  • Done with Meta: Why I Left and Why You Might Want to Follow
    Mar 19 2025

    Fed up with algorithm changes, dwindling organic reach, and constant pay-to-play demands? You're not alone. This raw, unfiltered exploration pulls back the curtain on why Meta's ecosystem has become increasingly toxic for indie authors trying to build sustainable careers.

    What began as creative playgrounds have transformed into profit-driven machines where creators work harder for less visibility every day. We've become digital sharecroppers, toiling on land we don't own, hoping for a few engagement crumbs thrown our way. But there's another path forward. When I finally said goodbye to Meta's platforms, something unexpected happened—I found freedom, genuine connection, and more effective marketing channels that I actually controlled.

    This episode unpacks five powerful alternatives to Meta dependency: building your sovereign email list, creating communities on platforms like Substack and Patreon, embracing old-school discoverability through blogging and SEO, making direct connections with readers and influencers, and taking back your entrepreneurial power through direct sales. The most successful authors aren't waiting for permission from algorithms—they're creating their own paths to readers.

    Your desires for your author career are divine guidance showing you the way forward. Are you ready to trust yourself, break free from platform dependency, and create success on your own terms? Listen now and start your author revolution today.

    Indie publishing wasn’t built for neurodivergent minds—so let’s change that. Inside Author Revolution on Substack, I share exclusive insights on writing, publishing, and manifestation for ND authors. Plus, explore my neurospicy romcoms & urban fantasy worlds.

    What if everything you’ve been told about author success is completely wrong? 🤯

    For years, indie authors have been fed the same recycled advice: Hustle harder. Beat the algorithm. Write more, sell more, struggle more. But what if this mindset is actually keeping you broke, exhausted, and farther from the success you truly want?

    In this special BONUS episode, we’re shattering the biggest myths about publishing success—and revealing a radically different approach to making money, growing your readership, and creating the author career you want. You’ll discover why alignment matters more than effort, how to attract success instead of chasing it, and the surprising truth about what’s really blocking your abundance.

    If you’re ready to ditch the struggle and step into a whole new paradigm of author success, this episode is your wake-up call. Listen now!
