Details

Welcome my bloggy friends! Let's talk about all things blogging. On this show, I plan to share what I'm doing, what I see working, what's not, and a lot more. Occasionally, I will bring my bloggy friends on the show to talk about what's going on their part of the blogosphere. My goal? Help educate, inspire, and connect bloggers in this wild world of content creation so we can meet our goals that much faster. And hey, who couldn't use more friends, am I right?

Denise Duffield-Thomas on Money Blocks, Ballet, and Being a Contributor, Not a Guru
Money mindset expert Denise Duffield-Thomas has built a huge business, and the win she's proudest of right now is passing her pointe shoe assessment at 47. In this honest, funny conversation, she tells me why she went back to ballet, how she stays sane as an introvert with a big audience, and what she's learning now that she's checked off most of her big life goals. Denise is the founder of Money Boot Camp and the author of Chill and Prosper. She's also the reason I started my own podcast. Her line "be a contributor, not a guru" gave me the courage to share my story without pretending to be an expert, and I finally got to thank her for it.

The Ad Strategist's Guide to Growing on Facebook Right Now
Facebook quietly rewrote its own rules, and most creators haven't caught on yet. Amanda Bond, the strategist behind The Ad Strategist, explains how a sudden shift toward TikTok-style discoverability let her drive 23,000 visits to a single blog post and helped a brand-new page hit 100,000 followers in weeks. In this episode, Amanda breaks down what changed in Facebook's algorithm starting in August 2025, why posting frequency now matters more than ever, and how she uses Creator Studio insights to find the exact content people are already searching for. She and Ashley get into the real mechanics of growing an audience from scratch: testing every post format, tracking reach and link clicks, doubling down on what already works, and using Facebook traffic to boost search rankings on your own blog. It's a practical, no-fluff conversation for anyone building a page, a business, or a personal brand on Facebook right now.
