Infusing Your Culture into Your Brand and Launching a Digital Zine with Krista Linares

In this episode, Bjork is sitting down with Krista Linares, a dietitian who made the bold choice to transition back to a full-time job to reclaim her mental bandwidth (and yes, solve the health insurance nightmare). It's a refreshing look at why stability might actually be the secret ingredient to better creative work.

She didn't just change her job, though! She completely overhauled how she shows up online. With the nutrition space getting flooded by generic AI content, Krista realized standard blogging wasn't cutting it anymore. She opens up about her pivot to a "digital zine" — a mix of recipes, hot takes, and cultural deep dives — and why leaning into your specific, un-copyable voice is the only way to make it in today's digital landscape.

Three episode takeaways:

Trading the grind for stability: Why Krista decided to pivot from the stress of private practice (and navigating health insurance!) to a 9-to–5 role, and how that stability actually gave her more freedom to be creative.
Standing out in the era of AI: With the internet flooded by AI-generated info, Krista breaks down why leaning into your unique voice, cultural background, and personal opinions is the only way to really connect with an audience right now.
The return of the "zine" format: A look at Krista's cool new project—a digital zine—and why she's moving away from standard blogging to a format that blends recipes, articles, and hot takes to build a deeper community.
