The Grind & Be Grateful Podcast With Marie Wold

There’s a common belief I see floating around Instagram way too often, and it’s the idea that the ALGORITHM is out to get you. It’s easy to blame the algorithm when you aren’t seeing the level of engagement you deserve, but the truth is the algorithm doesn’t care about you more than it does anyone else. If you want to WIN on Instagram, you need to know the rules of the game. In today’s episode, I’m breaking down how Instagram’s algorithm works so you can put your grudge against it to rest. I’ll also share 5 proven engagement hacks that are so simple, you can start implementing them immediately. It’s time to shift our mindset around the algorithm and start working with it, not against it. Are you ready? Let’s go! Resources: Content Boss doors are OPEN!

Instagram is such a POWERFUL platform for monetization. I would even argue that it is the top social media platform for growing a profitable and sustainable online business. To prove my point, I’ve made over $1 million on Instagram (true story)! But to anchor this information in indisputable facts, Instagram has 1 billion active users each month, and 81% of them use Instagram to research products and services. Which means people are already on Instagram looking for things to buy. In today’s episode, I’m diving into all the juicy details you need to know to harness the power of Instagram. I share how my brand has changed and evolved over time and how I was able to monetize regardless of niche. I take a look back on my range of products and how I made my first million in sales without any ads or fancy funnels, but by using my five signature content goals framework. If you’re an influencer, entrepreneur, or business owner looking to make it to the 7-figure mark, or maybe you’re just ready to start monetizing

Today, we’re talking about something that could be a little taboo--PLASTIC SURGERY. If you’ve been listening to my podcast and following me on social media for some time, you know I always keep it REAL and TRANSPARENT.

I feel like I have experienced and shifted into many different perspectives when it comes to elective and aesthetic procedures.

Being an ambitious female entrepreneur is AMAZING. And of course, being successful is amazing as well. But let’s face it, entrepreneurship isn’t all rainbows and butterflies.

In full transparency, I have set and HIT some massive goals since I started my business. And my new goals are only getting bigger and scarier as I grow.

Having the right MINDSET and daily ACTIONS are just as important as having the right knowledge and information. In this episode, I’m sharing my go-to ritual whenever I’m getting ready to conquer a new goal. I share the #1 question I ask myself, how I use this question to get clear on my next steps, and how I use it to break the process down into smaller, actionable steps. The process I share in this episode will help you level up and accomplish any goals you have set for yourself and your business. All you have to do is tune in, and as Troy Bolton says… “get your head in the game.”   Resources:   Follow Marie: https://www.instagram.com/marieewold/ Online Coach Kickstart: https://mariewold.clickfunnels.com/online-coach-kickstart3366190

Wouldn’t it be sexy and exciting if I told you that my online coaching empire was an overnight success? Spoiler alert: It wasn’t. And because I’ve always been transparent, I’m spilling it all in this episode. I’m sharing everything from what went well, what did not go well, the mistakes I made, the things I would’ve done differently, and the actual takeaways of my journey so that you don't have to make the same mistakes that I did. When I first started my online coaching business, there was nothing like Online Coach Kickstart that showed me the road map to success. And as a resourceful person, I had to figure everything out on my own. But to be honest… it was a disaster. It was so bad, I had to tear my WHOLE business down and rebuild it from scratch with the help of a business coach. I took the leap, invested in a coach, committed to treating my business like a BUSINESS (instead of a hobby), and focused on rebuilding things the RIGHT way. So grab a pen and paper and start taking notes. I’m sharing all the

Success is something we ALL want. But despite what you might think, success comes with obstacles of its own too. After hitting milestones and celebrating wins over the years, I learned 3 major things about becoming successful that nobody tells you about. In this episode, I’m unmasking the truth about being successful. We’re talking about how the more successful you get, the more boundaries you’ll need. I dive into why it’s so important to get comfortable with saying “no.” I also explain why building your own support system of like-minded people is so important, and how no matter how successful you are, things simply do not just get easier but you get BETTER at dealing with difficulties instead. Join me and tune in to this episode for a real, raw, behind-the-scenes look at what the landscape of success looks like and how YOU can handle it all. P.S.

Whether you have a social media presence yourself, or you’re just a spectator, I know that you’ve seen #sponsored or #ad a time or two! It’s hard to remember a time before Instagram and influencers were a regular part of our day, and today we are talking to a gal who was at the forefront of it all! This episode, we will be pulling back the curtain on all things “influencers” and using social media to grow a personal brand. Today we are hearing from Ali Grant, who launched Be Social in 2011 as one of the first agencies executing integrated influencer outreach and collaboration. The communications group is headquartered in Los Angeles specializing in digital-forward campaigns for lifestyle, wellness and beauty brands and talent. So between Ali on the agency side, and myself on the creator / influencer side, we have SO much to share about what REALLY goes on behind the scenes of brand deals, content creation, and building a personal brand.

We are mixing it up today, throwing a bonus episode your way and talking about the ten best goals to have for 2020! I know we’ve been talking a LOT about ‘new year, new me!’ and I think it’s super important to talk about what goals are going to serve us the MOST this year! It’s easy to get caught up in all of the hub-bub and excitement of the new year, and adopt everyone else’s goals even if they don’t resonate with us, or even if they’re not intentional or well thought out, so THESE goals aren’t goals that I think every single person should have or even that they’ll definitely be right for you but more so that you can try them on and see if you can commit to them yourself. I am partnering with Love Beauty and Planet to bring you this episode, and wish you a happy new year! I’ve worked alongside LBP for most of 2019, and now we’re starting 2020 off strong as well! They’re an incredible bath, hair care and overall self care brand whose mission is to spread small acts of love for both ourselves and the plan

And you can’t deny it, because you’re listening to this on some type of tech, SOMEHOW! Whether we like it or NOT, we’re a generation of SCREENS, and with screens comes BLUE LIGHT.     Work… leisure… communication… you’ve probably heard about how bad blue light is for your eyes to be exposed to around the clock, AND if you’ve hung around in my corner of the internet— you’ve probably seen me rocking my blue light blocking glasses, or heard me gushhh about my obsession with today’s guest and her business-baby— Natalie Rogers of Klassy Network, which is now a MILLION DOLLAR e-commerce business that has seen exponential growth, all because Natalie WENT FOR IT.   Get ready for Natalie to shed some LIGHT on blue light and what it takes to bu
