Instagram rolled out a wave of updates in 2024—some useful, some forgettable. In this episode, I break down the key features that actually deserve your time, how to use them with intention, and the strategies I’m focusing on to make Instagram work smarter, not harder, in 2025.

From trial reels and carousel upgrades to phasing out hashtags and rethinking DM strategies, I dive into what works and what doesn’t. Plus, I share the shift I’m making in my own business toward promoting low-ticket offers and how that’s driving better sales conversions.

Content Strategy That Sells
Welcome to Mompreneur Mastery, the podcast that helps you create a content strategy that sells, without spending all day online or relying on pressure tactics that don’t sit right.
You don’t need to post every day, learn a dozen platforms, or chase vanity metrics while creating content that feels nothing like you.
What you do need is a real marketing strategy andclear messaging that meets people where they’re at, not where some bro-marketer says they should be. That’s the secret to converting your audience into buyers.
Here, we keep things honest, strategic, and doable so your content can connect, convert, and give you your time back.
Because more posts ≠ more sales. But the right message at the right time? That’s where the magic happens.
