setback of recovering from a snapped clavicle in a bike accident, and the mental and physical process of transitioning from surgery to the marathon start line. he hosts also draw a comparison between his sign-up PBs (3:17 Marathon, 1:29 Half) and his recent breakthroughs, asking him to walk listeners through what "clicked" to achieve such drastic time drops.James discusses the most significant benefits and differences he's experienced since moving to a structured coaching environment with Brady, and his philosophy when approaching a tough session, explaining what makes him a "smart trainer." Looking to the future, the hosts challenge James on whether he is currently leaning more towards the speed of the 5K/10K or the endurance challenge of the marathon as he chases the sub-3 goal. The episode concludes with a series of quick-fire questions, covering everything from his current shoe rotation and favourite race he's done so far, to his preference between Ice Cream or Gelato .With thanks to Oat Running our partner, Chris will be gifted some Oat Running Socks.Listeners of the show can get a a 15% discount using "run2pb15" at the check out.

Let's talk about what's really happening in the online space right now. Some people are having their best year ever. Others are struggling to even match last year's numbers. What gives? In this week's episode, I'm breaking down the truth behind why some coaches are thriving in 2025 — while others are feeling the slowdown. Here's the reality: The people who are having strong years are the ones who made relationships their number one priority. Not funnels. Not automation. Not passive income. Real connection. Real depth. Real trust. In this episode, I share: The industry shifts that are separating the thriving businesses from the struggling ones How the rise of AI is changing what clients actually value What premium buyers are looking for right now — and how to deliver it If you've been hearing people say "sales are down" or "no one's buying," you need to listen to this before you take that belief into the new year.

Burnt out from the gym floor. In debt from mentors. On the verge of giving up, but all willing to take one more shot. In this episode, I'm interviewing four FCA clients who all hit $5k-$10k months online within 120 days. None of these trainers were perfect. They all struggled with marketing, sales and systems – but the common thread in their success: they had customized strategy, support and accountability.

In this week's episode, I'm sitting down with my client, Lindsey White, who just experienced her first-ever sold-out launch. We're getting real about the #1 thing that makes launching challenging...and it's not what you think. It's the conviction in your offer. We talk about how Lindsey reignited her excitement weeks before the launch even started, and why that internal shift was the non-negotiable precursor to her external success. We get into the nitty-gritty of: Lindsey's biggest fear going into the launch (and why she was afraid she had no "excuse" this time) How she battled the need for "perfect" content as a social media manager herself The mindset shift from hoping for 3 sales to believing 5 was possible If you've ever felt your excitement for an offer wane, or you're heading into a launch with some doubt, this conversation is your permission slip to do the inner work first.

Let's talk about something most people won't admit out loud… Success feels scary. You think fear of failure is what holds you back — but for many women, it's actually fear of success. That quiet voice that says: "If things are going this well, the other shoe's about to drop." "If I relax, I'll lose it all." "If I'm not fixing a problem… something must be wrong." In this episode, I'm pulling back the curtain on my own experience with fear of success — how I caught myself inventing problems after selling out my mastermind and how I shifted out of it. We'll talk about: Why your brain resists things going well How we subconsciously create "problems" to feel safe What to do when you can't fully enjoy your wins How to spot fear of success before it sabotages your next breakthrough If you've ever hit a milestone and immediately started worrying something bad was coming next, this conversation will hit home.

You are not bad at selling. You're just selling to the wrong people. I know how easy it is to believe you're “bad at sales.” Especially if you're a done-for-you service provider stepping into coaching. You know your offer is powerful. You know you get clients incredible results. But when people don't buy, you start telling yourself you must be the problem. You're not. You're just selling to people with the lowest desire for what you offer. In this week's episode, I'm breaking down: The difference between interest and desire (and why it matters) How to spot leads who will never be ready—no matter how great your offer is The real reason objections like “I can't afford it” come up How to find and attract ready buyers who say yes on the spot If you've been chasing leads who “love your offer” but never buy, this episode will show you how to finally sell to the ones who are ready now.

