Etsy just dropped a whole bunch of updates for 2025 and if you’re feeling a bit lost in the jargon, don’t panic. I’ve got you. 💛

In this episode, I’m breaking it all down plain and simple:
→ What’s actually changed
→ What you need to know as a handmade seller
→ And which updates will genuinely help you save time, reduce stress, and grow your shop this holiday season 🎄

From AI listing tools and post-purchase automation to real-time keyword insights and a totally redesigned dashboard, this is the update episode that helps you take action - without the overwhelm.

We’ll chat through:
✔️ The 3 big themes of Etsy’s 2025 updates
✔️ Time-saving features you might be missing
✔️ Smart ways to boost visibility and connect with more buyers
✔️ Why your Shop Manager is now way more than a to-do list
✔️ How to turn Etsy’s tools into actual growth this quarter

If you want to finish this year strong, without burning out, this episode is your guide.
