Today I'd like to do something a little different on the podcast. I'd like to share 6 quick things you can implement on your website to improve your SEO, and each task should take about 20 minutes or less to complete.
My goal here is to just share a few super common things I see come up again and again when I'm auditing websites that are relatively simple to change.
If you're an experienced blogger, hopefully, you already have most of these things in place already, but I also know that sometimes it's easy to get tunnel vision on your site and forget about some of the basics.
So let's go through the 6 quick tasks and hopefully at least one, if not all of them, will apply to you and give you a nice little website improvement this week!

This week's conversation is a fun one. I'm chatting with Cynthia Samanian, founder of Culinary Creator Business School, about the importance of teaching online before you feel ready. And I would bet that this resonates with a lot of you listeners out there right now.
Maybe you're excited about the idea of creating an online course or a membership or a digital good or whatever, but you just haven't taken that first step yet. Maybe you're feeling a little bit of imposter syndrome or you're lacking a little clarity on your niche. But whatever it is, you just haven't quite taken action yet.
Well, Cynthia kind of turns the idea of teaching on its head. Instead of making teaching online this big intimidating, formal thing, she reminds us that there are actually three stages to teaching online and you only need to focus on the one you're currently at.
Give this episode a listen to hear all of Cynthia's advice and tips for how to get started teaching online.

To celebrate my birthday this year, I asked people both in both of my Facebook groups if they had any questions for me — personal questions, business questions, life questions, whatever.
If they dropped any questions in the post, I promised I would try to answer them in this podcast episode. So that's what I'm doing today.
Sit back, relax, and enjoy my (now belated) happy birthday ask-me-anything episode!

In this episode, I'm chatting with fellow dietitian blogger, Chrissy Carroll, about all things AI. Chrissy recently attended an AI conference and then joined me on this podcast to share her key takeaways from the event.
First, we chat about why Chrissy decided to attend an AI conference as a dietitian blogger and whether or not there was anyone else in even remotely similar fields that she met there. We talk about what she hoped to learn by attending and some of the key takeaways that she gleaned from the speakers.
We then transition to talk about how Chrissy is currently using AI in her blogging workflow, and we hypothesize a bit on where AI may be headed in the future and how it might impact bloggers in the food and wellness space. We end with some recommendations from Chrissy on where we can go to learn more about AI. Have a listen now!

One of the more common questions I get as an online business owner who creates content is, "How do you decide what content you put out for free and what content is paid?"
If you're putting out a bunch of information on social media, YouTube, a podcast, or blog, why would someone buy from you? Wouldn't giving away all the goods hurt your bottom line?
That's the line of questioning that typically comes up when we talk about free versus paid content.
So in this episode, I want to give you six tips for understanding the differences between free and paid content and how they play together.
