When I first started creating content, even earning a few pounds online felt magical.
But...
I massively underpriced myself.
In this episode, I talk about how my self-worth got tangled up with follower numbers, and how long it took to finally feel confident charging what my work is worth.
After more than 750 videos and passing 100,000 followers, Iâve realised that real value doesnât come from viral hits - it comes from showing up to help people over and over again.
Iâll also break down:
đŻ Why you shouldnât price low out of fear
đŻ The difference between performative marketing and genuine branding
đŻ How posting daily discovery content built the foundation for everything weâve done
Whether youâre just starting out or youâre stuck undervaluing your expertise â this episode is for you.

Sounds ridiculous, right?
But every coach or consultant should do exactly that.
In this episode, I share how recording podcasts â even with zero listeners â can help you find your real voice, sharpen your thinking, and even train AI to write in your exact tone.
Iâll tell you the story of how Christy and I were stuck writing a new landing page until I realised the best copy weâd ever written was already sitting in my podcast transcripts.
đ§ Give this a listen â and then go record something that no one else ever hears.
Youâll be amazed at what it unlocks.

The Overload of Online Advice: When you're scrolling through social media, you hear things that pull you in different directions and pull you apart. My advice is to choose the people who resonate with you the most and then really run for it. If you try to take advice from multiple people, you're going to be running in different directions, and you'll get nowhere.
The Power of a Singular Vision: I've seen this firsthand when I've created video adverts for different companies. The best adverts I've made for clients come from a place where we've taken all of their views on board at the start, and then I've been given free reign to take control of the creative process. I've also been in rooms where we've done rebranding for companies. I've known a company go away and collect feedback from 30 people, and their vision slowly turned more "beige" as a result. The final product was, frankly, a bit "crap". It's like the Homer Simpson car he designed years agoâit was a million thoughts rolled into one, and it just didn't work. You've got to have one person's creative vision. That's why Steve Jobs was so good. He may have been an absolute nightmare to work with, but his vision was so strong and singular that it just worked.
Create for Yourself, Not the Algorithm: I truly believe that creating will be consuming every time you do it. I made a short video this week because I believe you should create for yourself rather than the algorithm. The more you create, the better you're going to get. There's a guy in my community who helps barbers, and he committed to a 30-day series. His content is already so much better just because he's been creating and creating. If you just create brilliant content for a long time, your audience is going to build no matter what. The algorithm will eventually pick up on you, and the real people behind it can look at all your content and find the value in it.
How to Choose Your Mentors: I think it's so important to choose your mentors with care. You can add to them or change them, but you have to think: who really resonates with me? For me, I really like Chris Do from The Future for Creative Entrepreneurship. I've also looked towards Xinjiang for negotiating, Chris Voss for Manychat automations, and Gannon Meyer for community building. I want you to try and filter your social media feed this week. If you're getting alternative advice that's pulling you in two directions, that's not a good thing. You probably can't do both of those pieces of advice in one go, so choose a path and really go for it. It's like driving a car: if you turn the wheel and you're not moving, it's not going to change your course. If you're in motion, you're going to get to a destination. I'm a better creator now because I know what to ignore, and it's also helping my mental health.
Let me know who you choose as your mentors! I'll be interested to find out if they're the same as mine.

After a holiday reset in Greece, Chris Goor is back with fresh perspectiveâand a manifesto for creators who want to do more than chase views.

This week on The Studio Sessions, Chris Goor unpacks two powerful ideas that can reshape the way you build and sell your personal brand:
Build Bridges, Not Labels - Most creators make the mistake of selling what they do instead of what they deliver. Chris explains how to think of your offers as bridges that take your audience from where they are now to where they want to be. This shift can help you create better lead magnets, design stronger offers, and build a business that actually helps people.
Play for Fun, Not Just for the Algorithm - Inspired by a Simon Sinek story about top tennis players, Chris explores why the most successful creators are the ones who enjoy the process. You'll hear how heâs stopped chasing trends and started creating content that lights him up - and why that mindset shift could be the secret to your longevity too.
