What if your marketing didn’t require constant posting or starting from scratch every week, and could take up a lot less time for a lot more payoff? In this episode, I’m joined by Jana Osofsky (also known as Jana O), marketing strategist for wellness practitioners and creator of the Blog First marketing ecosystem.
We talk about writing content that meets people where they are, avoiding jargon that turns patients away, and using blogs as the foundation for everything from emails to social posts. Jana also explains how to use AI thoughtfully without losing your voice, why specificity matters more than niching down, and how to create marketing that feels spacious, aligned, and effective without burning out.
What You’ll Learn:
How to turn one blog into a full month of marketing content.
How to write in a way that attracts patients in a way that makes sense to them and you.
How to use AI as a support tool–not your marketing strategist–to amplify your voice, leverage SEO and increase your credibility.

If you’ve ever felt like you’re shouting into a void on Instagram (posting, hoping for engagement, and seeing nothing in return), this episode is for you.
I’m joined by Instagram marketing expert Molly Cahill. Molly works with acupuncturists and chiropractors, helping local, brick‑and‑mortar practices use Instagram authentically and strategically to bring patients through the door.
We dig into why marketing for a local service business is actually easier in many ways than marketing an online business. We also unpack what’s actually going on with Instagram engagement in 2025, and what you should be doing instead of just chasing likes.
What you'll learn:
You don’t need thousands of followers to make Instagram work.
True engagement is less about likes and more about reach + relational action.
Real collaborations with local businesses, patient ambassadors, and micro‑influencers create visibility and trust in your immediate community.
