How to Start Conversations with Potential Clients on Social Media without Appearing Creepy, Annoying, or Salesy EP225


Are you being an unintentional CREEP?

I get at least 5-10 DMs a day that read something like this:

“Girl I love your feed! I see you’re a busy boss babe, and it can be hard to fit in proper nutrition to keep you going. I’d love to offer you a free 15-minute nutrition consulting call, and share how I can get you feeling your best.”

For the record, she lost me right at “I see you’re a busy boss babe.” It reeked of insincerity and felt like I was being sold to. Would someone ever say this sentence in real life while waiting for a cocktail?

I repeat, I do not want you sending these types of messages to anyone, it’s a waste of your time and they don’t work.

Many of you have this belief, that in order to get clients and cash on social media, you have to do this type of DM outreach, which is also why you are so resistant to starting or even growing your business.

Let me be clear, you do not need to send any messages of any kind that feel empty, gross, or annoying to you in order for you to be successful.

I have NEVER in the last 12 years sent one message like this, nor have I ever approached friends or family asking them to buy something from me (I just force them to like my posts LMAO!).

Instead I want you to do this:

-Build sincere connections and start genuine conversations

-Focus on being of service versus selling anything

-Chat with people online just as you would in real life, if you like their dress > say so, if their dog is adorable > say so, if their post moved you > say so.

Listen to this episode to learn how to convert these strangers into paying clients, without being a creep.

If you have been feeling restless, emotionally raw, impatient with your old patterns, or like your current life suddenly feels too small, you are not imagining it.

As we close out the Year of the Snake and prepare to enter the Year of the Fire Horse on February 17, 2026, we are moving through a rare 60-year transition cycle associated with identity shifts, shedding outdated patterns, and stepping into a faster, bolder chapter of life.

This episode explores the final shedding required before a major quantum jump, why this phase can feel emotionally intense, and how to stop delaying the version of you that is ready to move forward.

Instead of surface-level motivation or spiritual bypassing, this conversation focuses on honest self-reflection, releasing emotional attachments, confronting resistance, and taking decisive action so you can move into your next level with clarity and momentum.

This episode of the 2026 Glow Up Protocol is all about boundaries.

Not the cold, harsh, push-people-away kind.
But the kind that protect your energy, your peace, and your future.

Most high achievers think burnout comes from working too hard. The truth is much simpler: burnout comes from weak boundaries.

If you’ve ever felt exhausted, resentful, overwhelmed, or stretched too thin, it’s not because you care too much or work too much. It’s because you’ve been saying yes to things that should have been a no.

In this episode, you’ll learn how to set healthy boundaries without guilt, fear, or anxiety — and how to finally stop overgiving to the point of losing yourself.
