Should I Start a Substack? A No-Fluff Breakdown for Coaches, Creators, and Thought Leaders

If Substack is all over your feed and you're wondering if you should jump in, you’re not alone.

In this episode, I cut through the noise and break down exactly what you need to consider before adding (or switching to) Substack as a content and community platform. This is not about hype or trends; it’s about alignment, longevity, and choosing platforms that actually support the business model you’re building.

Whether you’re a coach, creator, or content-first entrepreneur, this episode will help you make a clean, informed decision about whether Substack fits your visibility strategy or if it’s just another shiny distraction.

This is a starting place for you where I discuss:

• What Substack is (and isn’t) when used well
• The key difference between an email list and a Substack publication
• Why most people who burn out on Substack never had a long-term strategy to begin with
• The audience-building mistake people are making on both IG and Substack
• When it’s time to start fresh on Substack and when to integrate it into your current funnel
• Who shouldn’t start a Substack (even if it seems like everyone else is)
• How I would personally use Substack to grow a values-driven, service-led brand

With love,
