Volume 22

Humanistic Astrology with Jessica Lanyadoo. LinkedIn is cool now. Reframing guilt. An amazing AI resource. And stop telling women to stop apologizing.

Hi and welcome to Volume 22 of Content People.

Let’s get into it.

The Content People Episode
Renowned Humanistic Astrologer Jessica Lanyadoo joined us for the S2E13 episode of Content People. Jessica’s the author of Astrology for Real Relationships, host of the chart-topping pod Ghost of a Podcast, and former cohost of the TLC series Stargazing. Our convo covered her unconventional career path, what it was like to discover intuitive gifts in her 30s, and how she built an authentic, aligned, and impactful digital brand for her business.

Check it on Spotify, Apple, and Google.

If you’d like to support the show, please consider giving us a review, a 5-star rating, or telling a friend about it. 🌟

PS. Did you check out last week’s ep with Clara of ColorMeLoverly? It was a hit. I highly recommend her Substack.

Reading
This Bloomberg Article Sorry, But LinkedIn Is Cool Now: The professional network is benefiting from upheavals elsewhere in the social media landscape. Or check out this Axios summary of the piece if you don't have a Bloomberg subscription.

I knew it. It is cool now. (Or at least more popular than ever.)

In the article, Bloomberg reports that LinkedIn users shared 41% more content on the network this spring than they did in the same period in 2021. 

Hat tip to Cher Jones of Your Brand at Work who shared this article on her Instagram here.

Listening
🎧How To Lose Half of Your Guilt. 
This was an incredible ep of Glennon Doyle’s We Can Do Hard Things podcast.

Following
💡Heather Murray was a Content People guest earlier this season. Her newsletter AI for Non-Techies is (for me) a must-read. She breaks down cutting-edge AI tools and updates in a simple, clear, and thorough way. Heather’s also a great LinkedIn follow. 

Posting
Last week, I posted on LinkedIn about what is still my most popular substack post, Stop Telling Women to Stop Apologizing (written back in March). I was bowled over by the interesting, insightful comments. Thanks to everyone who chimed in.

Ok. That’s all she wrote.

Hope you have a great rest of the week.
