    How to Use Pinterest For Your Business And Make Your Content Live Longer

    For most of us, creating content is the part that feels natural, but promotion feels more vulnerable. So we do what we’ve always done… we make something new. We stay busy. We stay in motion. But what if the real power isn’t in making more, but in letting what you’ve already made breathe a little longer? What if the magic isn’t in more content, but in more intention behind how it’s shared? Visit http://www.teachmetopin.com to learn about the platform I’ve been teaching about for over eight years, one I’ve helped over 25,000 people use in their business to create content systems that actually last! In this episode, I’m walking you through a simple mindset shift that changed everything for me. If you're feeling burned out, tired of feeding the algorithm, or wondering why your content doesn’t seem to carry the weight it should, this one’s for you. We’ll explore what it looks like to shift from short-term content bursts to long-term, strategic sharing. I'm talking about ways to make your creations live longer, reach further, and work harder without requiring more from you every single day. If you’re ready to get off the content hamster wheel and start building a business where your work keeps working, even while you rest, this is your permission slip. Press play now!

    Validate Before You Create: Stop Wasting Time on Offers That Don’t Sell

    We’ve all been there—pouring time, energy, and maybe even money into an idea that felt like a winner, only to launch it and hear… crickets. It’s frustrating, it’s discouraging, and it can make you second-guess everything.  But what if you could know before you create whether an idea is actually worth pursuing? In this episode, I’m breaking down how to validate your ideas before you invest in them so you stop wasting time on offers, products, or projects that won’t sell. I’ll share the simple ways I test demand, get real audience feedback, and tweak ideas before they ever go to market.  Whether you’re launching something new or refining what you already have, I want to help you save time, energy, and a whole lot of stress.

    Let’s be real: paid ads have changed a lot over the years, and keeping up with what actually works can feel like trying to hit a moving target. But lucky for me (and for you), I’ve had the same brilliant ads strategist in my corner for years, and she’s here today to break it all down for us!

In this episode, we’re diving into what’s actually working for Facebook ads in 2025—what strategies are performing best, what’s not worth your time or money anymore, and Kerry’s biggest tips for maximizing your ROI and there’s a shocking fact in this episode that I think will blow your mind when it comes to ads.

    You ever have one of those mornings where motivation feels... MIA? Like, the to-do list is waiting, your calendar is full, but the last thing you want to do is any of it? Yeah… same.

    If You’re Battling Burnout, Try This 1-Hour Self Care Routine

    Do you ever feel like your to-do list is endless and self-care is always the first thing to fall off? If you’ve ever told yourself, “I’ll rest when I finish this project” or “I just need to push through,” or “When I have something to celebrate, I’ll do it with self care…” Well, then this episode is for you. Alisha Robertson is on a mission to help women entrepreneurs manage their capacity and make rest a daily priority. After experiencing severe burnout, she shut down her coaching business, took a full year off, and did the deep work to redefine success. Now, as the founder of Doing Everyday Well, she’s giving women practical tools to build businesses that don’t require sacrificing their well-being. In this episode, Alisha and I are tackling how to actually schedule self-care into your daily life, why not planning around your energy leads straight to burnout, and why rest is your most profitable business strategy. If you’re tired of glorifying the hustle and ready to start prioritizing yourself, Alisha and I had YOU in mind!
