Decoding Google SEO: Website Optimization Best Practices for Businesses and Brands with SEO Expert, ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Favour Obasi-ike, MBA, MS⁠Favour emphasizes that Google's search functionality extends beyond keywords, leveraging AI and algorithms like Google Mera to understand user intent and facilitate conversational searches. He explains the importance of a well-structured website with internal linking for optimal search engine optimization (SEO) and visibility. The discussion also highlights the significance of a holistic digital footprint across various platforms (Google, Pinterest, YouTube, TikTok, Amazon) to capture diverse user behaviors, emphasizing that marketing is an investment that yields valuable data for business growth and conversion. Ultimately, we underscore that SEO is foundational and evolving, not being replaced by AI but rather exposed and enhanced by it, and that a strong online presence is crucial for businesses.How has Google's search capability evolved beyond simple keywords?Google has significantly advanced beyond merely matching keywords. It now focuses on understanding the intent behind a user's search, a concept the source refers to as "understanding beyond keywords." This involves recognizing nuances like compound words (e.g., "self-improvement" vs. "self improvement") and tailoring results based on context such as location (e.g., suggesting nearby restaurants if you search for "restaurants to eat"). This deeper understanding is powered by algorithms like Google MUVERA (Multi-Vector Retrieval), which transforms search from a static library of web pages into a more conversational and intuitive experience, aiming to provide exactly what the user is looking for. Favour emphasizes that Google's goal is to anticipate user needs, providing relevant results that lead to an "expected end."What is Google MUVERA and how does it enhance the search experience?Google MUVERA, or Multi-Vector Retrieval, is a new algorithm that significantly enhances Google's ability to understand search intent. Unlike traditional keyword-based searches, MUVERA allows Google to engage in more conversational interactions, retrieving information based on the consistent patterns and themes in a user's search history and behavior. This means Google can provide highly personalized results, similar to how YouTube's algorithm suggests videos based on watch history. He highlights that MUVERA moves Google beyond being just a "library of results" to a "library that turns into conversations," delivering more precise and relevant information.Looking for Business Inquires with ⁠⁠⁠SEO Services?⁠⁠ Book A Call⁠More Resources:>> ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Join our exclusive SEO Marketing community⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠>> ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Latest blogs on SEO optimization and Online Marketing⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠>> ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Book your Complimentary SEO Discovery Call⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠>> ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Book Paid Marketing Consultation Call⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠>> ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Subscribe to We Don't PLAY Podcast⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠>> ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Start Your Email Marketing 14-Day Trial with Flodesk⁠⁠⁠⁠Brands We Love and Support⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Loving Me Beauty | Buy Vegan-based Luxury Products⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Zetvaa | Buy Premium Human Hair Extensions Online⁠

Website Value Enhancement: SEO Tactics for Brands to Stop Doing SEO Backwards - Join SEO Expert, ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Favour Obasi-ike, MBA, MSIn this SEO podcast episode, offers guidance on Search Engine Optimization (SEO), primarily focusing on common mistakes and effective strategies for improving online visibility. It emphasizes the importance of a forward-thinking approach to SEO, contrasting it with "doing SEO backwards," which often involves neglecting website updates, not connecting to Google Search Console, or failing to optimize for technical SEO aspects. Favour highlights the significance of consistent content creation, likening blog posts to "index funds" that yield long-term benefits, and discusses the role of social media platforms like Pinterest in driving traffic and establishing brand trust. Ultimately, the discussion promotes an educational, intentional, and consistent strategy for businesses to be seen, heard, and remembered online.Quick FAQs to answer1. What does "doing SEO backwards" mean, and what are the core principles for doing it correctly?"Doing SEO backwards" refers to common mistakes businesses make that hinder their online visibility and impact. It often involves not updating websites, failing to connect to Google Search Console, neglecting technical SEO, or prioritizing social media posts over foundational website content.Doing SEO correctly, or "forward," means focusing on three key principles:Being Seen (Visibility): Ensuring your website and content are discoverable by search engines and users. This involves consistent content creation, proper indexing, and effective use of keywords.Being Heard (Authority): Becoming a trusted source of information. This is built by consistently providing valuable content that answers user queries and demonstrates expertise, leading to search engines "hearing" your authority on a topic.Being Remembered (Trust & Loyalty): Creating a lasting