  • Why Thinking Like an 'Artist' Can Skyrocket Your Social Media Success w/ Courtney Weimer | Ep 85

    In this episode, Lydia chats with Social Media Manager and Content Creator Courtney Weimer, diving into the idea that we’re all artists in our own right! What started as a discussion about the nitty-gritty of work and navigating the pandemic naturally evolved into a beautiful conversation about how we should really approach our social media.

    When we say “artist,” we don’t mean you need to be skilled in painting, singing, or sculpting. It’s about embracing the inner artist we all have access to—the creativity that drives authenticity and connection.

    What we cover in this episode:

    • What it was like starting a career in high-end fashion during the pandemic.
    • How to actually stand out on social media by thinking outside the box.
    • Why staying away from trends might be the key to your success.
    • Why social media encourages creativity and how to make it fun again.
    • The importance of consistency for growth on social media.
    • Why posting regularly is better than perfection—you never know what will take off!
    • How to get to know your followers better by using Instagram Stories.

    Get ready for a fresh perspective on social media as a full expression of your brand and a tool for connection, rather than just a numbers game.
