You guys.

This episode is a wild ride in the best possible way.

In Part 1 of my conversation with Lindley Battle—founder of Cultivé Creative Co and one of the most brilliant, strategic creatives I know—we dive into why just posting pretty pictures with soft music is not a marketing strategy.

We talk about the real difference between visibility and authority, the danger of treating Instagram like a passive portfolio, and why showing up with clarity and consistency matters way more than being trendy or viral.

We also spiral (obviously) into:
– Building brands that actually book
– How Lindley and I voice note each other through all our breakdowns and breakthroughs
– And the real behind-the-scenes of two women running creative, multi-six-figure businesses that aren’t built on fluff

This episode is part storytelling, part therapy, part marketing masterclass—and I swear, it will make you look at your social media presence with fresh eyes.

Listen to this if:
– You’re a photographer stuck in the cycle of posting and ghosting
– You’re ready to scale but feel invisible online
– You want to grow without becoming an “influencer”
– You need a real friend to say, “Hey babe, this isn’t working—and here’s what to do instead.”
