In today’s episode, I break down funnels in the simplest, most human way possible — no jargon, no pressure, no sleazy strategies.

If you’re an online coach, consultant, educator, or digital expert wanting to bring your work into the online world, this episode is going to feel like a deep exhale. I’m walking you through:

🌴 What a funnel actually is — in normal human words

No tech overwhelm. No fancy diagrams. Just: How people find ...

In this episode, I share what I’m testing behind the scenes as I audit my digital ecosystem. With Kajabi sunsetting the Experts directory, I’m using this moment to explore alternatives and refine my setup: Wix for creative control and merch, WordPress + Elementor for design flexibility (with caveats), and ActiveCampaign for advanced automation and lead scoring.

Kajabi just announced their new rates. In this live episode, I was surprised to learn about this. How this impacts new creators, coaches and educators - those who are just starting out. Is it worth it? Considering Kajabi now offers unlimited community access groups (used to count against your product slot), this is a great news to start offering a community access for your fans as you're building out your business!

After weeks of overthinking the podcast name and nearly slipping into podfade, I’m back — and we’re diving into the raw truth about content creation. Why do we spiral when no one’s watching? What should you give away for free? And how do you stay authentic without softening your edges?

In this solo, unscripted (but weirdly clear) episode, I unpack:

  • Why creating free content can feel heavy — and what to do about it
  • The differen...

This one’s not about tips or tactics. It’s about you. The version of you that’s tired, stretched, questioning whether this business thing is even worth it, but still shows up anyway.

In this deeply honest solo episode, I go live (again), unscripted, unfiltered, and in the thick of it. From juggling client work to bleeding fingers in front of a fan (yes, really), I talk about the messy middle of content creation and the pressure of ...

In this episode of The Content Beach, I hit record and went completely live — unscripted, slightly chaotic, and totally real — to answer the question I keep circling as a creator:

Can we actually escape AI? And should we even be trying to?

This episode isn’t AI fear-mongering or bandwagon hype. It’s my personal take, as someone who builds strategy, runs client systems, and uses AI every day — while still protecting my voice, my v...
