Fixing Your Relationship With Instagram: Boundaries, Burnout + Comparison

In this episode of the Best Coach Ever podcast, we’re getting real about a love-hate relationship we all have—social media. Whether you’re obsessing over it, avoiding it like an ex, or just straight-up confused by it, one thing’s for sure: it’s a non-negotiable for running an online business.

We’re tackling the mess that is showing up online—from content burnout to feeling like we’re talking to a brick wall. And because we’re not here for wasted effort, we’re spilling the mindset shifts, strategies, and engagement hacks that actually move the needle—so you can create content that feels good, attracts the right people, and, oh yeah, makes you money.
