I’m excited to welcome somatic therapist Ariell Murcko to the podcast today to talk about her INCREDIBLE growth on Instagram. After joining the Reels Membership in July 2023, she grew from 1k followers to 50k followers in only 6 months!!

But what really stands out is all the BTS work she put in to make it happen. Ariell’s story is evidence that showing up consistently, sharing your truth, and building community WORKS. It’s such a fun conversation, and will totally inspire you to take action on your own goals!!

In this episode, we cover:

• Why Ariell started her Instagram during grad school + how it’s evolved since
• The clients she supports as a therapist + how her niche naturally shifted over time
• Ariell’s journey from 1k to 50k followers in under a year
• What real consistency looked like during her biggest growth season + why it became a non-negotiable
• Prepping her content each day
• How her IG presence shifted during maternity leave (but didn’t crumble)
• Why community & connection have been key drivers for her on Instagram
• Ariell’s future goals with IG
• Her 2 private live coaching groups + how she shifts her content during launches
• The decision to keep her kids’ faces offline while still showing up as a mom
• Why you need to keep showing up & sharing those spicy, taboo topics
