Liberatory Business with Simone Seol

53. Why your excited copy isn't working


Listen Later

If you’ve ever written copy that felt amazing — full of passion, fire, excitement — only to have it land with a dull thud… this episode is for you.

Today Simone breaks down why “I’m so excited!” energy often repels rather than connects, and what to do instead.

You’ll learn:

  • The hidden flaw inside passion-driven copy (and why it disconnects you from the person reading)
  • How to shift out of your emotional enthusiasm and into your client’s lived experience
  • Why your passion is fuel — but not the message
  • Real examples of how to transform “I’m passionate about helping ___” into grounded, client-centered language
  • The 5-question checklist Simone uses to audit her own copy before publishing
  • The simplest form of “market research” (that isn’t corporate, gross, or extractive)
  • How to let your passion shine through your work, not through over-excited marketing that confuses your audience

If your writing feels heartfelt but isn’t converting… if people say your posts are “beautiful” but don’t actually buy… this episode will shift the way you think about communication forever.

In this episode, Simone covers:

  • The trap of self-centric excitement
  • How passion can distort clarity
  • The difference between information and value
  • Why people hire expertise before enthusiasm
  • How to write copy that speaks to their problem, in their language
  • When passion becomes a bonus — not the hook

Your passion is sacred and necessary — but your copy needs to center them, not you. When you do, everything becomes clearer, stronger, and more effective.
