Today we’re diving into something I talk about often but realise not everyone has heard before: the big "A" word—algorithm. This topic takes us full circle because the very first episode I recorded, nearly five years ago, was all about why your social media content might not be working—and yes, the algorithm was front and center. A lot has changed since then. The algorithm moves fast—it's shifted over the last 12 months, even over the last few weeks. So today, I want to not only break down what’s changed, but also focus on what’s actually working right now—and just as importantly, what you should avoid. Let’s take it back to basics and demystify this ever-evolving digital gatekeeper. Let’s dive in. We’ll be talking about: ➡ [0:00] Introduction to the algorithm and its purpose ➡ [02:19] What the algorithm is and how it works ➡ [04:05] Predictive power of social media algorithms ➡ [06:00] Why content that people want to consume matters ➡ [08:00] Reasons you saw content previously ➡ [09:13] 37% of feed content now comes from unknown sources ➡ [11:00] How Facebook scores your content ➡ [12:00] Signals, behaviour patterns, and relevance scores ➡ [13:00] Content that gets downgraded by the algorithm ➡ [14:50] Clickbait, exaggerated claims, and transparency issues ➡ [18:00] Engagement: Treating social media like a two-way conversation ➡ [20:23] Sharing platform-appropriate content ➡ [21:15] Why links hurt your reach and what to do instead ➡ [24:45] Embrace short-form video content (90 seconds or less) ➡ [26:00] Realness over perfection in video creation ➡ [27:40] User-generated content vs. curated content ➡ [28:45] Spark meaningful, non-controversial conversations ➡ [30:18] What counts as clickbait and how to avoid it ➡ [32:03] Prioritise building Facebook communities ➡ [34:02] Pick one strategy to improve and take action ➡ [34:50] Learn more about joining the Auxano Family Resources: Free Facebook community: https://www.facebook.com/groups/socialmediafordirectsellerswithgregandsam/ Are you ready to keep growing?

Send us a textGrab your coffee—and maybe a calculator—because we're getting real about retirement.

Geneigte Zuhörerschaft, es war einmal eine Fanny und eine Alina – zwei unbedarft plaudernde Gesellschaftsdamen, die glaubten, Kinder seien kleine Engel mit Rosenduft und sanften Worten. Ein Irrtum, wie sich herausstellte. Denn was sie bekamen, war eher… sagen wir… eine Mischung aus Boppele-Beschaffungsdienst, Dauererkältung und kleinkindlicher Diktatur im Supermarktregal. In dieser aufschlussreichen Audienz berichten meine liebsten Hofdamen vom glanzvollen Fall ihrer Illusionen: Wie man einst andere Mütter streng beäugte („Also MEIN Kind wird sowas nie tun!“) und heute das Preisschild-werfende Kleinkind im französischen Supermarkt liebevoll mit „C'est la vie“ entschuldigt. Von Tagträumen hinter Kinderwagengriffen, durchwachten Stillnächten mit leeren Brüsten und dem schockierenden Geständnis, dass nicht jedes Baby von Anfang an süß aussieht – diese Folge ist ein Kaleidoskop aus Realness, Schlafmangel und der bittersüßen Erkenntnis: Das Leben mit Kind ist ein Abenteuer mit Stolpersteinen, aber auch mit Glitzerstaub. Doch verzaget nicht! Denn wo Zweifel wachsen, da blüht bei Alina und Fanny stets auch ein Funken Hoffnung. Und Humor. Und Selbstironie. Ein Werk für alle, die dachten, sie wären allein mit ihren Gedanken – und nun feststellen: Wir sind viele. Und wir sind müde. Aber wir lachen. Und das ist verdammt königlich.

Some may have balked at the news that a Brit would take the helm of Vogue France, but anyone familiar with Claire Thomson-Jonville knows she has long been fluent in the visual and cultural codes that define the brand. Her Instagram alone reads like a prelude to her appointment—an archive of nuanced Parisian style, shaped by years of aesthetic consistency and editorial clarity. No surprise, then, that Anna Wintour has called her the embodiment of French chic. In this episode, we speak with Claire about her longstanding creative partnership—and rare level of trust—with Alastair McKimm, the growing relevance of wellness both within the pages of the magazine and through Vogue France's first-ever wellness retreat launching this summer, and the references she's honoring while bringing her own perspective to a title that now operates in a cultural climate markedly different from that of her predecessors. “I've always had this instinct to follow the work, not the title. If something felt aligned creatively, I went toward it—even if it didn't make perfect sense on paper.” - Claire Thomson-Jonville Episode Highlights: From Law to Parisian Culture - Claire shares her unexpected path from studying law at the University of Edinburgh to discovering her creative instincts while studying French cinema and literature at the Sorbonne. A Childhood of Sneakers and Style - Growing up with a father in sports retail and a love for magazines, Claire reflects on how early exposure to both Nike culture and glossy pages shaped her creative lens. Landing in Paris at the Right Time - Her arrival in Paris during a golden cultural era led to part-time work for Time Out, early encounters with the Colette circle, and an immersion in the city's creative pulse. The Self Service Years - Working with Ezra Petronio and Suzanne Koller at Self Service taught Claire the discipline of image-making, the rigors of independent publishing, and the foundations of her visual language. Freelance Freedom and the Rise of Instagram - Embracing the early days of Instagram, Claire turned consistency and curation into a visual brand—one that foreshadowed her future role at Vogue France. Redefining French Vogue - Claire discusses what it means to inherit a legacy brand in a global digital age, and why feeling like an insider-outsider has helped her lead with authenticity. Realness in Luxury - From vintage-inspired minimalism to publishing knickers on a full page, Claire explores how today's luxury is less about logos and more about time, space, and storytelling. Wellness as Editorial Philosophy - Claire opens up about her wellness routines, High Rocks training, and the upcoming Vogue France wellness retreat—redefining what modern leadership and luxury can look like. Creative Partnership with Alistair McKimm - Her longtime collaboration with Alistair, from i-D to Vogue, reflects a deep trust and shared vision—built on mutual respect and a belief in timeless French fashion codes. What's Contemporary Now? - Claire answers the episode's signature question: “Knowing yourself and following your instincts.” A fitting closing thought from someone who's done exactly that throughout her career.

We have choices to make in how we relate to one another. We can relate from something real in us, and choose to treat the others we are with as real. Or we can retreat into a 'hall of mirrors' when we relate to one another from the more protective patterns in us. Much becomes possible when we find a way to be real, to 'wake to each other' as we're invited to do by M C Richards in this week's source.

In this episode we chat about the latest drama from Sister Wives Season 19, Episode 18, "Money is the Root of All Evil." We discuss Kody Brown's epic line about Meri needing to "ditch those bitches" and find a good man, which should have been the episode title. We finally get to see Christine and David's dynamic as they buy an Airbnb in Moab, Utah. The Coyote Pass drama unfolds as Kody gives the women zero communication, and we see his lack of business acumen. Meri struggles with getting a lawyer despite advice from Jen and Janelle, and we revisit the failed business venture, My Sister's Closet. The episode ends with a cliffhanger as Kody and Robyn reconsider selling Coyote Pass.  Timestamps: 00:00:00 - Introduction and Episode Title Critique 00:02:08 - Jenn's Realness and Instagram Post 00:07:39 - Robyn's Connection to Coyote Pass, Coyote Pass For Sale? 00:08:53 - Coyote Pass Valuation 00:09:56 - Janelle and Maddie's Flower Farm 00:18:09 - Coyote Pass Listing Cliffhanger MY Go Big Podcasting Courses Are Here!