impression that encourages repeat visits and builds brand loyalty. This is achieved through consistent value delivery, a strong brand presence, and engaging content that resonates with the audience over time.2. What is the significance of consistently publishing blog content, and how does it relate to "index funds"?Consistently publishing blog content is crucial for expanding a website's reach and building long-term organic traffic. The speaker likens blogs to "index funds" in finance:Long-Term Growth: Just as index funds grow over time, each blog post has a lifespan of 24 months, generating impressions and traffic for an extended period. Publishing 52 blogs in a year, for example, creates 1,248 months of potential visibility across those articles.Increased Access Points: Each new blog post acts as a new "door" or "access point" to your website, making it easier for search engines (Google, Bing, ChatGPT, etc.) to discover and index your content. More indexed pages mean more opportunities for users to find you.Access to Resources ⬇️Need ⁠SEO Services⁠?>> ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Join our exclusive SEO Marketing community⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠>> ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Latest blogs on SEO optimization and Online Marketing⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠>> ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Book your Complimentary SEO Discovery Call⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠>> ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Book Paid Marketing Consultation Call⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠>> ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Subscribe to We Don't PLAY Podcast⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠>> ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Invest in Energea Solar Sustainable Energy⁠>> ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Start Your Email Marketing 14-Day Trial with Flodesk⁠>> ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Save 40% on flights, hotels & car rentals with eDreams⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠>> ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Access 50,000 rows of GSC SEO data with SEOGets⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Brands We Love and Support⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Loving Me Beauty | Buy Vegan-based Luxury Products⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠

SEO Explained: Ready to Dominate Artificial Intelligence (AI) Search Results? - Join SEO Expert, ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Favour Obasi-ike, MBA, MSIn this episode, Favour emphasizes that Search Engine Optimization (SEO) is not dead, but rather evolving, particularly with the rise of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in search. They advocate for businesses to dominate AI search results by consistently creating relevant and valuable content that directly answers user questions.Key strategies include optimizing website content for various search platforms like Google and Bing, prioritizing podcasting due to its direct vocal search optimization benefits, and leveraging AI tools like Etheo.co and Notebook LM to identify and address common queries. Ultimately, the goal is to build authority and trust by being the go-to source for answers within a specific niche, ensuring content is easily discoverable across diverse search mediums.What is the core idea behind dominating AI search results?Dominating AI search results isn't about being overbearing or just an "alpha"; it's about "leading by example" and establishing your website as the authoritative source for specific questions within your niche. The goal is to consistently provide the most relevant and comprehensive answers to user queries, ensuring that AI-powered search engines, like Google's AI Overview or ChatGPT, cite your content as the primary source. This dominance is quantified by your content showing up as the direct answer, even in "zero-click" scenarios where users get immediate responses without needing to click through to a website.Is traditional SEO dead in the age of AI?No, traditional SEO is not dead; rather, its methodologies are evolving. The speaker emphasizes that "SEO right now is literally exposing people who don't do SEO at all." While the fundamental principles of visibility and discoverability remain, the "how" of SEO is changing. AI is making it more crucial than ever to have a well-structured online presence, akin to a house with "bricks, walls, windows, and frames." Without proper SEO, a website lacks the fundamental structure to be found and attributed by AI.What are the essential first steps to dominate AI search results?The first and most critical step is to "create content that is going to allow people to find your content on the web." Beyond that, connecting your website to major search consoles like Google Search Console, Bing Webmasters, Yandex, and DuckDuckGo is crucial. These platforms provide insights into "Total Addressable Search Market" (TASM) and help you understand what your target audience is searching for. It also highlights the importance of tools like Etheo.co, which helps identify questions people are asking AI about your business, providing a direct roadmap for content creation.Access to Resources ⬇️Need SEO Services?>> ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Join our exclusive marketing community

