Podcasts about DMS

Fly By Jing is one of the most exciting brands in food today, and we were lucky to have the company's founder, Jing Gao, return to the studio for a great conversation. We talk about the company's incredible trajectory, and how growth (and expansion into new product lines) comes with its own challenges. We also tap into what it's like to make chili crisps in China, and how the yo-yoing tariff dynamic is keeping the company on its toes. I have so much respect for what Jing is building at Fly By Jing.Also on the show we have a great conversation with Hailee Catalano and Chuck Cruz, recorded live at The Bell House. We talk about softboy foods, beach sandwiches, and what the DMs are looking like.Subscribe to This Is TASTE: Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

In a world of instant likes, DMs, and curated perfection, has real love lost its spark? Social Media Killed Romance dives deep into how dating in the digital age has shifted from heartfelt connection to hashtag chemistry. From ghosting and breadcrumbing to public “soft launches” and relationship oversharing, we explore how online culture is rewriting the rules of intimacy. This is the very first episode of TOAM after nearly 3 years of Long Hiatus. Share with a friendJazz credit: Onoychenko_music |Golden Whisper

This one thing only makes sense when you truly understand it and have a plan for it for your business. That one thing is PROFIT. Early on when organic is working and it's just you or a couple of people, profit and reinvesting back into your business is probably far from your mind.

Green-eyed monster? Babe, we've been there and this week, Florence and Reed are dragging jealousy out of the shadows and into the daylight. From obsessively stalking your ex's new boo to side-eyeing your partner's “just a friend,” we're spilling our rawest confessions, messiest moments, and the tips that actually help you stop spiralling. We're talking envy vs jealousy, ex etiquette, and why sometimes (don't lie) you like it when your partner gets a bit possessive. Plus, how to handle friends who trigger you, why boundaries are inward not outward, and the little tricks that stop obsessive thoughts in their tracks. This isn't just “don't be jealous” nonsense - it's honest, unfiltered, and yes, a bit unhinged. Whether you're in a monogamous bubble, navigating non-monogamy, or still creeping your ex's sister's Instagram… this one's for you, curious f**kers. Rate & Review If we've ever made you laugh, cry, or rethink texting your ex at 2am - smash that five star, baby. Want more?

Watch the YouTube video here to see the step-by-step instructions. If you think you have no idea for a digital product, I promise you do — you're just too close to your own skills to see them. The things that feel normal to you could be worth $10, $20, or even $100 to someone else. In this post, you'll learn how to create and sell your first digital product in just one week — without an online store, without complicated tools, and without spending a cent. We'll use four free AI prompts to help you: Find your best-selling product idea Build it in minutes Set up a sales page instantly Promote it without feeling pushy And the best part? You can do all of this using MiloTree's Free Plan, which lets you sell a digital download, offer freebies, and grow your social media followers — all for free. Show Notes: MiloTree FREEBIE: 4 Prompts to Find Your First Product That Is Already in You FREEBIE: 10 Awesome Digital Products You Can Launch This Week Join The Blogger Genius Newsletter Become a Blogger Genius Facebook Group Nadalie Bardo from Your Pin Coach Subscribe to the Blogger Genius Podcast: YouTube iTunes Spotify Why Digital Products Are the Easiest Way to Make Money Online Digital products are perfect for creators, bloggers, and entrepreneurs because: They cost nothing to create — no inventory, shipping, or overhead. They can sell forever — you make it once and sell it 24/7. They position you as an expert — people pay for your knowledge. With the right process, you can go from idea to first Stripe notification in one week. Step 1: Discover Your Hidden Product Idea Open ChatGPT (free version works) and paste in this: Prompt #1 Act as a business idea coach. I want to start selling digital products with no money. Here's my job, my hobbies, and my life experience: [insert yours]. Give me five simple digital product or service ideas I can start this week for free. I'd like ideas that make people money, save them money, save them time, move them toward happiness, move them away from pain, and/or raise their social status. These are your six buying triggers — the psychological reasons people buy. ChatGPT will connect skills you take for granted with problems people will happily pay you to solve. Step 2: Choose the Easiest, Fastest Product to Make From ChatGPT's list, pick something you can create quickly that solves one small but painful problem. If you're unsure, ask ChatGPT to pick the simplest idea with the most customer appeal. Step 3: Create Your Product in Under 10 Minutes Use this second prompt: Prompt #2 Write me a short, high-value checklist or guide that solves [insert problem] in under 10 minutes. Copy the results into: Google Docs → edit → save as PDF, or Canva → choose a free guide template → paste → customize → download as PDF. Step 4: Get Over the Fear of Selling Nervous about putting your product out there? Try this: Prompt #3 Act as my business coach. I'm feeling nervous about selling my product. Write me a short pep talk about why my product is valuable and how sharing it will help people. Read it before you post — it works like a confidence switch. Step 5: Set Up Your Sales Page (Free & Fast) Go to MiloTree.com and sign up for the free plan. Now you can: Click Digital Download in your dashboard. Name your product, set a price (e.g., $14), and write a short description. Upload your PDF. Click Create Sales Page — MiloTree's AI writes it for you. Customize text, colors, and images. Connect your Stripe account for instant payments. MiloTree even delivers your product automatically after purchase. Step 6: Promote Without Feeling Pushy Here's the final prompt: Prompt #4 Act as a social media marketing expert. Give me five short, engaging post ideas to promote this product without sounding pushy, the top 10 places to share it, and a quick pep talk on why consistent promotion is essential. Remember: you're not begging for sales — you're solving problems. 7-Day Plan to Your First Sale Day 1: Use Prompt #1 to brainstorm ideas Day 2: Pick your simplest, most promising idea Day 3: Use Prompt #2 to create your product Day 4: Format it in Google Docs or Canva Day 5: Use Prompt #3, upload to MiloTree, set up sales page Day 6: Use Prompt #4 for marketing ideas Day 7: Share your link everywhere — even in DMs and texts Final Thoughts The only thing standing between you and your first $100 online is starting. Your skills are more valuable than you think — and someone out there is ready to pay for them.

