It’s still early in 2026, and if you’re feeling a little behind on your content or social media plan, you are not alone. In this episode, I’m breaking down the exact framework we teach inside the Get Social Smart Academy to help you create a simple, flexible, and realistic plan for your marketing this year.

You’ll hear how to do a quick self-audit of your online presence, how to clarify your voice and who you want to attract, and how to build a content routine that actually fits into real life. I also walk through how to organize your ideas, create evergreen content you can reuse all year, and use monthly themes to make content creation feel easier and more focused.

We also talk about why consistency matters more than ever in today’s algorithms, how to time-block your content creation, and what tools can help you stay organized and avoid burnout.

If you’ve been feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure where to start with your 2026 plan, this episode will help you reset, refocus, and move forward with confidence.

In this episode, I’m sharing my real focus for 2026 - no hype, and no crystal ball required.

I’m talking about what actually matters moving forward: creating a sustainable content plan, using AI smarter (without losing your voice), leaning into your niche, building real community, and cutting through the noise with more intention and humanity.

This episode is for entrepreneurs and real estate professionals who want to stay visible, build trust, and grow without burning out - and who are craving a simpler, more intentional way to show up online in 2026.

Happy New Year!

As the year comes to a close, I’m recording one last, completely unscripted podcast - from my driveway. With no notes, no studio, and no filters, this is a messy, honest year-end reflection on business, life, and everything in between.

In this episode, I share what this past year really looked like behind the scenes, why consistency doesn’t always mean perfection, and how I’m thinking about community, connection, content, and in-person experiences moving into the new year. 

We’ll talk about social media, AI, handwritten notes, face-to-face conversations, and why relationships matter more than ever in a noisy world.

If you’re ending the year feeling proud, tired, hopeful, or unsure - you’re not alone. Consider this a reminder that it’s okay to give yourself grace and that done is better than perfect.
