If you’ve been curious about using AI tools—but hesitant because you don’t want to lose what makes your voice yours—this episode is for you.

I'm joined by Kinsey Soderberg—creator of Authentic AI and champion of the human-first approach to AI content. We dig into how to use AI tools like ChatGPT without sounding robotic, generic, or off-brand.

Whether you’re a coach, copywriter, or service provider, this convo will show you how to save time without sacrificing your voice.

Here’s what we cover:

• The human-first approach to AI—and why it works
• Why AI can’t replace your voice (but it can support it)
• The fill-in-the-blank AI caption trick you’ll want to steal
• Best practices for prompting that actually get results
• How Kinsey uses AI as a pep-talk partner
• Other uses for AI beyond copywriting!

Connect with our guest Kinsey on Instagram @AuthenticAIforEntrepreneurs

The best place to get started with AI for your brand is using a Brand Blueprint* so ChatGPT always remembers who you are and how to write in your voice.

What if your blog could keep bringing in traffic for years—without needing to perform on Instagram or churn out more content?

That’s exactly what Kate Ahl, founder of Simple Pin Media, helps business owners do with Pinterest. In this conversation, we break down how to actually use Pinterest as a traffic driver (not just a digital vision board), why it works so well for content you’ve already created, and the surprisingly simple way to start leveraging it today.

If you’ve written blog posts, launched a podcast, or created freebies for your email list—this is how to make them work harder with less effort.

In this episode, we cover:

• The biggest Pinterest myth most business owners still believe
• A surprising example of keyword research that might change your SEO strategy
• The #1 goal Kate recommends for most service providers on Pinterest
• How to actually track success on the platform (without obsessing over views)
• Kate’s answer to “How often should I pin?”
• The difference between Pinterest keywords vs. Google SEO
• A personal traffic comparison that might change how you use Instagram

Your Next Step:
If you’re already creating pillar content—make it do more. This is exactly the kind of repurposing we help you build into a sustainable marketing rhythm. Start by grabbing my free messaging audit to make sure your content is set up to convert.

How do you turn Instagram engagement into subscribers who actually want to hear from you?

ManyChat is more powerful than most creators are using it for. If you’re only using ManyChat’s “comment X to get Y” automation, then you’re part of the 70% who are also missing out on the kind of connection that actually helps you grow your brand and grow your email list in a meaningful way.

After attending the Instagram Summit by ManyChat in Hollywood, I walked away with two main takeaways:

ONE. Automation should be used in a way to make space for real connection. 

TWO. Your email list is still your most valuable marketing asset—and you’re underutilizing the best tools to grow your email list.

So let’s talk about using ManyChat strategically—as the bridge between casual Instagram engagement and real, human relationships that actually convert. This will help you grow your email list intentionally.

What you’ll hear in this episode:

• The #1 mistake creators make when using Instagram automation (and why it’s hurting your list growth).
• What ManyChat’s CEO revealed about why most DMs never get answered — and how to fix it.
• My three biggest takeaways from the Instagram Summit that will help you grow your email list.
• Practical ways to use ManyChat flows, tags, and segmenting to nurture subscribers with more intention.
  
  

If you’ve been relying on quick automations but not seeing real conversions, this episode will show you how to build a better bridge — from Instagram follower to loyal subscriber.

What you’ll hear in this episode:

• Why traditional marketing strategies often leave us feeling like we’re performing, not connecting

You know visibility is the next step. You’ve built the offer, you’ve got the track record… but something still holds you back and it sounds like:
 "Am I big enough?"
 "Why would anyone care what I have to say?"
 "Who am I to be featured?"

In this episode, I’m joined by media expert Nicole Pearl to talk about what really makes visibility easier—and why the answer isn’t more polish or a bigger audience.

When you lead with your message, your mission, and the people you’re here to serve, the fear fades and the right opportunities come forward. That is the power of brand authenticity.

Whether you're navigating the thought leader identity shift or you're PR-curious, this episode is packed with perspective, practical tips, and a fresh approach to getting visible without burning out.

🎧 Tune in to learn:

• 3 mindset shifts to overcome the fear of being seen
• How to sound confident and media-ready (even if you're nervous)
• The real reason visibility can feel vulnerable—and how to stay rooted
• Nicole’s take on why thoughtful PR beats shiny PR every time
