What if you could get professional copywriting help without completely handing over control of your message? Copy coaching offers a collaborative middle ground that combines your unique voice with professional strategy and support.

In this episode, I'm breaking down exactly what the done-with-you approach to copywriting looks like, who it serves best, and how the process works whether you're starting from scratch or already have copy that needs improvement. 

You'll learn why some business owners can't (and shouldn't) delegate copywriting completely, and how collaboration can actually produce better results than going it alone.

Creative burnout isn't a personal failure—it's a signal that your current content creation approach isn't sustainable. Whether you're in a creative rut right now or want to prepare for inevitable dry spells, this episode is about creating sustainably rather than constantly.

I'm getting honest about why I took time off from podcasting and what I learned during that break. You'll discover low-energy content strategies that still provide value, how to prevent future burnout, and when to seek support rather than just pushing through. Because your audience would rather have authentic content than forced content that feels generic.
