Marketing yourself is necessary. But what if, instead of ‘necessary evil’, it feels more like joy, justice, and medicine—for you and your audience?


Hi! I'm a first-gen immigrant, brand messaging strategist, and conversion copywriter on a mission to make your words sound like you, sell more, and harm less.

My special sauce:
-Conversion copywriting that reduces harm.
-Clear brand messaging that helps you resonate with your perfect-fit customers.
-Email campaigns that they actually read.
-Website copy that communicates your own special sauce (yep, we all have one).
-Brand voice guidelines that sounds just like you. 

Street cred:
Over many years of working in digital marketing agencies and one-on-one with clients, I’ve written copy and content for brands like:
Apple🔹lululemon🔹Deepak Chopra🔹Glennon Doyle🔹Gabrielle Bernstein🔹Layla Saad🔹A&W🔹Shaw🔹Telus World of Science🔹Purdys Chocolatier🔹LUSH🔹DUER🔹Hitcase🔹Glory Juice🔹Lighthouse Labs...and many others.

Who I'm for:
Coaches, course creators, and consultants

I’m starting an Instagram account for my business from scratch. 😅
This wasn't a “new year, new platform” move.
I thought this through for a long time.

Here’s why I’m doing it:

-ManyChat is an official IG partner, which means I can move people from IG to my mailing list and make sales without being penalized by the algo.

-With the ManyChat automation, getting ROI on my marketing is a lighter lift. 

-It’s easier than ever to be discovered by strangers at scale on IG. Let's see if I can crack that code while refusing to jump on trends that just aren't me.

-IG was my original social platform of choice. I started on LinkedIn for two personal reasons:
1) I have a chronic health condition that makes being visible (through pics/videos) online really hard.
2) I didn’t have strong enough boundaries back then and IG had a grip on me so I took a break from it in 2019.

But it’s been 7 years.
I've made huge progress on managing my condition.
I’ve done a lot of work on my boundaries.

Will starting from zero be humbling? Definitely.

Maybe it’ll be a disaster.
Maybe it’ll be a breakthrough.
Maybe I’ll love it.
Maybe I’ll hate it.

The only thing I know for sure is that I’ll learn a lot.

And I’ll be sharing the play-by-play with the Momentum community:
What worked
What flopped
How I’m juggling LinkedIn, IG, and my weekly newsletter
My systems, shortcuts, and sanity-savers

I haven't opened the account yet (starting in Feb), but when I do…what’s your IG handle?

Amy Porterfield sunsetting Digital Course Academy is NOT proof that "courses are dead", IHMO.

It’s proof that things evolve. ie. Business models, marketing channels, your audience's needs and behaviours...etc.

I don't think courses are out.
But I do think things have changed.

What’s harder now:
-Selling static courses on a topic where change is constant.
-Getting people to invest four figures with no support or human interaction.
-Selling generic advice when everyone can get that for free.
-Selling courses with broad promises. I'd argue that specificity has always sold better than broad for most people but these days, I don't think anyone can get away with broad, even the big names.
-Selling a course that doesn't answer "why should they learn this from YOU vs all the other options, including AI".

There's prolly more, but I'll stop there.

My point is, when a big name like Amy P. makes an unexpected move like that, people are quick to jump to blanket statement conclusions.
The entire internet starts yelling "PIVOTTTTTT!"

And they completely abandon an offering of theirs that they have no good reason to.
ie. Their decision isn't based on THEIR OWN business data.

Yes, the online learning landscape has changed. 
So you might need to make some changes. Maybe even major ones.

But don't assume that Amy's decision to cut out her course is best for your business, too.

I mean I just bought a course the other day.
People are still buying courses.

Where you at with selling or buying courses in 2026?

P.S. Nina Everflow is my go-to recommendation for anyone looking to update or create their course. They don't call her "The Course Whisperer" for nothing.

2026 is the year we track our marketing! Who’s with me??

I’ve officially stepped into my alter ego: Nerdy Nat 🤓

She’s currently creating a UTM strategy.
She’s not afraid of spreadsheets.
She’s over-the-top curious about tracking links.

Nerdy Nat can’t wait to collect data and be all organized about it so she can see:

-What’s actually moving the needle
-What needs to be ditched
-What needs to be tweaked
-What has to be doubled down on

Especially as she forays into Instagram marketing land this February.

Nerdy Nat demands receipts.
Nerdy Nat demands clarity.

But most of all, she’s thrilled about the alliteration in her name. 🤪

Founders, if you’re serious about growing your business through content, you gotta start tracking.

I know, I know.
I resisted tracking for years because it reminded me of my days working in corporate. 
Because I thought it would suck the joy out of posting.
I thought it would make the process of content creation inauthentic because decisions would be driven by numbers.
I thought it would make me obsessed with vanity metrics.

But the data-less approach is the soul-sucking one.

Because you don’t know what’s working and what’s exhausting you for no return.
You can’t intentionally double down nor confidently decide what's not worth doing again.
And your learning process is either non-existent or a looooot slower.

So nowadays I’m all for tracking in service of making content creation fruitful and sustainable.

Here’s what I’ll be helping my Momentum members track so that they can make smarter marketing decisions this year. ⤵️

Ease:
From a scale of 1-5, how hard did this feel to create?


Alignment:
How many pieces of content were not in alignment with my offerings/brand/business goals?


Lead indicators, aka the actions you commit to, like:
Number of posts published 
Number of emails sent
How many ideas you repurposed


Lag indicators, aka the results of your actions, like:
# of email subscribers
# of inbound leads
# of saves
# of opportunities created (podcast invites, collabs, speaker invites)

Tracking allows for better outcomes. Which is rather joy-giving, no?

If you’re still hesitant to start tracking, I’d love to hear why.
If you’ve been a long-time track star, would you share a tip that’s worked well for you?

I spy a GIANT gap between your big hairy marketing ambitions and your ability to follow-through. 😬

Let's create your anti-burnout plan. ⤵️

Create your anti-burnout marketing plan

Which of these platforms do you use to learn about marketing or to stay in the loop with a marketing voice that you follow? 
(List in order of where you spend the most time to the least.)

a) LinkedIn 
b) Email / newsletters
c) Instagram
d) YouTube
e) Podcasts
f) Other? 


Asking cuz I’m rethinking where certain conversations belong—and your answer might help me meet people where they already are.

P.S. I'm staying on LinkedIn, in case you thought I was leaving.
