The Influencer Husband Podcast™

I have a confession to make. I have been hiding something from you all for the past two years. I don't mean to click-bait you into an episode but it is true. When I married Dani Austin and became an Influencer Husband there was still a lot of loose ends in my past. This is a story about a meeting I walked into two years ago as "Jordan Ramirez" and then walking into the same meeting two weeks ago as "The Influencer Husband". This episode is really about the difficulty and stress that is created when you segment your life. It is about living transparently and openly. It is about the power of vulnerability and transparency about the good, bad, and ugly in life. It is a lesson in online identity and a call for influencers to live more openly with their lives. While it is difficult my argument is that every influencer and influencer husband should be the same person online as they are offline. 

That moment when your wife asks you to be in an Instagram story. NO WAY! Am I right!? Every Influencer Husband out knows that this is #relatable. But it's not just the Influencer Husbands that struggle with creating content with confidence. Influencers go through the same insecurity and doubt when posting pictures and video of themselves daily. This hesitancy that every content creator feels is what I refer to as "creative inertia" in this podcast. This week's episode is all about discovering the "why" behind you having trouble creating content and then finding strategies to overcome this creators inertia. This one is good for both Influencer Husbands and Influencers alike. Heck, it's probably even good for anyone in the creative field. But my hope is to turn your Influencer Husband's "NO WAY" into a "YAY" when you need them involved. 

Collaboration over competition. A genuinely nice sentiment that we hear repeated over and over again at conferences, in inspiration Instagram captions, and across the internet. But in the influencer industry is this ideal even possible? This week’s episode is an argument for YES it being possible. But to be free from the chains of competition, each influencer must change their mindset on the industry itself. This is not a 1 to 1 industry where every one like for someone else means one less for you. This episode argues for the influencer industry being a robust economy with plenty of likes, follows, and partnerships to provide for each influencer within it.

I read in the newspaper [LOL] that a recession is coming soon. Not to be selfish but all I can wonder is how this is going to affect my selfie game. Obviously that is a joke. But I do believe that the next recession will affect the lives of millions of Americans. It will also affect the content they are consuming online. Your current Instagram feed is filled with travel and consumerism. We see new homes being built and designer goods being bought. These are all signs of a healthy economy where companies are investing in marketing and brand partnerships. But all good things must come to end. Today on the Influencer Husband Podcast we are talking about predictions and effects a recession will have on the content we consume online. If you are an influencer then be sure to tune in for insight into the brighter sides of a trying time.

It's basically official. Mark Zuckerberg will not like any of my pictures on Instagram. He probably won't like yours either now or in the future. This week we are digging into the reasons that Instagram is removing likes and all of the other social media platforms are following. I'm here to try and explore the motives behind the move and the macro and micro-economic effects to the influencer economy. Influencers and Influencer Husbands out there are confused and scared. I'm here to give a couple tricks and theories to see the situation in a different light. 

This is probably the question that I am asked the most from other Influencer Husbands. There are precedents on both sides of the aisle. I know Influencer Husbands that are part-time and still hold their full-time job. I also know Influencer Husbands that have switched over full-time and now run an entire suite of businesses alongside their partner. Last week I talked about why I became a full-time Influencer Husband to @daniaustin. This week is about helping you answer the question on whether it's the right thing for you to do. In this episode I walk through three frameworks or thought-exercises to help you understand whether you should be looking into finding or becoming a full-time Influencer Husband. 

In this episode I'm gonna take you back to 2013 before the influencer husband was even coined or invented. This was where my story of becoming an influencer husband really started. This week I'm sharing my story on how life evolved between @daniaustin and I to where we are at today. I get this question a lot and this lifestyle is a trick to juggle. These are all of the details on how and why this evolved into me becoming the Influencer Husband. This goes out to all my ladies and gentleman out there who have a significant other beloved on the internet. But it also goes out to my influencers out there trying to figure out how to survive when your content creation becomes a business. Be sure to comment and subscribe!
