Is Instagram killing creativity? Yes. Yes, it is. As much as I hate blaming it, we’re all merely victims to the Algorithm Gods. And while you could certainly try your best to chase after the algorithm, I wouldn’t recommend it because that shit is always changing. So what do we do? Is it hopeless out there for creators? Y’all know I don’t subscribe to that bleak way of thinking.

Let’s chat.

Welcome to Maestro on the Mic, a podcast that helps online business owners find their passion, generate more profit, and build a life that they love. I'm your host, Dr. Shanté Cofield, aka The Movement Maestro, and I’m stoked to have you here. I hope this podcast inspires you to make moves and do the thing. Action is the answer.

• The algorithm’s fault
• Base-level shit is the only thing that gets traction
• Create what inspires you
• Follow outside your niche
• Disconnect from the metrics
• Play without pandering
• Why you shouldn’t chase the algorithm
