  • Why Your Instagram Engagement Dropped (And What Actually Matters Now)

    Why Your Instagram Engagement Dropped (And What Actually Matters Now)
    Oct 13 2026

    If you’ve been wondering why your likes are down, why nobody’s engaging, and why your followers aren’t seeing your posts anymore, this episode is for you. I’m pulling up my own analytics to show you a post with 1,700 saves and only 538 likes, and explaining why likes have become one of the weakest signals on Instagram. A Metricool study of 15 million posts found reach is down 31 to 35% year over year, so a lot of what you’re seeing is the whole platform, not you. I’m breaking down what Instagram actually rewards now (watch time, sends, saves, and comments), how to give every post one main job, and the four steps I’d use to fix your engagement this week.

  • You're Doing All the Right Things... So Why Aren't You Growing on Instagram?

    You're Doing All the Right Things... So Why Aren't You Growing on Instagram?
    Oct 6 2026

    If you're posting consistently, giving good advice, and following the strategy, but your account still feels dead, this one's for you. I'm walking through what happened with my client Dr. Nicole Cain, who had 100k followers and was still losing them, zero engagement, a couple likes per post, because her content had gone completely sterile. I'm breaking down the exact difference between sterile content and content that actually grows an account, plus the four steps we used to turn her account around. In 3 months she gained 20k followers. By month 6 she was at 150k. This isn't a strategy problem, it's a personality problem, and I'm showing you exactly how to fix it.

  • Instagram Trend Report Fall 2026: 3 Trends Worth Your Time Right Now

    Instagram Trend Report Fall 2026: 3 Trends Worth Your Time Right Now
    Sep 29 2026

    It's officially fall, which means it's time for my quarterly trend report. Today I'm breaking down the three formats I'm actually watching work right now, not just trends floating around, but ones I've used myself, seen perform for my clients, and am currently watching blow up. First up, the deadline hook (think "if you want X by Thanksgiving"), which taps into real urgency heading into Q4. Then storytelling carousels, which are outperforming a lot of other content right now, especially now that you've got up to 20 slides to work with. And finally, the listicle is back, but with a twist that makes it feel personal instead of generic. I'm giving you real examples from my own account and my clients' accounts for each one, plus exactly how to pick which trend fits your business this week instead of trying to do all three at once.
