I started 2025 knowing that a few things needed to end in my business (even though innovation and invention are SOOO intoxicating!). Instead, I had a feeling that God was calling me to shut down several things. At the time, I wasn't sure why, but it has become clear that He intended to trim wasted time and effort from the agency, while increasing the value of client relationships. Pretty genius stuff, actually.

Today on the podcast, I'm sharing the impact that deleting social media is having on my business.

In place of social media, I created a non-business mailing list entitled "Just Kate," where I connect with my email subscribers in a much more personal way once or twice per month. If you'd like to join that list, go to www.katethesocialite.com/just-kate.

You can expect things like silly stories about my kids, photos of my family, my politically incorrect rants, what I'm currently struggling with (it's always something), life hacks that I've only just learned (because apparently I've been living under a rock), and of course, pregnancy / baby updates. Basically, it's girl talk in your inbox. Go to www.katethesocialite.com/just-kate to get on the list.
