The staying power of SEO, experimenting with different SEO tactics, and how to create content that resonates with your audience. ----- Welcome to episode 492 of The Food Blogger Pro Podcast! This week on the podcast, Bjork interviews Stephan Spencer.  The Art of SEO with Stephan Spencer In this episode, Stephan Spencer, author of The Art of SEO, breaks down why SEO is still as important as ever, even with AI changing the search landscape. While AI may shift how we search, SEO remains the backbone of the internet. Stephan encourages listeners to stay focused on their SEO goals, keep investing in strategies that work, and adapt to the evolving world of search. You'll also hear Stephan talk about the power of experimentation. Don't be afraid to tweak things like title tags and test different tactics—whether it's a boost or a drop, tracking results is key and tools like Google Search Console, SEMRush, and Ahrefs can help you monitor performance and refine your strategy. Lastly, you'll learn about the importance of creating content that resonates with your audience—Google rewards authentic, helpful content, so the more personal and valuable your content is, the better it'll perform in search. Three episode takeaways: SEO Still Reigns Supreme: Despite the rise of AI, SEO isn't going anywhere. AI may change how we search, but SEO has been the backbone of the internet for decades. Keep investing in it, stay focused on your goals, and create your own reality in the world of search. Experiment and Track Results: Don't be afraid to experiment with SEO tactics (like changing title tags). You may see a boost—or a drop—but you can always course-correct. Stephan also talks about how you can use tools like Google Search Console, Analytics, Ahrefs, or SEMRush to track your results and optimize your strategy. Create Content That Connects: Focus on crafting comprehensive content that meets your audience's needs and expectations. Personal stories and experiences matter, too! Google's E-E-A-T metric rewards real, human experiences, so the more authentic and valuable your content, the better it'll perform.

Without a mentor, how do you expect to change and grow as a professional? That's where ATA's Mastermind Program comes in! Translators and interpreters often go into business understanding that finding and retaining clients will be hard work.

Today we are joined by Antonio de Jesus Garcia. Antonio is a young visual artist and poet who's originally from Tuxtla Gutiérrez, Chiapas, Mexico, now living in Sunset Park, Brooklyn. He has been making art and poetry for roughly 2 years creating over 500 pieces that are inspired by the people he meets everyday. Antonio sells his art in the streets of New York mostly showcasing his works in Washington Square Park, there Antonio connects with his audience by asking them to pick a number from 1 to 10 and then asks a question based on the number they picked. The intimate and vulnerable responses he gets from the people he meets later inspire many of his pieces. Now at 25, Antonio hopes to inspire people to do more than they ever believed possible not only with his art, also with his words.

Wondering why life feels out of balance? Trying to figure out what need to change? Tired of not showing up as your best self? Here's what's really wrong!   Do you sometimes feel like your life is one never-ending hamster wheel? I mean, we all have good days. And we all have bad days. But when you look at where you are in life today, how do you feel?  Do you feel stuck in the cycle of stress, exhaustion and overwhelm? Or are you living in the cycle of feeling filled, fueled and full of joy? There will always be demands on our time and energy that lead us to get overwhelmed from time to time, but when we spend the majority of our time feeling stressed out, pulled in too many directions and overwhelmed with life…well that's not really thriving. And to be honest, when that happens, no one is going to get the best version of us.   In this episode we discuss 3 FUNDAMENTAL NEEDS that must be present in our life if we want to break the cycle of stress, exhaustion and overwhelm.   These three things are absolutely necessary if we want to thrive as military spouses and craft lives with purpose. So let's talk about what they are and how we can incorporate them in our daily lives.   XO,  Christine P.S. MilSpouse Purpose Playbook is only a few weeks away from launching!!

Have you ever thought to yourself, “When my active duty spouse is gone, I'll get all these things accomplished?” And then Murphy's Law of Deployment happens.   The car breaks down. The kids get sick. The air conditioner stops working. If your spouse is gone, that's inevitably when something goes wrong. But while we may be more acutely aware of this phenomenon, the truth is there are things that will always get in the way of us pursuing our goals. Any time we try to make a positive change, we will face obstacles.   It's called resistance. And it's the reason why most new years' resolutions are never kept. Why most dreams simply stay dreams.   In today's episode, we unpack what resistance is, why we face it, and we discuss 3 specific strategies to keep us moving forward despite the obstacles in our way! P.S. MilSpouse Purpose Playbook is almost here!! I'm so excited to get this into your hands.
