No seriously Reader...think about it. There was a time in Instagram history when you needed 10,000 followers just to get the swipe-up feature. I remember working my butt off to hit that goal early on in my business. I even had a photo shoot to celebrate when I finally hit 10K! 😅 Back then, growth wasn’t a primary goal for me, but sis I was determined to unlock that swipe-up feature to sell my offers easily. Here’s the thing—times have changed, and so have the ways we can use stories to sell. Now, with just a few strategic moves, you can turn your stories into a powerful selling tool. Before tomorrow’s Selling with Stories live learning lab exclusively hosted in CCA, I want to call out a few red flags that might be holding you back from truly leveraging your stories to their full potential. ...but before we dive into them, if you haven't secured your spot, CLICK HERE TO RSVP. I've already posted your pre-work within our CCA Community to get done before tomorrow's class. If any of these sound familiar, don’t worry. This is a judgment-free zone. But consider this your nudge to be in the room tomorrow. 🚩 Red Flag #1: Your Stories Aren’t Clear on How to Work with YouYou share a lot of valuable content, maybe some behind-the-scenes or your day-to-day, but it’s still unclear how your audience can actually work with you. If they can’t figure out how to pay you, it’s time to make some changes. ASAP. 🚩 Red Flag #2: Your Stories Lack VarietyAre you posting the same daily routine, the same desk setup, or just resharing your feed content to your stories? It’s easy for your audience to scroll past if there’s no variety. Remember, stories are a place to mix things up and keep your audience engaged. 🚩 Red Flag #3: You’re Overthinking the Little ThingsYou might be hesitant to share the behind-the-scenes of your offer or the small details that actually make a big impact. You don’t need grand gestures—sometimes it’s the little things that resonate most with your audience. 🚩 Red Flag #4: You’re Overcomplicating (or Lacking Confidence in) Selling in StoriesSelling in your stories doesn’t have to be complex. There are so many ways to do it effectively, and the key is finding what works best for you.

Dear diary—I mean, Reader... Lately I’ve been catching myself in the gap. The gap between who I say I want to be… and how I’m actually showing up. Here’s what I mean. With my team, I’ve been tossing tasks into Slack like confetti. Things falling through the cracks, projects half-tracked. And then I had to stop and ask myself: if I say I’m building a multi-million-dollar business, why am I running it like a side hustle? So I’ve been building out a CRM. A real system. Pipelines, tasks, client...
Motivation will leave you broke. Reader, I say that with love. Because if you’re waiting for the feeling to create content, you’ll always be waiting. That’s why I believe in batching. Not because it’s rigid. But because it creates freedom. Freedom to play when inspiration strikes. Freedom to stay present with your family. Freedom to have sales coming in—without having to live online. This hit me hard after having my daughter. It’s way too easy to spend the whole day kissing baby toes and then...
Reader, it's been a full season. A season of reflecting, rethinking, and remembering what I love in my business—and what I want to release. We just passed the five-year mark. That feels monumental.

And I want to remind you: silence doesn’t mean something’s wrong. Sometimes it’s the space you need to tune back...