Stop Fixing What Isn't Broken: Sell the Damn ThingYou don't need another Canva post. You don't need a new offer.You need to stop throwing spaghetti at the wall and actually sell the thing you already built.In this episode, I'm pulling back the curtain on why so many smart, skilled business owners are stuck at $8K months and what's actually keeping them there.(Hint: It's not your pricing. And it's definitely not your lack of talent.)If you're exhausted from creating and re-creating, launching and ghosting, tweaking and second-guessing this one's for you.
Ready to arrive at the start line feeling like a coiled spring instead of a burnt match? Coach Chris Twiggs joins us to lay out a clear, no-nonsense roadmap for the final weeks before race day—why tapering wins races, how to dial in run-walk ratios, and what actually matters for multi-day challenges like Wine & Dine and Dopey. We dig into the simple details that make a huge difference: 30-second walk breaks to avoid late-race fade, practicing your race-day shoes and costume, and treating those early miles as your warm-up after long corral waits.We also tackle the big Disney decisions. Want character photos without wrecking your pace? Train a little faster than necessary and learn to move with awareness—no headphones, head on a swivel, respect wheelchair athletes, and rejoin cleanly after stops. For first-timers, we reset expectations: Disney races are celebrations, not trials. Your proof of fitness is the start line; the race is your victory lap. Add in Chris' best advice for pre-race nerves (talk to your neighbors, get out of your head), plus the rookie mistakes to skip (new shoes, new fuel, all-day park marathons the day before).Then we break down Wine & Dine essentials: expo virtual queue strategy, Brooks collab shoes, 5K/10K/half course updates with better flow and more park time, spectator notes, no time change this year (expect darker miles), and how to make the most of the post-race party—including ticket tips and a gift card reminder. Along the way, we celebrate the community power behind Galloway's coaching and our Tuesday Zooms, where training plans meet real support.If this helped, follow the show, share it with a friend training for Run Disney, and leave a quick review.

If you're serious about building wealth through real estate, you can't afford to ignore the tax side. In this episode, CPA and active investor Sean Graham breaks down how cost segregation and bonus depreciation can save you (and your investors) tens or even hundreds of thousands in taxes—without changing your investment strategy. We cover how to use cost seg the right way, why most CPAs are doing it wrong, and what high earners need to know about the latest tax bill that could bring back 100% bonus depreciation. Whether you're a GP looking to raise smarter or an LP trying to boost after-tax returns, this episode is non-negotiable.Key TakeawaysWhat Cost Segregation Actually Does for YouReclassifies components of a property to accelerate depreciation over 5–15 years instead of 27.5 or 39.Allows investors to take massive deductions in year one—sometimes more than the cash they put into the deal.Creates phantom losses on K-1s that can offset other passive income or gains.Bonus Depreciation: What It Is, and Why It Matters100% bonus depreciation (introduced in 2017) allows investors to deduct qualifying property in year one.It's phased down since 2023 but may return under new legislation.Huge benefit for both LPs and GPs—particularly when paired with proper tax strategy.Using Cost Seg to Raise Capital More EffectivelySmart GPs use depreciation estimates during the raise to attract savvy investors.Many LPs care more about the tax benefits than the projected cash flow.For deals over $1M, cost seg should be factored into your underwriting and pitch.The “Look-Back” Strategy for Missed DepreciationAllows owners to retroactively apply cost segregation—even years after purchase.No need to amend prior tax returns; benefits can be taken in the current year.Especially powerful when strategic timing aligns with real estate professional status.Avoiding Common CPA MistakesMany CPAs aren't familiar with real estate—leading to missed deductions and bad advice.Make sure your tax pro understands real estate-specific strategies like bonus depreciation, short-term rental loopholes, and REPS.Ask the right questions: Do they know how to handle depreciation recapture? Real estate professional status? IRA investing?How to Work with a Cost Segregation Firm the Right WayInvolve a cost seg firm early—before closing—so you can plan ahead and market benefits to investors.Studies typically cost $5K–$10K, but often result in six-figure tax savings.Smaller properties can use a “condensed engineering study” for reduced fees without sacrificing IRS compliance.Connect with SeanMavenCostSeg.com/Blank Connect with MichaelFacebookInstagramYouTubeTikTokResourcesTheFreedomPodcast.com Access the #1 FREE Apartment Investing Course (Apartments 101)
Matt Raad, alongside his wife Liz, is a pioneer in turning digital assets—especially websites—into high-cash-flow, low-risk, location-independent businesses. With 30 years of buy-and-renovate experience in both bricks-and-mortar and online businesses, Matt now teaches beginners and pros how to build income and freedom by acquiring and improving profitable websites, even without tech expertise. At the eBusiness Institute, they've helped thousands transition from 9-to-5 or career burnout into “digital real estate” investing. Matt walks through his unconventional path: from university zoology to owning a manufacturing business, then pivoting to online businesses after enduring years of low cash flow and inventory headaches. He explains why pure online businesses (vs. brick and mortar or physical inventory) offer better margins, less risk, and true freedom—recounting how buying underperforming websites allowed instant access to global markets from a laptop in rural Australia. The “buy and renovate” strategy: how to spot, assess, and grow small cash-flowing websites into greater income using real estate-inspired due diligence and systems honed from physical business deals. Why new investors should skip e-commerce/physical products; instead, start with small, content/affiliate/ad-based sites bought for under $1,000, and practice due diligence on cash flow, traffic, and simple site renovation. The key skills for beginners: building a basic website (WordPress), understanding monetization (ads, affiliates, lead gen), and learning how to investigate financial claims and traffic data before buying—a process Matt's team teaches in free masterclasses. Real-world case studies: from a $400 niche gardening blog turned into $4,000/month, to a portfolio approach that delivers $5K–$10K semi-passive income with less risk and capital than almost any offline business. The lowest-risk, most scalable entry point for career changers, families, or side hustlers who want cash flow without the “big bet” on inventory, rent, or employees. 1. Buying and renovating digital real estate (websites) is a proven shortcut to flexible, location-free income—and is accessible to complete beginners who learn the right skills and start small.2. The number one mistake to avoid: underestimating the complexity, risk, and cash drain of inventory-heavy or brick-and-mortar businesses; digital offers higher margins and exponential leverage for less initial investment.3. Success in online business is replicable—just focus on practical skills (website building, due diligence, simple renovations) and leverage mentors or proven processes, rather than trying to reinvent the wheel. “Websites are the ultimate low-risk side hustle: low startup costs, instant global reach, and no stock or shipping nightmares.” “If you want out of the 9-to-5, start with a small content site (ads/affiliate/lead gen), practice due diligence, and learn by doing—there's no better ROI for beginners.” “Think of websites as digital property—buy below value, renovate for cash flow, and watch the compounding effects add up.” Main site and training: eBusinessInstitute.com.au (masterclasses, free guides) Podcast and success stories: Digital Investors Podcast LinkedIn: Matt Raad Blog & strategies: mattandlizraad.com ✖️✖️✖️✖️
So many coaches are told to market to clients based on revenue. Six-figure earners only. “Serious” business owners only. No one under X dollars allowed. But here's the truth: Revenue doesn't equal commitment. I've met six-figure business owners who treat their business like a side hustle. And I've met women making less who are all in and willing to do whatever it takes. In this week's episode, I'll show you why marketing based on revenue can actually hold you back and how to call in the women who are truly ready (regardless of how much they're making). I talk about: Why money doesn't equal seriousness How you might be accidentally weeding out amazing clients The exact traits you should market to if you want committed clients If you've been tempted to add a “revenue qualifier” to your messaging, listen to this first.

