• It’s Not Just You: Why Online Business Feels Different Right Now

  What This Season of Change Makes Possible for You and Your Business The online marketing landscape is shifting—and if you’ve been feeling like your go-to strategies aren’t working the same way they used to, you’re not alone. But here's the truth: this evolution is your invitation to get smarter, more agile, and more profitable than ever before. In this episode, I sit down with my dear friend Jenna Kutcher to unpack what’s really happening in the world of digital marketing—from shrinking webinar show-up rates to why cold audiences are harder to convert (and what to do about it). We’re getting honest about the changes we’re seeing in our own launches and sharing the mindset and marketing pivots that are helping us stay ahead. If you’ve been wondering why your organic reach is dropping, if paid ads are even worth it, or whether evergreen funnels still convert, you’ll find answers here, plus clear steps to refine your strategies without burning out. Whether you’re adjusting to new buyer behavior, exploring alternative ad platforms like Pinterest, or figuring out how to build trust in the age of AI, this episode gives you the clarity you need to stay confident in your business. HERE ARE THE 3 KEY TAKEAWAYS FROM THIS EPISODE: 1️⃣ Marketing Isn't Broken—But It Is Different Email, webinars, and evergreen funnels still work…if you evolve with them. Buyer behavior has changed, and that shift calls for smarter strategies, better messaging, and more personalized touchpoints. 2️⃣ Your Audience Is Evolving—Are You? Cold audiences need clarity fast, and warm audiences need to feel reconnected. Revisit your avatars, refresh your messaging, and don’t assume your audience is the same as last year. 3️⃣ It's Time to Lead with Agility, Not Just Automation Lower show-up rates and smaller cart close days aren’t signs of failure—they're signals to show up earlier, sell with clarity, and build trust over time. Strategic pivots (like offering payment plans sooner or trying Pinterest ads) can turn dips into breakthroughs.

• Subject Lines That Stop the Scroll: Jay Schwedelson’s Secrets Revealed

  Your Emails Deserve More Opens, Clicks, and Sales—Here’s How to Get Them AI is making us feel less and less connected with brands, but personal newsletters are changing the game. With a 48% higher open rate and 30% more click-throughs than traditional brand emails, personal newsletters are becoming the ultimate way to break through the noise and build trust with your subscribers. Email marketing expert Jay Schwedelson joins me to share step-by-step how you can implement unconventional and super impactful strategies to revitalize your email marketing efforts. You'll discover what makes a newsletter truly personal, the must-have elements for success, and email growth strategies that actually work right now. If your open rates have plateaued, your click-throughs aren't what they used to be, or you're just tired of putting hours into emails that don't convert, this episode delivers the exact framework you need. HERE ARE THE 3 KEY TAKEAWAYS FROM THIS EPISODE: 1️⃣ People Connect With People—Not Faceless Brands – When your audience sees a real person in their inbox instead of a company name, they're much more likely to open and engage. Jay reveals how to strategically use your "from" name as an extension of your subject line and why this one small change can transform your results immediately. 2️⃣ Why Landing In The Promo Tab Is Actually A Good Thing – This common fixation is likely distracting you from what really matters for email deliverability. Instead, learn what's actually causing your open rate issues and the simple validation process that can dramatically improve performance. 3️⃣ Make Your Emails Feel Like a Personal Experience, Not a Transaction – The most effective newsletters blend authentic storytelling with strategic marketing. Jay shares practical tips (like adding reading time estimates to links) that can instantly boost click-through rates.

• How to Align Your Business Strategy for Long-Term Success

  The Smartest Entrepreneurs Know When to Pivot—Here’s How to Spot and Fix a Strategy That’s Holding You Back What if the reason your business growth has stalled isn’t due to a lack of strategy—but rather the wrong strategy? You might be unknowingly following an anti-strategy, a sneaky business misalignment that costs time, money, and momentum. In this episode, I’m pulling back the curtain on my own anti-strategies—the costly decisions I thought were game-changers but turned out to be massive missteps. From a coaching program that almost derailed my core business to a CRM migration nightmare that drained time and resources, I’m sharing the hard-earned lessons that will help you avoid making the same mistakes. If you’ve ever felt stuck despite implementing all the "right" strategies, this episode is for you. I’ll walk you through exactly how to identify and course-correct an anti-strategy before it costs you big time. HERE ARE THE 3 KEY TAKEAWAYS FROM THIS EPISODE: 1️⃣ An Anti-Strategy Is a Strategy That Works Against You – Sometimes, a plan seems smart on paper but lacks alignment with your core business goals. If a new project pulls you away from your primary revenue drivers, it could be an anti-strategy in disguise. 2️⃣ Misalignment Costs More Than You Think – Whether it’s wasted time, lost revenue, or team frustration, making decisions in a silo (without the right input) leads to costly detours. The key is bringing the right people into the conversation early. 3️⃣ The Fix? Strategic Check-Ins & Gut Instincts – Regularly review your business goals and ask, “Is this truly moving us forward?” If your gut tells you something is off, trust it. Pausing and pivoting sooner rather than later can save you from a painful misstep.

• Why Customers Buy When They Feel Like They Belong

  The Step-by-Step Framework for Marketing That Actually Connects and Converts My friend, if you're ready to refresh your marketing approach, this episode is going to be a total game-changer for you! We’re diving deep into identity-driven marketing strategies with the incredible Veronica Romney, who has pioneered a revolutionary approach that shifts your messaging from "buy this" to "be this."  Veronica explains that true identity marketing connects your brand so deeply with somebody's self-identity—not just who they are now, but who they wish to become—that they develop a loyalty that's transformational for your business. We explore the critical difference between identity marketing and brand identity, why relationship-oriented marketing truly outperforms those old-school transactional approaches, and how businesses of any size can leverage the psychology of identity to create movements around their brands.  Veronica breaks down her four-part Identity Code framework, shares real-world success stories that will inspire you, and explains why revisiting your ideal customer avatar might be the missing piece to your current marketing strategy. Trust me, this conversation is packed with so many actionable insights that will help you bring identity marketing to life in your business! HERE ARE THE 3 KEY TAKEAWAYS FROM THIS EPISODE: 1️⃣ Connect With Identity, Not Just Features – People don't buy products; they buy a version of themselves they want to become. Move beyond "buy this" marketing to create a sense of belonging that transforms casual buyers into devoted brand champions who see you as part of their identity. 2️⃣ Follow The Four-Step Identity Code – Find your audience's true identity by listening to how they talk about themselves, test your ideas like a comedian workshops jokes, give deep meaning to what belonging looks like, and create tangible ways for people to express this identity in their everyday lives. 3️⃣ Start Identity Marketing Inside Your Organization – Before marketing identity to customers, establish it within your business. When your team strongly identifies with their roles, they'll naturally create more authentic and powerful identity-based messaging for your audience.
