If your content has stopped landing, leads feel slower, or business just feels heavier than it used to, you're not alone. In this episode, Anna unpacks the major solopreneur trends of 2025 - and what they mean for how you work, sell, and show up as you prepare for 2026.
Key Takeaways
-
Visibility is changing: Even strong, thoughtful content underperformed on LinkedIn this year—and it's not about your quality, but the context.
-
AI raised the bar: With content creation easier than ever, your differentiation now comes from clarity of message and point of view.
-
Sales cycles slowed: Corporate budgets shrank, hesitations increased, and "maybe next quarter" became the norm.
-
Trust takes more time: Warm leads, referrals, and real relationships outperform cold funnels and algorithm-chasing.
-
Solopreneurs want sustainability: Many don't need bigger businesses—just clearer, simpler, more spacious ones.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
