We're back!!!

After an August break, I’m SO excited to be back! In this episode, I dive into a brand-new Buffer report that analyzed 27 million Instagram posts and the findings might surprise you. From how often to post (spoiler: 3–5x per week = double the growth) to the surprising performance difference between Reels and carousels, I break down what “good” engagement really means and how to build a content strategy that works.

On the mindset side, I’m sharing reflections from The Alchemist, specifically how the desires in our hearts are there for a reason. If you’ve been feeling stuck or uncertain in your journey, this episode is a reminder to reconnect with your purpose and trust that the universe is conspiring to help you.

✨ Marketing momentum. ✨ Mindset clarity. ✨ All in under 10 minutes.

So grab a glass and let's chat!

Hey y'all! 👋 It’s August, and I wanted to let you know that Bubbles & Biz is taking a short summer break before coming back refreshed and ready for an exciting fall season. 🫶

In this episode, I shares why I'm pressing pause for the month! I have been fighting off a lingering cough, savoring the last days of summer with family, making some podcast updates and gearing up for a strong September comeback 🔥

I also drop a few quick marketing updates you’ll want to know:

• Instagram’s Edits App: Why using it could boost your Reels reach.

• Google & AI Content: Why human involvement is still essential for ranking and reader trust.

• AI Search Updates: How Google’s AI is pulling and displaying content differently (with a blog on https://nb.marketing/blog for more details).

And for this week’s mindset tip? I open up about the power of rest. Even for entrepreneurs who feel wired to hustle, taking time to slow down can lead to more creativity, clarity, and joy. I encourage you to listen to your intuition, embrace the pause, and trust that amazing things can still happen in the background. ❤️

The podcast turns six years old this month, and I am SO grateful for every listener and guest who have been part of this incredible journey! 🥂

See y'all in September! 🍂🏈

This week on Bubbles & Biz: Marketing + Mindset Monday, I'm diving into two big topics that every entrepreneur should care about: smart PR moves and deep mindset work 🧠

First up, we look at how Ryan Reynolds’ ad agency, Maximum Effort, teamed up with Gwyneth Paltrow to help a brand turn a viral mishap into a clever PR opportunity 🚀

Then, we shift gears to explore the power of subconscious programming and I share a little of my personal journey of uncovering and rewiring deep-seated beliefs, explaining why true transformation goes beyond surface-level affirmations and into the operating system of your mind. ✨

If you’ve been working on your mindset but still feel “stuck,” this episode is for you 🫶