This episode is packed with real insights for coaches, content creators, and entrepreneurs who are ready to stop grinding and start growing with purpose. Learn how a former firefighter-turned-fitness entrepreneur transformed debt and burnout into a thriving online business by leveraging storytelling, strategic systems, and authentic content. Discover practical, proven methods to attract ideal clients, simplify your marketing, and close sales without chasing—so you can build a business that's aligned, impactful, and sustainable.   “ Your message matters, your story matters, and it's time to build a business where you could not only change lives, but make enough money to have the impact and the freedom that you deserve.”   Key points to focus on: Authenticity and Storytelling Drive Business Growth: The speaker emphasizes building a business around your unique story, message, and personality instead of copying generic, aggressive marketing strategies. Predictability Requires Systems: A major turning point in his business was implementing repeatable systems for marketing, sales, and operations.  Messaging is the Foundation of Effective Marketing: Success hinges on communicating the right message to the right people in a way that deeply resonates. Content Should Be Strategic, Not Just Consistent: Posting daily without strategy leads to burnout. Instead, a strategic content ecosystem—anchored by a main social channel, email list, and long-form content (e.g., YouTube or podcast)—maximizes visibility and conversions. Value-Based Sales Are More Effective than Pressure Tactics: Rather than relying on cold DMs or high-pressure sales calls, the speaker advocates for selling through value.  Scale with Simplicity and Leverage: Once the front-end system works, the focus shifts to simplifying the backend—delegating, using SOPs, and leveraging AI tools. This allows business owners to grow while reclaiming their time and avoiding burnout.     Connect with Jason Meland: Email: jason@goliveonlinemastermind.com Website: https://www.growmyvisibility.com/ Instagram: @coachjasonmeland Facebook: Jason Meland - In Demand Coach LinkedIn: Jason Meland

“If we don't reconnect as lovers, everything else suffers.”A plan is nice, until real life shows up.This episode started with a strict schedule: record the podcast, tick the boxes, get it done. Instead, tech failed, parenting drained us, and the space between us felt heavy. What happened next? We scrapped the plan, chose each other, and everything changed.We talk about the slow creep of disconnection in busy seasons, why intimacy is the first thing to go when you're in survival mode, and the kind of generosity that doesn't always look like doing more…it looks like pausing, softening, and letting the truth of the moment lead.It's messy, honest, and proof that sometimes the most productive thing you can do for your relationship is to stop everything and reconnect.

