You're not bad at this. The rules just changed — and nobody handed you the new ones.

If you've been creating content and watching it flop — or you repost something that used to crush and now it barely gets seen — this episode is for you. Erika breaks down exactly what shifted between 2022 and 2026, and why the way you create content now matters more than anything else.

Inside this episode:

– Why the market isn't oversaturated (the real problem is your audience's fried attention span)

– The shift from social media to interest-based media — and why your content is now being shown to total strangers

– The one question that fixes 90% of your content: "Why would someone who doesn't know me care about this?"

– What good content actually requires in 2026: context, curiosity, and the right format

– Why the Canva graphic that used to get 200 likes now gets 10 — and what to do instead

– Why this is especially good news if you already have a business or expertise (your gap isn't your knowledge — it's your format and delivery)