Your Comprehensive SEO Checklist for Ultimate Business Growth - Save This Episode For Future Reference with SEO Expert, ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Favour Obasi-ike, MBA, MS⁠In this episode, Favour focuses on Search Engine Optimization (SEO) and its importance for online visibility and business growth. They break down an SEO checklist, emphasizing fundamental elements like website setup with Google Search Console and Bing Webmaster Tools, keyword research, and on-page SEO including image optimization, internal and external linking, and meta descriptions. They also touch upon off-page SEO through platforms like Google Business Profile and the critical role of content SEO in attracting and engaging audiences. The conversation highlights the increasing synergy between SEO and AI, suggesting that structured data and updated content are vital for being referenced by AI agents.What are the fundamental steps for setting up a website for SEO?To effectively set up your website for SEO, the initial and non-negotiable steps involve connecting your website to both Google Search Console and Bing Webmaster Tools. These platforms act as "internet service providers" for search engines, making your website visible, readable, accessible, clickable, and findable.Additionally, generating and submitting a sitemap is essential. The sitemap serves as the "brain" of your website, providing search engines with a structured map of all your pages, including product links, categories, tags, and blog posts, allowing for efficient indexing and visibility.Why is keyword research critical for business growth in SEO?Keyword research is paramount because it allows businesses to prioritize information based on what their target audience is actively searching for, considering both search volume and keyword difficulty.What are the key elements of effective on-page SEO?Effective on-page SEO involves optimizing various elements within your website's pages to improve visibility and user experience. Key elements include:Image Optimization: Compressing images to reduce file size without sacrificing quality (e.g., using tools like compressor.io) and renaming image files with relevant keywords. This improves page load speed, which is crucial for user retention.Internal and External Linking: Strategically incorporating internal links to guide users through your website and external links to relevant, authoritative sources.Meta Descriptions: Crafting compelling meta descriptions for each page, acting as "preview text" to entice users to click from search results.Heading Tags: Utilizing H1, H2, and H3 tags not just for visual hierarchy but also for screen readers and search engine crawlers to understand the structure and main topics of your content.Content Legibility: Ensuring text is easy to read by using appropriate font sizes, breaking up large blocks of text with white space, and incorporating bullet points and bolding for skimability.Access to Resources ⬇️Need SEO Services?>> ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Join our exclusive marketing community

Esta semana comparto el análisis completo después de 4 meses. Con números reales, sospechas sobre las métricas de Substack, y por qué los resends de Flodesk me han cambiado la vida.La semana pasada un suscriptor me escribió preguntando por los cambios en el diseño de la newsletter. Le expliqué mi estrategia híbrida con Substack y Flodesk, y me pidió números reales del experimento.Así que aquí van. Sin filtros y con algunas sospechas que he desarrollado por el camino.Después de 4 meses usando esta combinación, tengo datos suficientes y conclusiones que me han sorprendido. Especialmente sobre la fiabilidad de las métricas de Substack.Lo que realmente hice (importante entenderlo)No es una migración total. Sigo usando Substack, pero ya no para enviar emails.Mi setup actual:* Substack: Plataforma de contenido (podcast, vídeos, como un blog)* Flodesk: Se encarga de todos los envíos de email y automatizaciones* Integración: Los suscriptores de Substack pasan automáticamente a Flodesk* Flujo: Escribo en Substack, adapto para Flodesk, envío desde ahí¿Por qué esta complejidad? Porque Substack sigue siendo increíble para exponerse y atraer suscriptores, pero Flodesk me da un control sobre email marketing que ya no puedo abandonar.Mis sospechas sobre los datos de SubstackCuanto más miro las analíticas de Substack, menos me las creo.Te da datos de envíos, datos de vistas, pero no muestra claramente cuántas personas han abierto los emails. Te mezcla información de forma... sibilina.No hay una tasa de apertura clara. Te dan un porcentaje que mezcla emails con entregas en la APP. ¿Por qué lo hacen tan difícil? ¿Qué no quieren que sepamos?Eso es uno de los motivos por los que la gente termina yéndose a otras plataformas.Los números después de 4 mesesUno de los temores que tuve cuando implementé este sistema fue que las principales métricas sufrieran un descalabro.Lo que he podido observar en este tiempo es que todo se mantuvo de forma estable y he podido explotar algunas opciones extra que aporta Flodesk y que son una bomba.* Tasa de apertura: 41.2% → 42.5% (+1.3pp) * Crecimiento de lista: +124% desde el cambio (el motivo no es directamente por el cambio pero puedo ver que no ha afectado de forma negativa)* CTR promedio en Flodesk: 1.5% * Apertura efectiva con resends: ~60% (ahora te explico qué es esto)El dato más importante: la lista creció 124% y encima he añadido una capa de limpieza brutal con automatizaciones que hacen que mucha gente se dé de baja. La lista está más cualificada que nunca.El descubrimiento que me cambió todo: los resendsEsto ha sido el game changer que no esperaba.Flodesk me permite reenviar los correos a quien no abrió el email original. Resultado: más de un 10% de apertura adicional de promedio.En algunos casos he tenido cerca del 25% extra de aperturas gracias al resend. Seguramente porque el ajuste de asunto ha sido muy bueno o porque el asunto inicial era muy malo.Con esta opción, tengo aperturas cercanas al 60% en la mayoría de emails. Una auténtica barbaridad.Lo que no me gusta. No todo son rosasComo puedes intuir, el camino no ha sido sencillo ni rápido. En el proceso he visto algunas cosas que no me terminan de gustar y algunos peajes que tengo que pagar por mantener este sistema híbrido.