As we move toward the end of the year, many of us are in reflection and vision mode—looking back at what 2025 has been and thinking ahead to what we want 2026 to look and feel like in our businesses and lives. In this episode, I’m talking about one of the most important (and often misunderstood) pieces of that conversation: content creation.

I break down what “content” really is for a transformational, service-based business—not just posts on social media, not just a reel here and there—and why, going into 2026, you’re going to need content that is deeper, more intentional, and more aligned with your genius than ever before. We look at content as the foundation of your marketing, business strategy, and client attraction, and get honest about the kind of content you actually need if you want to grow a sustainable, prosperous coaching business.

I also talk about the difference between paying for leads with ads and building your business through organic visibility, and why—even if you love the idea of “using other people’s audiences”—you still need your own thought leadership, frameworks, and offers to stand on.

You’ll hear me connect this to my Yellow Brick Road client attraction system (ATTRACT–SERVE–CONVERT) and to my Genius Edge framework, because at the end of the day, everything from your offers to your workshops, talks, podcast, and live events is content. If you want 2026 to be different from 2025 in terms of revenue, reach, and impact, you’re going to have to create different content to get you there.

In this episode, we explore:

  • The difference between paid lead generation (ads) and organic visibility—and what that actually looks like in a coaching / service-based business

  • Why reels and social media posts alone are not a content or client attraction strategy, especially if you sell higher-ticket, high-touch services

  • How to think about offers as content, and why your offer needs to be a sexy, transformational journey (not just a list of sessions or modules)

  • The role of high-value, longer-form content—talks, workshops, masterclasses, podcasts, live events—in building authority, trust, and real relationships with your ideal clients

  • How your content strategy supports my Yellow Brick Road framework (ATTRACT–SERVE–CONVERT) at every step of your client pathway, from first touch to “yes”

  • A simple reverse-engineering process to look at what you want in 2026 (income, visibility, lifestyle, impact) and identify the content you’ll need to create to make it possible

  • Why 2026 will require you to “up-level” both your content game and your delivery skills—and how this connects to Your Genius Edge and my upcoming Serve & Deliver program

This episode is here to help you see your business through the lens of content: your offers, your message, your visibility, your thought leadership, your live experiences, and the way you invite people into your world. If you’re dreaming bigger for 2026, this conversation will help you get honest about what you’ll need to create—and how to start mapping that out now.
