Social media. Love it or loathe it, it’s kinda a must-have for business these days. But what if the thought of showing up online makes you cringe? If posting feels forced, salesy, or just plain exhausting, you’re not alone. The good news? You can make social media work for you without feeling gross about it.
Ditch the ‘ick’ and start showing up in a way that feels good.
Step 1: Curate Your Feed Like a Pro
If scrolling social media makes you roll your eyes more than it sparks inspiration, it’s time for a clean-up. Unfollow accounts that drain you. Mute the noise. Train the magical algorithm to bring you content that actually makes you smile, think, or create.
Your social feed should feel like a place you want to hang out, not a chaotic mess of ‘buy this now!’ posts and unedited AI-generated nonsense.
Step 2: Notice What Grabs Your Attention
What makes you stop scrolling? A relatable story? A joke? A behind-the-scenes peek at someone’s life?
Chances are, the content you enjoy most is real, engaging, and human. And guess what? That’s exactly what your audience wants from you, too. Use that insight to guide what you post—think less “marketing” and more “conversation.”
Step 3: Show Up as You
Your business isn't just about what you sell—it's about who you are. People want to connect with real humans, not faceless brands.
So, stop overthinking. Ditch the perfectly polished, corporate-sounding captions. Share your thoughts, your experiences, your wins (and even your flops). The right people will love it—and they’ll love working with you because of it.
Social media doesn’t have to feel icky. When you show up as yourself, tell your stories, and connect in a way that feels natural, you’ll attract people who get you. And if someone doesn’t? They can scroll right on by.
