Instagram definitely isn’t what it used to be… but does that mean it’s dead?

The short answer: No, Instagram is NOT dead.

The long answer: You’ve gotta listen to this episode (you knew that was coming, right?!).

You’ll find out why I think Instagram is actually an INCREDIBLE app with tons of potential for online coaches and service providers, how I’ve changed my social media expectations recently, the reasons likes and comments aren’t *really* all that important, and so much more.
