207. The Truth About Content Planning and Building Community in the Age of AI with Carly Smith

You’re doing all the “right” things – keeping up with the trends, showing up online, even asking AI to help you out…

But your content feels meh, your community’s gone quiet, and deep down, you’re wondering if any of it is actually working.

If you’re feeling that – today’s episode of the How I Do Content Podcast is going to hit in the best kind of way.

Because today I’m joined by digital marketing strategist Carly Smith – the no-BS content queen behind Socially Graceful who helps business owners ditch the chaos and finally get their content (and their strategy) together.

With 15+ years in the digital space (yes, back to MySpace and blogging days), Carly’s worked with everyone from solo biz owners to national brands. She knows how to turn big goals into content plans that actually work – and feel good to execute.

In today’s episode, we talk about what really makes content connect – and why messaging matters more than any plan, platform or AI tool ever will.

Carly also shares her experience inside Micro Messaging – and how it helped her refine her messaging, reconnect to her point of difference, and back herself even more as a marketer.

So if your content right now feels overwhelming or like it's just not landing – this conversation will show you how to clean it up, simplify it, and finally make it work for you.

Let’s dive in.
