I just got back from the 4th Annual Content Entrepreneur Expo (CEX) and my notebook is full. In this episode, I share the biggest lessons that every creator needs to hear: Why replies matter more than followers or likes How to craft a clear, powerful premise that makes your audience’s eyes light up The surprising ways your community can create content with you Why breaking patterns and pushing boundaries keeps you unforgettable The trap of playing small—and how to step fully into your power Why slowing down may be the smartest move in an AI-driven world How trust platforms are beating search engines at their own game These insights hit me hard, and I think they’ll do the same for you. Listen in, take notes, and let’s rethink how we build as creators. -------- For more inspiration and a step-by-step guide to building freedom on your own terms, grab Joe’s new book Burn the Playbook (plus a 21-day challenge) at https://www.joepulizzi.com/books/burn-the-playbook/.
