Manage episode 477228746 series 3505224
Have you ever said, “I’m not a writer… I don’t know what to say”? You’re not alone.
Today I’m excited to welcome Afia Abrar, someone who’s not just part of my team, but truly part of my mission. She’s a copywriter and messaging strategist who helps coaches and creatives turn their ideas and voice notes into content that sounds like you—and sells with heart.
When we first met inside the Legacy Building Mamas community, I’d been putting off email marketing for seven months. It felt scary and overwhelming—until Afia gently offered her help. Since then, we’ve hit 30–50% open rates and created content my audience truly connects with. She is the secret weapon behind many of the heartfelt, high-converting emails inside the Legacy Building Mamas brand.
In this episode, we’re chatting about:
- messaging that converts
- content that feels like you
- and building a business that honours your life and your legacy.
If email marketing has felt like a block—this is the episode you need.
