Navigating burnout, creating unique content, and running a blog with 30 million monthly pageviews with Jeanine Donofrio from Love & Lemons. ----- Welcome to episode 536 of The Food Blogger Pro Podcast! This week on the podcast, Bjork interviews Jeanine Donofrio from Love & Lemons. The Journey to Reaching 30 Million Views a Month In this episode, Bjork chats with Jeanine Donofrio, the creator of the massively popular vegetarian food blog Love & Lemons, which now receives over 30 million monthly pageviews (!!!). Jeanine shares the story behind her blog's evolution — from a personal creative outlet that she started in 2011 to a thriving business with multiple employees. Bjork and Jeanine also talk about how Jeanine balances creativity with content strategy, manages the pressure of staying consistent, and how she navigates seasons of burnout. Three episode takeaways: How and why Jeanine started focusing on SEO — Love & Lemons was monetized solely with sponsored posts for the first 8 years, before fellow food blogggers and friends convinced Jeanine to focus on SEO and monetize with ads in 2019. Jeanine explains more about why she resisted ads and SEO for so many years, and how she navigated the transition to creating content with SEO in mind. How to anticipate and navigate burnout — Jeanine has experienced four intense periods of burnout in her time as a food creator, often related to the creation and promotion of her cookbooks. She shares how she plans for these seasons, why she views burnout as a necessary step to making creative space, and how she avoids rushing herself through burnout. How Jeanine has grown her team and batches content — Jeanine explains how she has hired teammates over the years and why she decided to prioritize outsourcing certain tasks, like photography, to free up her time for recipe development, writing, and spending time with her family. She also shares a peak behind-the-scenes into her content batching process (and why she batches 30 recipes at a time).

Topical authority requires omnipresence across evolving search platforms beyond traditional Google dominance. Daniel Horowitz, SEO strategist at Informatica, demonstrates how enterprise brands must adapt to synthetic queries, AI mode, and multi-platform discovery behaviors where users arrive pre-informed rather than exploratory. The discussion covers semantic relationship optimization through strategic internal linking frameworks, ranking factor adaptation strategies for AI-powered search environments, and scalable approaches for meeting changing user demand across ChatGPT search, Perplexity, and social discovery platforms.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Roofing operator-turned-coach Todd Price breaks down how his team scaled to ~$280M+ with disciplined systems, aggressive social, and deal-savvy private equity strategy. We cover the 3 biggest growth bottlenecks, the “digital doorknock” play on Facebook, standards that create top reps, and when to sell vs. keep your company. If you run a $3–$15M roofing company (or want to), this is your unfair advantage.

AI search traffic is exploding — with AI Discovery up 527% year over year and ChatGPT traffic growing 85% in just six months — creating an unprecedented opportunity for brands willing to adapt their marketing strategies now.While most businesses are still figuring out what AI search even means, forward-thinking marketers are already capturing high-value traffic and securing prime recommendation spots in ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google's AI Mode.For businesses ready to dominate this new search landscape, mastering AI search optimisation isn't optional — it's becoming the difference between market leadership and irrelevance.In this episode, I reveal:The exact audit process to assess your brand's current AI visibility (including which tools give you the most granular data about your performance across different LLMs)Why brands have a massive advantage in AI search results — and how to leverage your brand as a "defined entity" that LLMs can easily connect to other conceptsThe critical difference between generic content and what AI tools actually need (hint: they can generate generic information themselves — they need your first-party data and expertise)How third-party citations drive recommendations — including why AI tools would "rather go to someone else and look at what other people are saying about you than look at what you're saying about yourself"The specific content formats that get cited most frequently (based on analysis of top-performing brands across multiple industries)I'll share real examples from brands like MetLife, DeWalt, and Better.com, showing exactly how they're optimising for AI search — including surprising recommendations that go beyond marketing into actual product development.As I explain in the episode:"We're in a strange moment right now where some businesses are focusing really heavily on AI Search, but honestly, most companies aren't even thinking about this as a thing. Even though they themselves are using ChatGPT all day every day to find stuff to buy, they haven't really thought about how their brand shows up in these AI tools. And that means we're in a little bit of a land grab moment."If you're ready to implement these five AI search strategies while your competitors are still stuck in traditional SEO thinking, this episode provides your complete roadmap for dominating AI search in 2026 and beyond.Try Semrush's AI SEO Toolkit