In this week's episode, I talk about: Why trying to “go back” keeps you stuck How to embrace the discomfort of change (even the good kind) The simple mindset shift that will help you stop romanticizing the past and start building your future If you're shifting into coaching, raising your prices, rebranding, or stepping into a new season of business…this conversation will help you stop looking back and start building forward.

What would change in your life if you significantly raised your prices?Some of the most common questions I get are around pricing: how to price and how to raise prices. It can be an emotional topic, fraught with resistance, doubt and fear. “What if my prices are too high and no-one buys”“I'm already hearing ‘I can't afford it' so I can't put my prices up even more”It can bring up subconscious patterns of not feeling worthy of receiving more. It can feel terrifying to add extra zeros onto what we charge for our work. But it's so freaking worth it to figure this one out! I started out charging $5 for my writing gigs! I was so scared to raise my prices. My mind told me ‘no-one will buy!'But I raised them. Little by little. My hands were shaking the first time I sent out an invoice for $3000. I went on to sign many clients into $5k-$17k contracts. The pay off is lifechanging….More income. More time-freedom. More impact. More influence in the communities we care about most. Overcoming the mindset and strategic hurdles to successfully raise your prices and fill your offers is powerful work that will revolutionize the way you do business. Did you know there are 3 areas of your astrology chart which I find so life-changing to tap into the mindset, confidence and aligned strategy that makes raising your prices and successfully signing clients so much easier? I tell you exactly what those 3 parts of your chart are in my new podcast episode - Astrology and Money: The Strategy, Mindset + Messaging to Confidently Raise Your Prices and Sell a $5k-$10k+ High Ticket Offer.I share the astrology and money insights that will unlock ease and success in high ticket marketing, so you can raise your prices with success.