What if color could completely change the way you see the world? This week Margo is joined by Ana Bianchi—artist, designer, illustrator, and now the author of Color Curious, her vibrant new book with Chronicle Books. Ana's lifelong love of color has taken her from children's books to ceramics to joyful, intuitive “color harvesting” everywhere from gardens to street markets. Her work spans disciplines, but the throughline is always color—how it inspires, connects, and transforms. Part visual diary, part creative toolkit, Color Curious is packed with gorgeous photography, illustration, patterns, paintings, ceramics, and colorful bakes. Alongside the images, Ana weaves in her deep curiosity for art history, world cultures, and creative ideas, making it a true celebration of the colorful threads running through everyday life. Margo and Ana discuss: How to train your “color eye” in everyday life Why curiosity is the root of creative confidence Fun, approachable ways to experiment with color (even if you don't consider yourself an artist) How she's turning decades of creative experience into resources like her Color Curious Substack and theCONSULTORY—her creative “ask me anything” help desk for artists and makers Pre-order bonus: Everyone who preorders Color Curious and emails a copy of their receipt to colorcuriousbook@gmail.com or DMs it to Ana on Instagram @AnaLovesColor will receive a link for a private art class with her via Zoom on September 19th.

This week on Get a Heck Yes, I'm joined by Eden Strader — a wedding photographer turned seven-figure business coach who's on a mission to help creatives build businesses that are both wildly profitable and deeply aligned with the life they want to live.Eden knows what it's like to start from scratch, hustle nonstop, and sacrifice weekends — only to realize there's a better way. By age 28, she had transformed her passion into a thriving online business that supports her lifestyle, her creativity, and her sanity. Now, she helps other photographers and creatives do the same through a mix of soul-based brand building, data-driven marketing, clear workflows, and sustainable strategies.In this conversation, Eden gets real about what she would tell business owners if she wasn't worried about hurting their feelings — and trust me, these truth bombs are worth hearing.

When they win, I win. When I win, they win.That's how I approach networking. It's not about “getting in the room”—it's about expanding the room so we can all win together.In this episode of The Jasmine Star Show, I'm pulling back the curtain on how I've intentionally used Instagram to build real relationships with 8-figure founders—relationships that started with zero connections and zero expectations.Here's the deal: people are always asking me, “Jasmine, how did you get into that room? How did you build a network of powerful founders?” And today, I'm breaking it ALL down.But I'm not giving you theory. I'm giving you the actual steps I used. Plus, I'm sharing two real-life examples of women I met on Instagram who are now part of my mastermind and personal network.Here's what you'll learn:The exact 4-step framework I use to build authentic relationships online (Follow.

Episode 106 of Trail Society opens with the hosts catching up after a busy stretch of travel, training, and transitions, sharing experiences from Alaska fast-packing, Wyoming family visits, and runs on hometown singletrack. The conversation then shifts to the Tour de France Femmes avec Zwift, highlighting Pauline Ferrand-Prévot's long-awaited victory and the breadth of her multi-discipline cycling career. While her win came after a calculated, team-guided performance plan that included a 4 kg weight reduction, the hosts discuss how such strategies can raise health concerns, especially in a sport with a history of under-fueling and the belief that “lighter is always better.” They explore the risk that focusing on weight, both in training and in media coverage, can perpetuate unhealthy body standards, particularly for young women who may try to emulate elite athletes without the same medical oversight or resources. The discussion considers how to balance performance optimization with athlete well-being and how coverage could better reflect the complexity of such decisions. The episode also examines new research on self-efficacy and fatigue, showing how endurance limits are influenced by the brain's ability to predict and sustain effort. Studies on subliminal cues suggest that positive mental inputs can extend performance, reframing fatigue as partly a perception-driven process. Listener “Society Slams” bring forward concerns about limited access to women's race coverage, suggestions for scenic, low-altitude trail races ideal for groups, and lighthearted reflections on dream race snacks that don't sit well mid-run. Through these segments, the episode blends athlete health, sports science, and community conversation.

This one may ruffle some (male) feathers, but that's par for the course with Professor Chesko – award-winning communications professor, podcaster, husband, father, and feminist. We talk with him about the manosphere and why men taking advice from other men is such a problem. We're chatting about why (some) men have it all wrong when it comes to women and money, men pursuing women when they don't actually understand or respect women, and men who only date super young women and why. Chesko tells us about his haters and why they call him a “pick me,” but also how he's been able to have productive conversations with some of them in the DMs. We are also going off about all the ridiculous stuff that's considered “gay” in those toxic corners of the Internet, and then we break down some bad behaviors like ghosting, breadcrumbing, and other red flags. Before our guest joins us, Rayna shares two crazy things that happened to her before and on a flight, and Ashley's bachelorettes are beginning.
