Let’s be real—Pinterest might still have a reputation for wedding inspo and midlife kitchen renos, but if that’s all you think it’s good for, you’re missing out on a seriously powerful marketing machine.
To help us dust off the glitter glue and turn Pinterest into a traffic-driving, lead-generating engine, I’m joined by Megan Williamson, founder of Pin Potential Inc. and Pinterest’s unofficial (but very official) queen bee.

Today, we’re diving into the truth about Pinterest as a long-game strategy, why it outperforms social for discoverability, and how you can start getting results with the content you already have. If you’re a course creator, podcaster, or community builder who’s tired of shouting into the Instagram void—this one’s for you.

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
