Today’s episode is a big one. I’m finally pulling back the curtain on my new course, Create It. Pin It. Let It Work—the simple Pinterest workflow built for real life, real businesses, and real visibility.

If you’re tired of creating content that disappears in 24 hours, or you’re feeling stretched thin trying to keep up with every new social trend, this conversation is going to feel like a reset. I’m walking you through why Pinterest is becoming essential for organic marketing in 2026, what business owners keep getting wrong about it, and how a sustainable weekly system can change everything about the way you show up online.

You’ll hear the story behind the course, the myths I want you to stop believing, and the exact shifts happening in the marketing world that make Pinterest the smartest move for small business owners right now.

If visibility is on your vision board for 2026, this is your sign to build a search-driven strategy that doesn’t require you to be glued to your phone. Let’s make your content work harder… so you don’t have to.

In this episode, I sit down with Amy from Hello & Co. to talk about something every small business owner quietly stresses about… their website copy. We go deep into why good copy matters, what actually keeps people reading, and why design alone will never carry the weight of your message.

We also get real about the big question floating around the online business world: Is AI coming for copywriters? Amy and I break down what AI can help with, where it falls flat, and why human connection and real storytelling still win every time.

If you’ve ever stared at your website and thought “this just doesn’t sound like me,” or wondered when it’s time to hire a copywriter vs. DIY, this episode gives you the clarity you’ve been craving.

We talk about: • what makes website copy actually convert • when DIY copy stops working • the difference between “pretty words” and strategic messaging • how personality, tone, and connection impact sales • using AI as a tool without losing your voice • why great copy transforms the way people experience your business

Whether you’re updating your site, prepping for a rebrand, or trying to attract better-fit clients, this conversation will shift the way you think about the words on your website.

This week I’m sharing something a little different—I was recently interviewed on the Light Her Up Podcast and loved the conversation so much that I had to bring it here for you, too.

We talk about what it really looks like to juggle corporate finance, motherhood, and building a business in the margins of everyday life. I share how I went from designing custom planners to running P&W Designs—branding, web design, and SEO—and why teaching clients the “why” behind their website is non-negotiable.

Inside this episode, you’ll hear:

• The messy but practical beginnings of my business (and why starting small matters)

• How SEO completely shifted my approach to web design

• Simple nervous system tools I use when anxiety creeps in

• The power of community and why honest client education shortens the path to results

If you’re the visionary juggling a full plate and craving momentum without waiting for “perfect,” this one’s for you.

A beautiful website doesn’t guarantee new clients—if Google can’t find you, neither can they. In fact, 96% of web pages get zero organic traffic. That’s why learning how to check if your website is showing up on Google is one of the most important steps you can take as a business owner.

In this episode, I’m sharing a simple, beginner-friendly SEO check you can do today to see if your site is visible online. I’ll walk you through the exact SEO tools for small business owners—like Google Search Console, Google Analytics, and Ubersuggest—so you can finally understand how people are (or aren’t) finding you.

You’ll also hear about common mistakes that keep websites hidden, including missing keywords, weak meta descriptions, and thin content. And most importantly, I’ll give you actionable SEO tips you can start using right away—like updating a single page with a targeted keyword or submitting your sitemap to Google.

If you’ve been wondering why your website isn’t bringing in traffic or leads, this episode will give you clarity, direction, and the confidence to take control of your visibility.

Because your dream clients are already searching online. The question is—are they finding you?

In this episode, I’m sitting down with Christine (CJ), the heart and hands behind Massage by CJ in Minnesota. Her journey into massage started after a childhood accident opened her eyes to the power of healing—and over the years, she’s built a practice rooted in listening, intuition, and creating exactly what each client needs.

CJ and I also pull back the curtain on what it was like to build her brand and website together, and how learning the ins and outs of SEO shifted the way she thinks about showing up for her business.

This conversation is part personal story, part behind-the-scenes business growth—and it’s packed with takeaways for anyone who wants their work to connect with the people who need it most.

If you’re local to Lake Minnetonka, you’ll want to book a session with CJ at massagebycj.com. And if you’re a small business owner, you’ll walk away inspired to think differently about your own brand and online presence.
