You’re showing up. You’ve got a website, an Instagram, maybe even tried networking or Google Ads—but the clients aren’t coming. What gives? In this episode, we’re digging into a quiet culprit behind ineffective marketing: your language.

If your copy feels generic, vague, or disconnected from how you actually show up in the room, it’s likely not doing the heavy lifting your marketing needs. I’ll walk you through why even solid strategies fall flat without the right words—and how realigned language can flip the switch from “no traction” to “my clients finally get me.”

Whether you’re DIY-ing your copy or considering a full revamp, this episode will help you understand what might be getting lost in translation—and what to do about it.

Here’s what you’ll learn in this episode:

1️⃣ Why “doing all the things” might not be the issue—and how to tell if language is your real marketing block

2️⃣ How common strategies like SEO, Google Ads, social media, and networking hinge on your words more than you think

3️⃣ What happens when your copy actually reflects your voice, your values, and your work—and how that changes everything
