I often get asked, “Tracy, if I only have 30 minutes to spend on Instagram. What should I do?” As an Instagram strategist, I wish I could sit down with my tribe to chat about IG over a smoothie bowl.
I know that isn't possible. So I really want you to walk away from this episode knowing what the one thing you should do with your next 30 minutes on Instagram actually is.
Now, if you're not open to getting out of your comfort zone so you can welcome growth... you may let your Instagram ego get in the way of this strategy.
Just know that when we get our Instagram ego out of the way, we're actually able to create content that helps people. Content that allows people to acquire some new form of knowledge, have something they didn't have before, become something, do something, progress in some sort of way, or maybe it simply helps them feel a certain way.
All of those things are ways to HELP your audience. When you take yourself out of the picture, you will see that you really do have so much to offer your tribe.
The simple strategy of teaching something back via IGTV is what we're going to dive into today - just you, me, and some Instagram strategising. A dream come true 😍

Entrepreneurship should be fun! Can you imagine what would happen if we all took ourselves less seriously? What content would you put out into the world that you actually have fun creating? Would this lead you to turning your “hobby” into your actual business?
That's what happened for today's podcast guest who put a video onto her Facebook Page just for fun... It was only when she uploaded another recipe video that went viral with 50K views in just three days, that Vanya Insull, of VJ Cooks, knew she could monetise her recipes.
“I kind of did the food blogging backwards because I had my Facebook Page first, then I had so much demand for the recipes that I had to create a website to store them on.”
This insane demand could be your reality, too, if you just had a little fun, put something out there, and saw if it stuck!
I have the pleasure of mentoring Vanya within my private academy The Social Method Society. She is a recipe queen who is always keen to explore new ways to market her business online. Vanya is a Kiwi mum of two young boys, living in NZ. She is an amazing food blogger who loves to share family friendly recipes with her social media following.
During this episode, Vanya is sharing with us how she has been able to grow such a loyal and engaged following on Facebook and Instagram. Plus, Vanya is a content goddess who is repurposing her blog content to save time and work efficiently!

In the earlier days of my business, particularly the first year, there was one thing that used to bother, shake and derail me when it came to my email list or Instagram followers. I'm talking about those dreaded unsubscribes and unfollows!
I'd go from high-vibe to low-vibe and experience some serious self-doubt... Especially because this would happen even if I was sharing the three types of content that grows your blog or podcast.
Truthfully, unsubscribers and unfollowers are just a part of life in this digital age. And I did have to strengthen my mindset to actually see the positives whenever this would happen - that all of those unsubscribers and unfollowers were actually a blessing.
In today's podcast episode, I'm going to explain how you should really feel when someone unsubscribes or unfollows you.

Motherhood can be a challenging and overwhelming journey - especially if you have an online business. It's easy to shy away from talking about the changes that come, physically and mentally, after you become a mum. In addition, there's a certain stigma around certain issues, so you rarely hear these changes spoken about.
However, I'm never one to shy away from these types of discussions, and neither are the members in my private academy the Social Method Society. We've nurtured a community where we can be vulnerable.
Honest Conversation
I believe when we open the door for real, honest communication, we'll be able to reach a certain level of empowerment. We can feel confident talking about our bodies and mental health without shame or embarrassment.
Laura Callea felt the same way when she realised many mothers did not know the right information when it came to safe exercise during pregnancy and preventing common pelvic floor issues. She expressed that she felt like she was limited in her ability to only help a certain number of women each week at the clinic she worked at. In her heart, Laura knew that there were so many other women out there that she needed to serve.
“I felt that I had a responsibility to make sure that less and less women were coming into the clinic after birth saying, 'I wish I had known about safe exercises during my pregnancy!'.”
Laura is a women’s health physiotherapist who felt the urge to create an online community to help women better understand their bodies. She started small by focussing solely on pregnancy with her online blog Physio Laura. Since then, Laura has expanded into her online pregnancy membership program, The Pregnancy Posse.
Today Laura is sharing how she took her health practise from offline to online, how she niched down, and how she keeps her ego in check so that she can serve her audience.
