“Hooks feel too salesy”
“Hooks never work for my niche”
“I just want to post my pretty photos!”

Then this episode is for you! In this episode I talk about:

Why hooks feel uncomfortable (and how to fix that)
How to write hooks that actually stop the scroll and connect with your audience
Why the real issue with hooks is unclear messaging — not your niche, the algorithm, or your creativity
How to reframe hooks to sound like you're texting a friend (and why that works so well!)
Real examples of weak vs. strong hooks (like turning "lower cortisol" into something your audience actually understands)
How to position yourself as the expert without sounding clinical, boring, or complicated

If creating content still feels hard, check out my Planting The Seeds prompts – weekly email prompts to help you post consistently and effortlessly.

Welcome to The Social Cottage with me, Gemma, where I give you the no-fluff advice and tips to help you grow your Instagram and sell more of your offers daily.

We'll be talking creating content more easily and in less time, building real authority as an expert in your space and getting your offers in front of the right people online so that you can live more of your life offline.

The jargon around content pillars, niche pressure, and Instagram strategy
My own perspective: that niching is simply knowing the outcome you provide to your audience
Real examples, like how my friend Sarah the "website girl" makes content easier by anchoring to a clear outcome
Why vague niches like “motherhood” often lead to overthinking — and how to avoid that trap
How to look at your Instagram objectively and answer: “What’s the result someone gets from following me?”
