In this episode, Brock Johnson breaks down whether you really need a niche in 2026 and why the answer isn’t as straightforward as most advice makes it seem. He explains how the “TikTokification” of Instagram has changed how content is distributed, why variety-based content can perform well, and how the algorithm now responds more to immediate interests than rigid niche boundaries.

Brock also covers the difference between a content niche and a business niche, how to build a loyal following without boxing yourself into one topic, and when niche clarity still matters for brands, superfans, and long-term growth. This episode is designed to help creators grow without burnout while still building a recognizable and monetizable presence on Instagram in 2026.
