If you’ve ever felt like your content is scattered, inconsistent, or just not connecting the way you want it to, this episode will help you see things differently.
In episode 185 of The Powerful Content Podcast, Mel Daniels invites you to shift your content mindset away from the old-school, transactional “sales funnel” and instead embrace a more human-first approach. One that feels good and actually works.
She explores the client journey: a simple but powerful pathway that helps you guide your audience from first discovering you to becoming loyal clients and advocates. When you understand what your ideal client is thinking, feeling, and doing at each stage (Connect, Subscribe, Nurture, Convert, and Onboard), you can create content that truly resonates.
Inside this episode, Mel helps you:
- Reimagine how your content builds trust and connection
- Map out your client journey so your content has purpose and flow
- Reflect on where your content may not be serving your people the way you want it to
- And feel inspired to show up with content that feels more meaningful, not just more “strategic”
You’ll walk away with clarity, direction, and a new sense of calm knowing that your content can be simple, effective, and aligned with you.
