You know what doesn’t get likes?
→ Following up when no one responded the first time.
→ Saying the same story in a slightly better way.
→ Making content even when you're not in the mood.
→ Building systems so your business runs on something other than willpower.This week, we’re talking about the stuff no one claps for—but that actually keeps a business alive.
Because the truth is: most people are chasing hype.
But hype doesn’t hold your business together—systems do.In this episode, we’re diving into:
What most people skip because it’s not flashy (and why that’s stalling their growth)The unsexy habits we’ve built behind the scenes that actually scaleWhy “consistency” isn’t the goal—repeatability isWhat we rely on during messy weeks, low-energy days, or when life just isn’t vibingThis is your permission to stop scrambling… and start building something that lasts.
Because sustainable success isn’t loud.
But it is the reason we’re still here._________________________________________________________________________________________________

This week, we’re calling out the real network marketing ICKS.
Not the surface stuff… the behind-the-scenes habits that quietly chip away at trust, credibility, and leadership energy.
This episode isn’t about throwing shade.
It’s about cleaning it up so we can lead in a way that actually builds belief in this business model again.We’re breaking down:
🚩 Asking your downline to order just so you can hit rank
🚩 Shouting out big ranks like it was “just consistency” (when it wasn’t)
🚩 Using old before/afters to promote a new product
🚩 Celebrating only the top 1%—and leaving the rest invisible
🚩 Jumping from company to company like it’s a new pair of leggings
🚩 And that awkward phase when all your content becomes subtle jabs at the company you just left 😬🚩 And yes even going to talk collagen and peptide wars 🤣
But we don’t stop there.
We’re also giving you better ways to lead:
✨ What to say instead
✨ And how to shift from “ick” to integrityThis is the leadership glow-up the industry needs.

It’s not the algorithm.
It’s not that your story isn’t powerful.
It’s your visuals.This week, we’re calling out the brand killer no one talks about: lazy images, cropped-out faces, 2010 party dresses, and content that looks like a potato. 🥔💀
And we’re joined by special guest Sarah Nimarota, a top leader who recently grew her Instagram from a few thousand followers to almost 20K.
If you want to build a magnetic brand and a business people trust, you can’t ghost the visual side of your presence.

✨ Why skipping fresh photos and video is costing you credibility
✨ The line between relatable and forgettable
✨ Simple fixes to upgrade your vibe (no pro gear needed)
✨ Smart ways to reuse content without looking stuck in 2019
✨ Why your image isn’t vanity—it’s trustThis isn’t about perfection. It’s about presence.
Because if your audience can’t see you—they’re not buying from you.🎧 Press play now and get ready to glow up your brand energy.

On this episode, we dive into the harsh truth about typical onboarding: It’s setting your new team members up for failure. Too often, we send them out to face rejection without the right tools, and that’s why so many people quit so quickly.
But what if you could change that?
When you onboard using attraction marketing, you're creating a pull energy rather than push. This is the key to setting your team up for success. By having new recruits attract leads, they build confidence, and they don’t burn out. It’s about working smarter, not harder.
In this episode, we walk you through what a social media launch can look like and how you can set it up to not only create success but to duplicate that success across your team.
Learn the simple steps to give your new team members a win on Day 1 and how to use attraction marketing to start building momentum right away.
Tune in to get the strategies you need to help your new recruits thrive!

There’s a myth that’s been circulating in the network marketing world: If you just work your butt off for five years, you’ll never have to work again.
We're here to call BS on that. 🛑
In this episode, we’re debunking the freedom myth. Freedom in network marketing isn’t about working for 5 years straight and then checking out for good. It's about creating a purpose-driven life, finding a work-life balance, and building a business that aligns with the lifestyle you truly want.
You’re not looking for “freedom from work”—you’re looking for the freedom to choose how you spend your time. Whether that’s slowing down in the mornings, setting your own schedule, or choosing when and where you work.
True freedom doesn’t mean never working again; it means having the control to work on your terms, doing what you love, and living life on your own schedule.
🎧 Tune in to get the real story about what freedom in network marketing looks like—and why it’s not about chasing an escape.

Why are so many network marketers scared of collaboration? Why do leaders hoard ideas, protect their strategies like trade secrets, and operate like there's only one seat at the table?

We’re breaking down:
Why leaders don’t share (and how to break that cycle)What it looks like to create a culture of collaboration on your teamHow we built 7-figure businesses by sharing what actually worksHow to spot the difference between competition and collective growthIf you’ve ever felt like you had to figure it all out alone—this episode is your permission slip to stop.
