Ever feel like you’re doing everything right but still feel stuck—in your body, your business, or your content routine? In this refreshingly honest conversation, I chat with Laura Conley, the fun weight loss coach behind the Yummy Mummy Method, about what it really takes to feel confident, energized, and visible as a content creator or entrepreneur. We talk about unlearning diet culture, rejecting mom guilt, and what it means to build a life that actually feels good (not just looks good online).

Laura shares how she grew her coaching business with a low-lift content strategy, how she uses Instagram stories to drive trust and sales, and why showing up imperfectly can be your most powerful move. Whether you’re deep in motherhood or just trying to show up online with more joy, this episode is your permission slip to do it differently.

Season 2 of Silly Little Social is officially here—and I’m kicking things off with a solo episode breaking down Instagram’s brand-new Edits app. This creative tool launched just a week ago, and it’s already changing the way creators plan, edit, and analyze content. In this episode, I walk you through everything I’ve seen so far: from bonus analytics to algorithm rumors, sticky notes to trending audio features, and whether it’s worth editing your next reel in the app. Let’s get into it.
