In today’s solo episode of Community Kristina is diving into one of the most common questions entrepreneurs ask us when they make a pivot in business: Should I start a new account?

Whether you’re navigating a niche change, starting something fresh in your life, or wondering if your engagement is low because your audience just isn’t aligned anymore, this episode is for you. Kristina unpacks the two biggest account-related decisions: do I have a personal and business brand, and when it might be time to build something new on social media?

Key takeaways in this episode:

• Why personal and business brands both matter—and how to balance them.
• When a new account is a smart move (and when it’s not).
• How to leverage collaborative posts to expand your reach.
• The secret to fixing low engagement without starting over.

It is important to build a brand that grows with you so that you don’t find yourself starting over down the line!

If you’ve ever asked yourself “should I just start a new social account?” — Make sure you don’t miss this one!

Are you maximizing LinkedIn for community building? In this episode of Community, Kristina sits down with LinkedIn coach Natasha Walstra to unravel the secrets of turning LinkedIn into a lead generation tool and a community building powerhouse. 

Natasha shares her journey from cold-calling to uncovering LinkedIn as a way to build warm leads and close more deals. With over a billion users and only 1% actively posting content, Natasha explains why the platform is ripe for anyone looking to stand out. 

Together they break down how to optimize your profile and make you mark on LinkedIn.

Tune to hear:

• Why LinkedIn is not just for job seekers.
• How with only 1% of users posting content there is massive opportunity to stand out.
• Why you need to stop treating LinkedIn like a resume.
• The importance of optimizing your profile to make it clear what you do and how you help.
• Why "How I" posts outperform "How To" posts in building your authority.
• The magic of LinkedIn's etiquette: engage first, connect genuinely, and nurture relationships over time.
• Why LinkedIn DMs should be personal and authentic, not automated and cold.
• Whether you’re looking to generate leads, expand your network, or simply show up with more confidence on LinkedIn, this episode will inspire you to take action!

• Why niche podcasts perform better.
  and so much more!
