    The Algorithm Doesn’t Hate You - Your Content Is Just Losing People | The Social Circle | Ep 36
    Feb 2 2026
    Everybody loves to say “the algorithm hates me.” We’re here to lovingly call that out.In this episode of The Social Circle, we break down what the algorithm actually does (spoiler: it has zero emotions) and what platforms really reward in 2026: retention, watch time, saves, shares, reposts, and comment conversations.If your views drop, your content isn’t “shadow banned.” Most of the time, one of these things happened:your message was confusingyour hook didn’t earn the next secondthe editing/lighting/audio distracted peopleyou buried the point under fluffWe’ll talk through why trends and hashtags won’t save boring content, how to use analytics to see where people drop off, and why “likes” are the most overrated metric on the internet. If you want your content pushed farther, stop chasing the algorithm and start chasing retention.Episode Tools & Resources:Repurpose.io: https://repurpose.io?fpr=311209&fp_sid=tsc Helps creators stay consistent by automating distribution; think “post once, publish everywhere.

    Why Your Content Feels Invisible (Even When It’s Good); Awareness vs Trust vs Conversion | The Social Circle | Ep 35
    Jan 26 2026
    Ever feel like you put real effort into a post… and it still goes nowhere?In this episode of The Social Circle, we break down why “good content” can still feel invisible — and the real reason most creators get stuck: they’re asking one post to do three jobs.We’re talking:The 3 types of content you need: Awareness, Trust, and ConversionWhy views don’t equal growth (and what to watch instead)What stage most creators are actually in (and why that’s normal)How to stop burning out from unrealistic expectationsCircle Hack: Do a quick 6-second retention test before you post. Watch your video on mute and ask: Would I stop scrolling in the first 6 seconds? If not, rewrite the hook and simplify the message.If you want us to look at your account, drop “AUDIT” in the comments.Episode Tools & Resources:Repurpose.io: https://repurpose.io?fpr=311209&fp_sid=tsc Helps creators stay consistent by automating distribution; think “post once, publish everywhere.

  • Marketing Isn’t What You Think It Is (And That’s Why You’re Stuck) | The Social Circle | Ep 33

    Marketing Isn’t What You Think It Is (And That’s Why You’re Stuck) | The Social Circle | Ep 33
    Jan 12 2026

    You’re posting consistently, trying the trends, showing up… and still feeling stuck.


    In this episode, we break down why marketing isn’t what you think it is and why that misunderstanding is exactly what’s causing so much frustration for creators.


    We talk about:

    • The real difference between content, branding, and marketing

    • Why posting every day ≠ marketing

    • Why “just be consistent” isn’t enough (and never was)

    • How to stop creating randomly and start posting with intention

    • Why you’re not bad at content—you’re just missing the strategy layer

    If you’ve ever thought:“Why isn’t this working?”“Why am I doing all this and seeing nothing back?”“Am I the problem?”


    This episode will help you zoom out, reframe the problem, and start thinking like a marketer, not just a poster.


    Stop asking “What do I post today?”Start asking “What problem am I solving today?”


    We also share how to break your content down into:

    • A clear problem

    • Your perspective

    • A practical takeaway

    • A simple call to action

    Plus, we talk about how to turn your real life, experience, and personality into marketing that actually connects... and converts.

    Why Content Feels Harder in 2026 (Micro Dramas, Storytelling & the New Rules) | The Social Circle | Ep 32
    Jan 6 2026

    Welcome back to The Social Circle and happy 2026!

    In this episode, Candace and Jennifer break down what’s actually changing in content this year and what creators need to stop doing if they want to grow.

    We’re talking:

    Why micro dramas are running social media

    What “YOU are the niche” really means (and why it matters more than ever)

    How storytelling, POV, and emotional hooks drive retentionWhy content is shifting from “helpful” to felt

    How to audit old posts and turn them into stronger, higher-performing content

    Why testing, trimming, and rewriting hooks beats posting more

    If content feels harder right now, it’s not you...the bar has moved.

    This episode is for creators who want to build trust, connection, and growth without sounding like everyone else on the internet.