When I started my own practice, I thought success would be a straight line up. It wasn't. Running a chiropractic business is a roller coaster. One month you're crushing it, the next you're wondering if you'll make payroll. SEO rankings bounce. Patient numbers dip. Finances fluctuate. The problem isn't the ups and downs themselves — it's how we respond to them. In this episode of the Rocket Chiro Podcast, I talk about why paying attention to patterns matters more than reacting to every blip in your stats. I share real-world examples from my own practice days and from chiropractors I've helped over the years. You'll also hear practical tips on how to stay calm, make better decisions, and build a business that weathers the inevitable swings. Here's What I Cover in This Episode Why success in chiropractic practice isn't linear (and why that's okay) How I track numbers so I can see the real trends instead of guessing The difference between a dip that needs action and a dip that's just noise How plans, habits, and cause-and-effect thinking keep me grounded Why low overhead can help you survive the roller coaster When to stick with a plan and when to pivot How to get advice from the right people — not the peanut gallery   Resources Mentioned Free Website/SEO Review: https://rocketchiro.com/chiropractic-practice-assessment Best chiropractic websites: https://rocketchiro.com/best-chiropractic-websites Chiropractic SEO: https://rocketchiro.com/chiropractic-seo

Many therapists in private practice want to run a solid, ethical business—but the idea of “compliance” can feel confusing, overwhelming, or even downright scary. Between HIPAA requirements, proper documentation, and ever-changing policies, it's tough to know what you don't know… and easy to put it off for another day. In this episode of the Private Practice Elevation Podcast, Daniel Fava sits down with Dr. Tiana Kelly to demystify compliance and make it feel manageable—even if you're just getting started. Tiana shares how she built the compliance program at Move Forward Counseling (with over 60 therapists!) and now helps other private practices do the same through her consulting business, Private Practice By Design.

Tiana also explains: Why “go slow” is key when rolling out compliance updates The biggest mistakes she sees practices make (and how to avoid them) What therapists really need to be trained on from day one How to build a culture of learning, accountability, and ethical care Whether you're a solo therapist or running a growing group practice, this episode will help you think more clearly about compliance—and feel more confident taking your next step.

En este episodio especial de La Teoría de la Mente, nos ponemos el espejo delante para hablar de algo necesario: la autocrítica en psicología clínica. Porque sí, los psicólogos también se equivocan, y hoy hacemos un ejercicio honesto para nombrar y reflexionar sobre algunos de los errores más comunes en nuestra práctica profesional. Desde menospreciar los síntomas del paciente, pasando por la obsesión con el trauma, el uso excesivo de técnicas, hasta llegar a esa necesidad narcisista de creernos salvadores, nos adentramos en una mirada crítica pero constructiva hacia el ejercicio clínico. Este episodio no es un manual, ni una guía definitiva. Es más bien una desiderata, una lista de cosas que queremos observar con más conciencia, aunque sigamos equivocándonos en el camino. Porque de eso también va la terapia: de reconocer la sombra sin necesidad de eliminarla, de acompañar sin pretender salvar. Reflexionamos sobre la importancia de: Escuchar y dar espacio real a los síntomas, que a menudo son el centro del malestar del paciente. Evitar simplificar todo a un trauma oculto y mágico que lo explique todo. Entender que las técnicas no salvan, sino que ayudan si se aplican con sentido y contexto. Cuestionar nuestras propias fantasías como terapeutas y los modelos que intentamos imponer. Abandonar el rol de “gurú” para convertirnos en guías humanos, falibles, acompañantes del dolor del otro. Poner en el centro la relación terapéutica, como base de cualquier proceso de transformación emocional. Este episodio no solo es una invitación a la reflexión, sino también una herramienta para repensar cómo estamos acompañando a quienes vienen a consulta. Porque la psicología no es una fórmula perfecta, es una relación imperfecta entre dos personas que se atreven a mirar el sufrimiento de frente. Si eres psicólogo/a, terapeuta, estudiante de psicología o simplemente te interesa el mundo de la salud mental desde un lugar humano y realista, este episodio es para ti. Y si estás del otro lado, si alguna vez fuiste paciente y sentiste que no te escuchaban, este también es tu espacio.