* Complejidad operativa: Gestionar dos plataformas es un coñazo. Requiere 30-45 minutos más por envío.* Dependencia de integración: Dependo de que la sincronización automática no falle. Por ahora funciona, pero es un riesgo.* No es gratis: Flodesk tiene un coste (aunque yo tengo un descuento del 50% para ti)Por qué sigo con esta estrategia híbridaQue no sea perfecto no significa que no siga siendo la mejor opción que he probado hasta ahora. Piensa que me estoy beneficiando de lo mejor de una herramienta de crecimiento y gestión de contenido como Substack mientras envío los correos desde una plataforma construida específicamente para eso con mil y un extras que echaba muchísimo de menos.* Mantengo lo mejor de ambos mundos: Simplicidad de Substack para crear + potencia de Flodesk para distribuir* Escalabilidad sin penalizaciones: Puedo crecer sin preocuparme por limitaciones de envíos o usuarios en mi lista. El uso de segmentos también es un antes y después.* Datos reales: Por fin tengo CTR claro, segmentación real, métricas que importan* Automatizaciones: Workflows, formularios, segmentación... cosas que en Substack son un sueñoPara quién tiene sentido este cambioSi tienes más de 1,000 suscriptores y vas en serio, te recomiendo probarlo.Con esa audiencia ya puedes sacarle partido a crear formularios propios, segmentar usuarios, generar workflows donde si el usuario hace una cosa se le envía un email, si hace otra cosa se le envía otro...También si quieres mantener el control total sobre entregas y analíticas. He visto estadísticas en Flodesk que no cuadraban con lo que me informaba Substack.Si solo quieres escribir y publicar, Substack sigue siendo perfecto. No cambies por cambiar.Empieza por aquíHe grabado un tutorial básico en YouTube mostrando cómo funciona Flodesk por dentro. Si os gusta, podéis pedirme en comentarios una segunda parte más avanzada donde entre en profundidad con Formularios y Workflows.También estoy preparando para Factoría Creativa un tutorial en profundidad de cómo tengo montada toda esta automatización que vincula Substack con Flodesk. Esa chicha la reservo para quien está de verdad con las manos en la masa.Nada más mi gente de Substack. Animaros a testear Flodesk y espero vuestras impresiones.Un abrazote-GuillermoPD: Si decides probar Flodesk, tengo un código de descuento del 50% durante todo un año. Son cerca de 17,50$ al mes en lugar de 35$. PD2: Si tienes dudas sobre esta estrategia o sospechas similares sobre los datos de tu plataforma actual, cuéntamelo.

Today, I'm introducing you to Kate Tran — my neighbor and a videographer I've personally worked with. If you've taken any of my courses, you've already seen Kate's incredible work. She's the owner of a Nashville-based video production company, and has worked with major brands like CMA, Like to Know It, Tractor Supply, Make-A-Wish, and many more. But what really shines through in this episode is her passion for helping smaller, lesser-known brands find their voice through video content.We're diving into how to create amazing video content as a small business owner — especially when you're wearing many hats and doing it all yourself. The focus is primarily on video content for social media, especially Instagram, but we also touch on other uses for video as well.In our conversation, we cover topics like:Building confidence on cameraTesting your content with Reels trialsAvoiding common mistakes business owners make with videoAnd so much more!Plus, I also encourage you to listen all the way through to the end — my favorite part of the conversation happens in the last 15 minutes. Kate and I talk about working mom life. She's a mom of three and was a stay-at-home mom until COVID hit in 2020. When her youngest was about a year old, she started freelancing, not even sure she could call it a business yet. She shares so much wisdom about starting a business as a mom and balancing motherhood while building something meaningful.Links Mentioned:- Read the full shownotes: https://elizabethmccravy.com/310 - Follow Kate on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/katetranvideoproduction - Work with Kate Tran: https://ktvp-studio.com/ - Connect with Elizabeth on Instagram: https://instagram.com/elizabethmccravy  - Take Our Website Quiz (+ Get Free Canva Templates!): https://elizabethmccravy.com/quiz   - Join Booked Out Designer: https://elizabethmccravy.com/bod- Sign up for Podcast Success Blueprint: https://elizabethmccravy.com/psbNeed some extra pages to improve or add onto your Showit website, BUT you're not in the market for an entirely new template?

Send me a Text Message. In this super honest solo episode, I unpack a limiting belief that's followed me for years: “I can't help others with their business if mine isn't thriving.” As I deepen my coaching journey and reflect on what true success means, I'm realizing how deeply ingrained this belief is—and how untrue it actually is. I share the honest behind-the-scenes of my work, money mindset, slow growth, and how I'm redefining success to align with values over volume. If you've ever felt like you're not “far enough” to help others, this episode is for you.FULL SHOW-NOTES WITH TAKEAWAYS + LINKSpatternshift.fm BEST QUOTE FROM THE EPISODE“Thriving doesn't always look like a massive income. It looks like helping people, making an impact, and doing work that aligns with your soul.”
