☕ there's not enough duct tape in the world


Can I be blunt? F*ck it, it's my newsletter. I'll be blunt.

If following the tips, tricks, and trends you saved on social media were the answer to your problems, you wouldn’t still feel this stuck.

You wouldn’t be questioning why your content looks fine but feels off.

You wouldn’t be wondering why clients love you but strangers scroll right past.

You wouldn't be second guessing if maybe you should switch your visuals up....again.

Truth? No trend or tactic will save a brand that’s unclear.

And no amount of content tweaks will fix a brand that's lacking direction.

→ You don’t need another Canva template.

→ You don’t need another caption prompt.

→ You don’t need another visual cue or viral hook.

You need clarity. You need cohesion.

You need a brand that feels like home, so when you speak...your people hear it, get it, and want more of you.

Because when your brand makes sense, your content starts working overtime.

Your content starts doing the attracting and the nurturing for you, so your best-fit clients not only find you, but know you're the one they need to work with before they ever book that discovery call.

That's what your content should be doing for you.

But you're never going to get to that point if you're jumping around, clinging to tactic after tactic like they're life preservers.

Because even if you're following all the right tactics, it means jack sh*t without a sustainable strategy.

My goal is to be the clarity-maker in your corner.

The strategist who helps you rebuild your brand from the inside out so every word, every post, every piece of content works harder because it’s rooted in something real.

So if you’re ready to stop duct-taping your content together and finally create a strategy that reflects who you’ve become, let's chat.

Have you noticed your IG and TikTok feeds are starting to feel a little like Netflix, except instead of a cozy binge night, you’re just… dropped into a show mid-season. You open your app, and bam...someone’s posting “Day 4 of XYZ,” and you have no idea what happened on Days 1–3. But suddenly you’re tapping over to their profile, scrolling backward like a digital detective trying to piece together the full plot? Samesies. And you can expect more of it because we’ve officially entered the era...

Ever done a “quick market-research scroll” and wound up questioning your whole business? There you are, mid-day social scroll, iced latte sweating on your desk, when one of your competitors pops up selling half your deliverables for double your rate. Say whaaaat? Queue the mental spiraling. ✨ "How does she justify that? Her results aren't any better than mine?" "Maybe people aren't actually buying? Maybe she's getting pushback..." "Wait, what if I doubled my rates? Could I finally take a...

I'd put money on the fact that you're probably making your content strategy much more convoluted than it needs to be. I see so many of you stressing about things like the best days to post, the best times to post, or the best way to shuffle through your content topics. Can I be totally honest with you? None of that really matters. Now I won't lie to you. When I first started creating content for my business, I was biggg time into the idea of "talk about this content pillar on this day, and...
