From Self-Promotion to Genuine Connection: Navigating Social Media with Intention
In this podcast episode, I talk about the importance of sharing value in Facebook groups and social media platforms. I shed light on the problem with those who only show up to promote their products or services without providing any value to the group members. Intention is everything when it comes to sharing content on social media.
I hope to encourage you to focus on providing value and building genuine relationships. Though it can be a new skill to learn at first, I want to highlight the significance of sharing content that can benefit others, even if it doesn't result in immediate sales. I also recommend you check out my previous podcast, episode #35 on mastering the art of sharing value for more insights.

I also highlighted stories from my clients, like Kim, who successfully hosted events by adapting the accountability code, and Susan, who realized she needed to trust herself more to improve her business.

Ep. #117 You’re Waking Up Too Much

In this episode, I talk about the downside of "waking up too much"—overthinking, overanalyzing, and consuming too much information without taking action. Just like showing up too much can be unbalanced, constantly planning and reflecting without implementing can keep us stuck. I share examples of how this happens and explain that real growth comes when we take action, even if it’s imperfect.

Ep. #116 You’re Showing Up Too Much

In this episode of Your Loving Kick in the Pants, I dive into the difference between waking up and showing up. Lately, I’ve been networking and seeing firsthand how people take action when they truly understand accountability. But I’ve also noticed that many people overdo one side—either constantly staying busy and overwhelmed or spending too much time thinking without acting. If you’re exhausted and struggling to keep up, you might be showing up too much and neglecting reflection. True balance comes from recognizing what tasks actually belong to you and what you can let go of.