Episode 184: Automate Your Lead Generation with our FREE online course: https://go.digitaltrailblazer.com/auto-leads-course-freeMany online business owners waste months creating courses, coaching programs, or services only to discover there's no market demand when they finally launch. This leads to lost time, money, and momentum that could have been invested in profitable ventures.In this episode, Josiah Ryan teaches us how to validate offers before building them using his "rank and rent" strategy. He explains how to generate traffic first, test market demand by selling leads or affiliate products, and only invest in creating the full offer once you've proven people will actually buy. This approach eliminates the guesswork and ensures your time is spent building something that's guaranteed to sell.About Josiah Ryan: Josiah is a Fractional CMO, marketing strategist, podcast host, and author of the upcoming book “Questions Are Your Weapons”.He first made his mark in digital marketing by launching an SEO agency that helped over 100 business owners scale across dozens of industries—generating well over $50 million in combined client revenue. From high-ticket service businesses to local operators, Josiah developed a reputation for simplifying complex problems and building lean systems that actually convert.After running both his agency and his own high-growth rental business, he launched Competitive Edge Consulting to bring real marketing leadership to founders who are tired of guessing and ready to scale with clarity.Today, Josiah serves as a trusted Fractional CMO for service-based businesses that want to grow without the bloat—offering strategy, structure, and execution without the inflated retainers.

Renaldo sits down in Philadelphia with Twin Brother Ricardo Mckenzie and Media Consultant Paul Booth for a rapid-fire Pulse: Trump's rhetoric and “unity,” the constitutionality of sending National Guard into cities, whether militarized policing reduces crime, the real drivers of violence (poverty and inequality), and the right's gerrymandering blitz. Then a quick pivot to sports: the Eagles' outlook, the Chiefs loss, and why Jalen Hurts doesn't need anyone's validation. Straight talk, no varnish—politics, culture, and football from Philly.Opening in Philly — Ricardo joins Renaldo in-studio; why the moment feels tense but clarifying.Trump & “unity” — Missed chances to cool rhetoric; what a president owes the whole country.National Guard in cities — Legal/constitutional questions; why militarization isn't a long-term public-safety strategy.Root causes of crime — Relative deprivation, poverty, and inequality vs. short-run deterrence; the budget tradeoff between troops/police and opportunity programs.Gun violence — Responsibility of ownership and the policy gap between mass shootings and everyday violence.Gerrymandering — Texas and beyond; why “process vs. power grab” defines the map fight, and how Democrats should respond.Sports pivot — Eagles confidence, Saquon's move, Chiefs' stumble, and Hurts' business-first mentality.Calls to action — Support, subscribe, and follow links (as you read on air).Long show notes / summaryOpening in Philly — Ricardo joins Renaldo in-studio; why the moment feels tense but clarifying.Trump & “unity” — Missed chances to cool rhetoric; what a president owes the whole country.National Guard in cities — Legal/constitutional questions; why militarization isn't a long-term public-safety strategy.Root causes of crime — Relative deprivation, poverty, and inequality vs. short-run deterrence; the budget tradeoff between troops/police and opportunity programs.Gun violence — Responsibility of ownership and the policy gap between mass shootings and everyday violence.Gerrymandering — Texas and beyond; why “process vs. power grab” defines the map fight, and how Democrats should respond.Sports pivot — Eagles confidence, Saquon's move, Chiefs' stumble, and Hurts' business-first mentality.Calls to action — Support, subscribe, and follow links (as you read on air).SEO keywords / tagsPhiladelphia politics; militarized policing; National Guard in cities; crime & poverty; gun violence; gerrymandering; 2025 agenda; Jalen Hurts; Eagles vs Chiefs; The NeoLiberal Round; The PulseThis episode contains frank discussion of violence, race, and politics.Content advisoryThis episode contains frank discussion of violence, race, and politics.Renaldo McKenzie is the Creator and Host of The Neoliberal Round Podcast and President of The Neoliberal (The Neoliberal Corporation).

