The New Visibility Strategy That Doesn’t Require Hustling, Performing, Or Pretending

Let’s be honest—social media can feel like a never-ending hamster wheel, and trying to “beat the algorithm” is exhausting. That’s why I wanted to have a real conversation about an entirely different visibility strategy—one that actually works and doesn’t rely on social media at all.

In this episode, I sit down with my dear friend and media expert Susie Moore to talk about how to land incredible media opportunities that grow your audience and your email list—without needing a PR agency or a massive following. We talk about how mainstream media has shifted, why your real-life story is more than enough, and how visibility is the credibility builder most of us are overlooking.

This conversation lit me up because Susie has built a multi-million dollar business mostly on evergreen content—90% of it!—and mainstream media has been a huge driver of her success. She shares her favorite tips for pitching yourself, building trust with cold audiences, and using the media to create momentum that actually compounds.

HERE ARE THE 3 KEY TAKEAWAYS FROM THIS EPISODE:
