Welcome back to the Good Girls Get Rich podcast and I’m your host, Karen Yankovich. If you’re still treating LinkedIn like it’s a boring conference room from 2012… we need to talk. Like, now.

In this week’s episode of Good Girls Get Rich, I’m bringing my full Jersey energy to the mic and giving you the real talk on why LinkedIn is not optional anymore — especially for smart, accomplished women ready to step into their next-level income, impact, and influence.

We want to hear your thoughts on this episode! Leave us a message on Speakpipe or email us at [email protected].

 

About The Episode and Highlights:

Whether you’re a consultant, speaker, executive coach, or boardroom-bound powerhouse, your LinkedIn profile is either working for you 24/7… or whispering, “She’s not ready.” I’m walking you through 10 unapologetic reasons to stop ghosting LinkedIn and start treating it like the high-ticket magnet it truly is. Spoiler alert: LinkedIn drives 80% of all B2B leads on social media — and if you’re not part of that statistic, we’re gonna fix that today.

You’ll learn:

• Why your LinkedIn profile is your first digital impression (and how to stop leaving money on the table).
• How to turn your existing network into a referral goldmine without cold pitching.
• Why thought leadership and PR visibility live (and thrive) on LinkedIn.
• What makes LinkedIn the only social platform where people are actually thinking about business when they log in.
• How to position your brilliance for speaker gigs, board seats, and big-ticket opportunities — without dancing or trends.

This is your wake-up episode, friend. No shame, just love. The kind that comes with a little nudge to finally claim your visibility like the powerhouse you are.

 

Magical Quotes From The Episode:

“LinkedIn isn’t just your digital first impression — it’s your online publicist, your brand strategist, and your lead machine. Use it like one.”

“Visibility isn’t about popularity. It’s about positioning. One conversation, one post, one person — that’s all it takes to land your next $25K client.”

“Stop treating LinkedIn like a résumé. Start treating it like the spotlight for the woman you’re becoming, not the one you used to be.”

“Your next client, your next board seat, your next speaking gig — they’re all a connection away. But only if you show up like you’re ready.”