If you keep telling yourself… “I'll market when I have more time…” You're putting your business at risk. Because here's what happens: You serve your clients. You skip your marketing. And 90 days later… you feel the sting. No new leads. No full pipeline. And a sinking feeling that you're stuck with whatever clients you already have. I've been there. And I see my clients fall into this pattern all the time. That's why in this week's episode, I'm breaking down: Why “just time-block better” is NOT the answer The real reason you're prioritizing client work over your own growth What to do instead so you never feel dependent on a single client again If you're ready to stop choosing between pleasing your clients and growing your business, this episode is for you.

When things feel hard, most people freeze. They tell themselves: “This shouldn't feel this way.” “I must be doing something wrong.” “Maybe I'm not cut out for this.” And they back away from the very actions that would move them forward. In this week's episode, I'm calling out the expectations that are keeping you stuck and showing you how to let them go. I discuss: Why your business shouldn't “feel like it used to” How to stay consistent even when you're low on energy The difference between discomfort and misalignment Why waiting to feel 100% before showing up is sabotaging your results If you've been giving yourself ultimatums, putting your success on a timeline, or making “hard” mean “wrong”… This episode will set you free.

If you think making more money means sacrificing more time… Let me ask you this: Who says? That one question changed everything for me. Because I used to believe it too. Back in 2018, I told my coach I'd “settle” for 50K because I didn't have more hours to work. Two kids. 20 hours a week. No bandwidth. And then she said: “Who says?” That question helped me hit 6-figures that same year. And it's the question I want you to answer before you add more to your plate. In this week's episode of the Market Like a Boss podcast, I break down: Why doubling your revenue isn't about working harder Three things I use to grow with less time, not more Why the strategies the industry sells you are actually slowing you down If you've got 20 hours or less and you want to scale without burning out, this one's for you.

If your offer isn't selling as fast as you want, it's not because of your audience. It's not because you need more leads. It's not even because your offer is “wrong.” It's because you're not saying what your people are actually thinking. In this week's episode, I break down the real difference between high-demand offers and ones that fall flat — and it has nothing to do with funnels, launches, or how many followers you have. I talk about: Why expert language is killing your conversions The #1 messaging shift to boost demand instantly A simple exercise to uncover how your best clients actually talk about their desires This one will change how you talk about your offer forever.

In Episode 163 of the Best Coach Ever podcast, we're calling out the all-too-common reality for so many online coaches: grinding 24/7 just to scrape together $5K or $10K months—and still feeling chained to your phone like it owns you. Spoiler alert: if your “business” feels like a hostage situation, this episode is your escape plan.We're breaking down exactly why so many coaches get stuck in this hustle spiral (hint: no systems, no strategy, and a whole lot of spaghetti-at-the-wall tactics) and what actually needs to change so you can scale without trading every waking hour for every dollar. From fixing messy offers to building real lead generation systems and setting boundaries that don't tank your income, this episode is packed with actionable steps to help you finally work less and earn more.If you're tired of feeling like your business will fall apart the second you log off Instagram, consider this your permission slip (and blueprint) to build a business that runs even when you're not glued to your phone.In this episode, we cover:1) Why You're Working 24/7 (for Mediocre Money) [0:00 - 4:52] -How many coaches end up working 8-10 hour days, 7 days a week, just to maintain $5K-$10K months. -The real reason it feels like your business collapses the second you take a day off.2) My Burnout Story & Business Overhaul [4:53 - 9:37] -How 2018 forced a complete restructure that cut my work hours in half (and doubled my income). -Why most coaches are missing the systems and clarity needed to work smarter, not harder.3) Stop Chasing Shiny Objects [9:38 - 14:21] -Why adding more (YouTube, new programs, etc.) won't fix a messy, inefficient business. -How refining what's already in place leads to better results and less work.4) Building Real Lead Generation Systems [14:22 - 19:08] -Why relying solely on Instagram content or cold DMs keeps you in the feast-and-famine cycle. -Three to four dependable lead-gen strategies that bring in clients without constant hustle.5) Strategic Content That Converts [19:09 - 23:55] -How to make every post and story pull its weight so you're not posting aimlessly. -Why having a repeatable content strategy saves hours of stress (and brings in sales).6) Selling Smarter: Offers That Scale [23:56 - 26:42] -How to reduce client load, raise prices, or add scalable offers without working more. -Why throwing together random group programs or offers rarely works (and what to do instead).7) Boundaries That Save Your Business [26:43 - 31:10] -How to take weekends (and nights!) off without losing money or momentum. -Why boundaries + systems = peace of mind, sustainable growth, and no more burnout.8) Final Thoughts & The Path Forward [31:11 - End] -Why building systems and strategy, not more hours, is the key to six- and multi-six-figure growth. -How private coaching inside my program helps you implement all of this without guesswork.Connect with Lynette:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/lynettemarieh Fitness Coaching Business Accelerator: https://fcbaprogram.comThe Wellness CEO Mastermind: https://wcmprogram.com
Let's talk about what no one prepares you for… Selling coaching after years of done-for-you services feels different. Because it is. And if you're a DFY provider shifting into coaching—and wondering why things feel clunky—you're not alone. In this week's episode, I'm breaking down: The biggest mindset shift you need when selling coaching What to stop doing (hint: no one cares how many calls they get with you) How to sell the future, not the features Here's the truth: if you've been in the DFY space, you're already a coach. You just haven't been selling it that way. You don't need to start from scratch. You just need to shift how you sell. This episode will show you how. Connect with me outside the podcast!

