Learn how to dodge scams to protect your money, then understand how to compare robo vs. traditional investment risks. What should you do if your credit card is compromised in a scam? Are robo-advisors riskier than traditional brokerage accounts? Hosts Sean Pyles and Elizabeth Ayoola discuss how to spot and respond to identity theft and dig into how robo-advisors stack up to traditional investing platforms to help you protect your financial life. They kick off Smart Money’s new Scam Stories series by welcoming guest Scramble Hughes, a circus performer and scam victim, who shares a real-life experience with credit card fraud. They discuss tips and tricks on recognizing red flags like mass spam messages, acting fast by calling the number on your card (not clicking links), and filing credit freezes with all three credit bureaus. Then, investing Nerd Bella Avila joins Sean and Elizabeth to discuss how robo-advisors compare to traditional brokerage accounts. They discuss risk levels in automated portfolios, SIPC insurance protections, and key factors to consider when choosing a platform like account minimums, platform stability, and user experience.

84: Why Building an Audience is Not the Same as Building a Content Business 12:48

för 6 dagar sedan12:48

12:48

Text me your content win! Hey creators—let’s get real for a second. Just because you’ve built a big audience doesn’t mean you’ve built a business. I know, that’s a little spicy to say out loud, but it’s the truth. And in this episode, I’m breaking down exactly why focusing only on audience growth will leave you burned out, broke, and wondering why those brand deals never seem to come your way. As a travel creator and content strategist, I see this all the time: talented content creators chasing follower counts instead of setting up systems that actually generate revenue. Having 100K followers doesn’t matter if you don’t know what you’re selling, who you’re selling it to, or how your business makes money when you’re not glued to Instagram or TikTok. Inside this episode, we’ll cover: The big lie about “just grow your audience and the money will follow.” The real difference between an audience and a content business. Why “going viral” doesn’t guarantee income (and what does). The business systems you must have in place if you want to stop chasing followers and start creating freedom. f you’re tired of feeding the content machine without seeing results, this is your reminder to shift your focus from vanity metrics to sustainable business growth. ✨ Want to stop acting like “just” a content creator and start building a real business? Send me a DM on Instagram @travelcontentwriting to learn more about the community I’m creating for travel creators who are serious about turning their content into income. Until next time—don’t just create content. Create a business.

83: Dear Travel Creators, Your Business Needs You to Log Off 15:42

för 13 dagar sedan15:42

15:42

Text me your content win! Today I am recording this fresh off the trail after 10+ days offline in Yellowstone, Wyoming, and Montana. No WiFi. No emails. No “outfit of the day” reels. Just me, s’mores, and mountains that look straight out of a fairytale. And honestly? Coming back to the laptop has been… jarring. If you’ve ever been a digital nomad , a travel influencer , or a content creator who tries to balance “living the adventure” with “posting the adventure,” you know that feeling. In this episode, I’m sharing why stepping away from your phone and actually touching some grass is the best thing you can do for your travel creator business and your mental health. We’re talking: Why your best ideas don’t happen in front of your laptop. How your audience can feel your burnout—and why you need to reset. Practical tips to ease back into work after being offline. Why low engagement isn’t the enemy—boring content is. How I’m building boring-but-beautiful systems so creators like you can run your business while you’re out exploring the world. If you’re a travel creator or digital nomad who wants to build a sustainable business (so you can go climb that mountain or turn your phone off for a week without panicking about engagement), come hang out with me on Instagram @TravelContentWriting DM me the word SYSTEMS and I’ll get you on the list for early access to my systems-based community for travel influencers and creators. Because your business doesn’t need you to hustle harder. It needs you to have a life. 🌎💻✨ Now—go touch some freaking grass.

In This Episode, You'll Hear: Why viral content strategies often miss the mark The real reason you're not seeing growth (hint: it’s not the algorithm) The truth about “engagement hacks” and why they’re burning creators out What you should focus on instead: audience clarity, service-based content, and sustainable systems A sneak peek into the systems and automations I’m building for travel creators Why replacing the word “algorithm” with “people” will transform your content strategy Key points: travel creator, content creator, how to go viral, tiktok growth trends, build a travel content business, tiktok algorithm myth Resources Mentioned: The episode about why I think viral content is BS (feat.