Send us a textBuilding a consulting firm from scratch requires more than expertise—it demands vision, resilience, and an unwavering commitment to culture. Edward Beals, founder of Loft9, demonstrates how these principles can transform a startup consultancy into an acquisition target in less than a decade.Starting with just two founders and modest investment, Loft9 achieved remarkable first-year results: 17 employees and $2.2 million in revenue. Beals attributes this success to their cultural foundation, what he calls the "trifecta of awesomeness"—hiring people who are smart, driven, and humble. This cultural emphasis wasn't just internal; it became their market differentiator when competing against established players."Clients are looking for a partner, someone who's going to roll up their sleeves and get in the trenches with them," Beals explains. "Not just someone to come in, tell them what to do, and walk away with a fancy deck left behind." This philosophy, combined with their co-delivery quality assurance model, helped them win business despite never being the lowest-priced option.When SIA Partners acquired Loft9 in 2019, the deal came together with surprising speed—just three months from letter of intent to closing. The acquisition offered strategic advantages for both companies: SIA gained a West Coast presence, while Loft9 accessed complementary capabilities in design thinking and data science without having to build them from scratch.For aspiring consultancy founders, Beals offers practical wisdom: invest in marketing earlier than you think necessary (particularly SEO), surround yourself with critical perspectives that challenge your ideas, and find deep personal motivation—for him, it was providing for his children—that will sustain you through the inevitable challenges of entrepreneurship.Want to transform your consultancy's value?

High-achieving and still 30% happy at work? In this Healthy Mind, Healthy Life episode, career coach and therapist Rachel Spekman unpacks why smart professionals stay in roles they secretly hate—status, salary, identity—and how to exit without chaos. We cover permission to want more, navigating identity shifts, handling judgment, and practical, income-safe pivots (including fractional work). Direct, actionable, SEO-friendly guidance for YouTube/Facebook/Instagram/LinkedIn audiences who want purpose, alignment, and sustainable earnings—without burning their careers to the ground. Guest: Rachel Spekman. About the guest   Rachel Spekman is a career coach and licensed therapist specializing in identity transformations and vocational alignment. After 15 years in brand marketing, 10 years with startups, and 5 years as a therapist, she helps professionals move from soul-sucking roles into work that matches values, strengths, and desired income. Key takeaways Start with permission: ask, “Am I allowed to want something different?” Then imagine alternatives before acting. Define “achievement” for yourself—not for LinkedIn, bosses, or family. Success must map to your values. Expect value shifts: life events (loss, mental health, family) change what “fits.” A once-great job can become misaligned. Measure reality: honestly rate your work happiness out of 100. If you're at ~30%, plan a directional change. Aim for 80% satisfaction by moving 1–2% at a time; small, consistent improvements compound. Choose your problems: invest your “three Ts” (time, talent, treasure) where you want to solve challenges. Identity work matters: manage the ego when titles change; treat everyone with integrity—today's intern can be tomorrow's boss. Build safe bridges: don't jump without a plan. Most realignments take 6–12 months with clear milestones. Consider fractional work: package your expertise for multiple clients to increase autonomy and earnings. Realignment isn't always promotion; a “lateral” or even “demotion” can be a values-aligned win.