The “One Big Beautiful Bill” was just signed into law - and it's going to have a real impact on your business and your taxes. In this episode, I'm walking you through what's actually in the bill, clearing up common misconceptions I've seen online, and sharing the changes you need to know as a business owner.We'll talk about updated rules around bonus depreciation, the standard deduction, tax credits on tips, and child-related tax incentives - plus what's going away (hint: EV tax credits). I'm also pulling back the curtain on what this bill signals about the national debt and why I believe long-term tax planning is more important now than ever.
Let's talk about the fear no one wants to admit—especially after you've had success. You've built something real. You've hit milestones. You've created momentum. And yet… you're terrified it could all disappear. In this episode, I'm getting brutally honest about a fear I've coached dozens of successful women through (and one I've felt myself): The fear of losing it all once you've made it Why success often brings more fear, not less What to do when you feel like your best days are behind you I'll never forget what hit me after I crossed six figures—panic. What if I lose this? What if I go backward? If you've been there (or are there right now), you're not alone. Let's talk about what's really going on—and how to stop fear from running the show.

Everyone loves to talk about quarterly planning like it's just a checklist: revisit your goals, double down, push harder. But that's not how I approach it - and honestly, that's not what helps you scale sustainably.In this episode, I'm bringing you behind the scenes of my actual Q3 planning process - what I'm focusing on in my business, what I'm letting go of, and where I'm choosing to spend my time and team energy. You'll hear how I review data, evaluate visibility strategies, and reflect on what's actually working.Because growth isn't just about offers or pricing. It's about alignment, honest reflection, and knowing what to double down on - and what to walk away from. I'm sharing all of it with you here.

We dive into: Why business strategies are cyclical—and how to ride the waves (instead of resisting them) What to focus on before six figures… and what actually moves the needle after Why relationships are still your most profitable asset (no matter what the gurus say) If you're doing “all the right things” and still not growing—it's probably not you. It's your strategy. Let us show you what to shift so scaling starts to feel simple again.

Let's talk about the thing no one wants to admit: Your content is getting crickets… and you're starting to spiral. Engagement is down. Comments are low. Visibility feels nonexistent. And you're wondering... Is anyone even seeing what I'm posting? In this episode, I'm sharing the real reason things feel quiet in your audience—and how to create demand anyway. We'll dive into: The seasonal slow-down no one prepares you for How to define what “quiet” actually means (hint: it's not what you think) Why engagement does NOT equal sales (and what to focus on instead) How to stay in demand—even when it looks like no one is watching If you've been tempted to change your offer, rework your messaging, or change your strategy completely… stop. Before you burn it all down, tune in. Because even when it's quiet, clients are still watching. And they're still buying.

ABOUT THIS EPISODE: In this special Summer Flip Series episode, I'm so excited to share a powerful and honest conversation I had on the Online Business for Christian Women podcast with my dear friend Stefanie Gass. We're diving deep into the truth behind what really creates long-term success in online business—refining your messaging, trusting your path, and giving yourself permission to fully own your genius. I open up about my journey from PR and blogging to building a multi-million dollar brand, and how messaging clarity + visibility became the foundation of it all. We also talk about the difference between content and messaging, how to make your message move people (and create sales), and why the real transformation begins when you stop trying to be someone else and start fully owning what's already inside you. Plus, I share my favorite visibility tips for landing opportunities before you feel "ready."

Because pain point marketing attracts people who need convincing.” - Julie Solomon “ You do not need more volume. This is not a lead problem because if I dropped a thousand more leads on your lap with you having the same challenge that you currently have, it's just gonna create more problems. So it's not more volume. You need more resonance.” - Julie Solomon RESOURCES: [STOP SELLING LIKE IT'S 2020] If you're a coach or service provider who can't get past $5K–$10K/months and still piecing sales and messaging together manually—this is for you.