13:40

Text me your content win! Have you ever dreamed of building a content business that lets you actually enjoy your travels—without scrambling to post, pitch, or pretend you’re not freaking out about engagement stats? Today I’m pulling back the curtain on something I’ve been building quietly behind the scenes—a travel content creator community that isn’t about chasing trends, but about building smart, sustainable systems that let your content business run even when you’re off the grid in Santorini or sipping mezcal in Tulum. ✨ In This Episode, I Spill: The real reason so many successful content creators are secretly burning out Why this community is going to be deliciously boring —and why that’s a good thing for your business What kind of systems are saving me 6+ hours a week (hint: Airtable + Zapier + Gmail = 🤯) Why this isn’t another course you’ll never finish—or a noisy mastermind you’ll ghost in 3 weeks How YOU can be a founding member and even land a spot on the podcast 💁‍♀️ If you’re a travel creator or content creator who's tired of feeling like your business depends on your WiFi signal, this episode is for you. Whether you’re cashing brand deals or paddling along in your raft-level earnings (you’ll get the joke when you listen), we are building something powerful—and you're invited. Keypoints: travel creator, travel content community, content creator, sustainable content business, creator systems, off-grid content creation, build a creator business, UGC brand deals, passive income for travel creators Follow Me On: Sign up for my newsletter, the Content Compass to receive free tips and tricks to beat the content creation overwhelm and get back to traveling. https://travelcontentwriting.hbportal.co/public/650f599bb604bf00244c7381/1-Inquiry_form Website: https://www.travelcontentwriting.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/travelcontentwriting/…

In this episode, I’m sharing the real, messy, imperfect metaphor that turned my content strategy mindset on its head: The First Coat Rule. It’s all about just getting it done and making it better later—because let’s be honest, that draft sitting in your phone isn’t helping anyone. Here’s what we dive into: Why done is better than perfect when it comes to content creation How overthinking kills momentum (and how to get it back) A little pep talk for my fellow people-pleasers Why your content doesn’t need to be a masterpiece to be profitable The difference between real feedback and made-up problems Whether you're a seasoned travel content creator or just getting started as a digital content creator , this episode is your permission slip to take messy action and build momentum.

I brought on two of my favorite humans, Candace and Logan—van lifers, creators, and truly intentional travelers who’ve been doing this since before it was cool (yep, pre-#VanLife). We dive into what slow travel really means (hint: it’s not just staying longer), how they built their creative routines from the road, and how to avoid being “that” tourist when you post about tiny towns online. ✨ This episode is a love letter to living slower, consuming less, and being deeply rooted in how we show up as travelers. We’re covering: The actual rules of intentional travel—no, really Why overposting can hurt local communities (and what to do instead) How to balance creating content without burning out Our favorite hippie routines (brushing your teeth with clay, anyone?) A brutally honest take on travel and routine while living in a van The books and tools that shaped how Logan & Candace travel today 📚 Books + Resources Mentioned: Braiding Sweetgrass by Robin Wall Kimmerer Blue Highways by William Least Heat-Moon Living Resistance by Kaitlin B.

Text me your content win! Ever found yourself doing everything but the one thing you absolutely need to get done? Laundry folded, fridge organized, random Wikipedia pages explored—and your big project still untouched? You're not lazy—you're human. And in this episode, we’ll unpack why procrastination happens and how you can finally outsmart it. 🧠 What You'll Learn: The real psychological drivers behind procrastination (hint: it’s not just poor time management). How perfectionism and fear of failure feed the procrastination cycle. The concept of “emotional regulation” and why it matters more than willpower. Practical strategies to break the habit—and build momentum. 🔑 Key Takeaways: Procrastination is an emotional regulation problem, not a character flaw. Avoidance offers short-term relief but compounds stress in the long term. Awareness is the first step—recognize your triggers and emotional responses. Tools like the “10-minute rule,” setting low-friction goals, and self-compassion can radically change your behavior. 📌 Resources Mentioned: Tim Urban’s Inside the Mind of a Master Procrastinator (TED Talk) “The Now Habit” by Neil Fiore Mindfulness-based practices for self-awareness Follow Me On: Sign up for my newsletter, the Content Compass to receive free tips and tricks to beat the content creation overwhelm and get back to traveling. https://travelcontentwriting.hbportal.co/public/650f599bb604bf00244c7381/1-Inquiry_form Website: https://www.travelcontentwriting.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/travelcontentwriting/…
