• Why I Keep Going Back to WordPress + Kadence for Landing Pages

    If you’ve ever wondered why people still use WordPress when tools like Squarespace, Wix, or Carrd exist, this video explains it all.

    After years of testing no-code platforms, I discovered that nothing beats WordPress + Kadence for:

    ? Flexibility and design freedom
    ? Automation and integrations
    ? Full ownership of your content
    ? Ease of use (no coding needed)

    I’ll also walk you through real examples of landing pages I built using Kadence Blocks — and how you can do the same with zero custom code.

  • There are no trade secrets in small business

    The most valuable trade secret I have?

    There are no trade secrets.

    There’s no patent for how to build a small business.

    We all benefit when we share what works and what doesn’t.

    The more transparent we are, the better we all get — for ourselves, our clients, and our families.

    So instead of gatekeeping, I’m giving it all away. Lessons learned. Mistakes made. Systems built through trial and error.

    Let’s stop pretending there’s some secret formula and start showing up for each other.
