I'm sharing some fun life updates (hello Wordle obsession) and some more vulnerable ones. Plus my pure EXCITEMENT (and a few updates) for Company Retreat!!! But the bulk of this episode is a very practical look at what's actually working right now on Instagram and Threads—without chasing fast growth or burning yourself out in the process.This is a practical and honest conversation for Christian authors, coaches, and ministry-minded business owners who want to grow with integrity, steward their energy well, and stay faithful in a hard season. Because WOAH, this year has been a hard one, and I know I'm not the only one.ALL THE LINKS:001. Company Retreat (Applications + Early Bird Info)+ https://dustyhegge.com/company-retreat002.
