  • Connect Through Words: Marketing with Heart and Strategy with Rachel Allen
    Nov 14 2025

    Marketing that converts isn’t about louder posts or cut-and-paste avatars. It’s about words that work like assets—clear, human, and grounded in what buyers actually care about. We sit down with copywriter and strategist Rachel Allen, whose globe-trotting path from a Hong Kong hustle to a thriving practice shaped a no-nonsense approach to positioning, storytelling, and using AI without losing your voice.

    We start by dismantling the half-page “ideal client” myth and replace it with psychographics and lived context—beliefs, pressures, and change moments that drive decisions.

    Rachel lays out the four essentials behind every sale

    right thing, right person, right time, right way

    and explains why you only control a couple of them.

    • shifting from demographics to psychographics
    • the four rights and why control is limited
    • positioning that states what it is and why it matters
    • storytelling as a memory and trust tool
    • AI as research and drafting support, not a crutch

  • Digital Boundaries, Focus, Freedom with Kelsey Green
    Oct 17 2025

    What if the simplest boundary—phone away, head up—could be the lever that changes your work, your relationships, and your peace of mind? I am chatting to speaker and community strategist Kelsey Green to unpack digital minimalism without the guilt trip, exploring how small, repeatable choices create space for deep work and genuine connection.

    Your attention is your edge; let’s protect it together.

    We explore how intentional digital boundaries can restore focus, lift creative energy and rebuild in‑person community. Kelsey Green shares tools, stories and a simple structure that turns good intentions into repeatable habits and meaningful progress.

    • digital minimalism as a path to focus and calm
    • the dopamine cost of constant scrolling and pings
    • simple baby steps like phone out of sight and screen‑free blocks
    • evenings and mornings as anchors for deep work
    • rebuilding in‑person community and conversation skills
    • parasocial relationships versus real friendships
    • accountability as fuel for consistency and momentum
    • Summit in Six: community, accountability and focus to finish big goals

    https://www.kelseylgreen.com/Summit-In-Six

    Summit in Six is a six-month, high-accountability mastermind for women entrepreneurs and creators. Each participant commits to one bold goal, like launching a podcast, writing a book, or starting a business, and achieves it through structure, support, and a force-multiplier community. The program includes twice-monthly group calls, momentum bonuses, and ongoing support to keep momentum high.
