What is up my rebel nerds? In this episode of Analog Girls, Digital World, we’re breaking down why your digital marketing strategy isn’t working; even when you hire a digital marketing consultant to help you.
Spoiler: it’s not your website, your funnel, or your offer. It’s the inconsistent behavior that sneaks in when fear, comparison, and outside opinions take the wheel.
I’m sharing real-talk insights from my 12+ years in online business - from directing live TV to building multiple wellness brands, running retreats in Costa Rica, and now helping Gen-X entrepreneurs, healers, artists, and small businesses build brands that actually convert.
We’ll unpack:
If you’ve ever wondered why your marketing feels stuck or why hiring help didn’t magically solve everything - this episode is your clarity moment.

In this episode of Analog Girls in the Digital World, I sit down with Maggie Patterson - business truth-teller, cult dynamics decoder, and champion for small-but-mighty entrepreneurs.
Together, we pull back the curtain on the manipulative marketing tactics that have infected the online coaching and MLM world.
From “mindset hacks” that silence your intuition to emotional manipulation disguised as empowerment, we unpack how easily these spaces can start to feel… well, culty. Maggie breaks down the BITE model - that’s Behavior, Information, Thought, and Emotional control -and shows us exactly how it plays out in the digital business arena.
If you’ve ever questioned the shiny promises of six-figure launches and “just believe harder” messaging, this one’s your permission slip to trust your gut, sharpen your discernment, and stop letting toxic marketing mess with your mind (or your money).

What is UP my rebel nerds?!
Welcome to the VERY FIRST episode of Analog Girls, Digital World - the show for my fellow Gen X and elder millennial women who grew up making mixtapes off the radio… and are now out here building digital empires like the badass, slightly-chaotic, heart-forward legends we are.
In this premiere episode, I’m kicking open the digital doors and inviting you into a new era of online business - one built on integrity, transparency, and ACTUAL human connection… not bro-marketing manipulation.
Here’s what I’m diving into:
💥 Why it was time for me to leave the wellness world after watching it slip into culty vibes, guru theatrics, and weaponized “mindset”
💥 How I rediscovered my true superpower: being the tech friend and why being an analog girl actually positions me perfectly to guide women through the digital world
💥 Integrity vs. Influence: the difference, why it matters, and why I’m choosing integrity every damn time
💥 The behind-the-scenes skills I actually bring to the table: decades of storytelling, design, tech, funnels, branding, web development, and creative chaos wrangling
💥 What bro-marketing really looks like (and why I’m officially DONE with it)

LIMITED SERIES Podcast: Burn it Down (where I get some things off my chest and transition fully into digital marketing here on the pod)
Personal development is powerful, but it won’t build you a business.
In this episode, I break down the messy overlap between personal growth and personal branding, how MLMs and shady “coaches” hijack self-help for profit, and why strategy matters just as much as mindset.
You’ll learn why your old patterns surface the minute you step into entrepreneurship, how community makes the journey sustainable, and what it really takes to build a brand that lasts.

LIMITED SERIES Podcast: Burn it Down (where I get some things off my chest and transition fully into digital marketing here on the pod)
Let me be very clear - this one isn’t about attacking men.
It’s about naming the systems they defend, protect, and benefit from… even when those systems harm women.
In this episode, I break down the uncomfortable truth about male-led spiritual circles, coaching empires, and “conscious” communities that are built less on healing and more on hierarchy, profit, and power.
It’s a pattern.A business model.A well-oiled machine designed to protect the man at the top.
And yes… this episode is a wake-up call for any man who feels the need to defend these ecosystems instead of questioning why they’re built the way they are in the first place.
If you’ve ever wondered why women stay silent, why speaking up is so terrifying, or why calling out male “leaders” feels like breaking a sacred rule - this episode is your map.

In a world where vulnerability is treated like currency, how do you know when you’re being authentic - and when you’re just performing for your brand?
In this episode, I unpack the blurry line between personal branding and personal life, the difference between sharing from scars versus wounds, and how to decide what’s yours to share online.
From my early blogging days to my current pivot with Rebel Soul Media, I share the boundaries, questions, and lessons that keep me aligned in business, life, and visibility.
Rebel Soul Media didn’t come out of nowhere - it’s the culmination of two decades of grit, reinvention, and unapologetic creativity.
In this episode, I share my journey from TV director to retreat chef to Breathwork facilitator to digital brand strategist, and why this evolution makes so much sense when you look at the path I’ve been on.
If you’ve ever wondered how to blend soul, strategy, and actual skill into your business, this is the behind-the-scenes story of why Rebel Soul Media exists.

Politics and spirituality aren’t separate - they never were. In this episode, I share my own journey from head-in-the-sand avoidance to seeing politics as a mirror of character and values.
From the vaccine moment that exposed cracks in the spiritual community, to the dangerous overlap of religion, politics, and cult dynamics, I unpack why neutrality is no longer an option.
If your spirituality doesn’t translate into equality for all humans, it’s not spirituality; it’s performance.

Endings don’t always need an explanation. In this episode, I talk about the radical power of sovereignty - the ability to close doors without apology.
From relationships to businesses to lifelong chapters, sometimes “I’m done” is a complete sentence. I share the lessons I’ve learned from closing big doors in my own life, including why I’m bringing my Breath Alchemy Circle to a close, and what it means to trust alignment over luck.

The line between spirituality and religion isn’t as clean as we like to believe.
From hierarchy and ritual to toxic leaders and spiritual bypassing, many “wellness” spaces mirror the very systems they claim to break free from.
In this episode, I unpack the parallels, call out the manipulation, and share why true spirituality is found in the quiet, everyday moments; not in costly certifications, cult-like communities, or curated Instagram feeds.

The wellness world is overflowing with hacks, rituals, and spiritual bypassing that rarely deliver what they promise.
In this episode, I share why I’ve burned down most of my spiritual practices; but continue to stand by Breathwork as the one tool that’s accessible, real, and proven to transform both body and mind.

Welcome tomy limited series pod Burn It Down ; and damn, it feels good to be back. After a year off, I’m relaunching this podcast with a fire in my belly and a whole new lens on life.
In this premiere episode, I’m sharing the truth about what’s gone down since I last hit record: losing our baby, rebuilding my identity back in small-town Ontario, and burning down the boxes I’ve been living in.
I talk about what it’s been like to step away from the glossy “spiritual” paradise life, to finally call out the bypassing and BS in the coaching/wellness world, and to lean back into the skills I’ve always had—media, storytelling, branding, design.
This episode is part personal update, part manifesto, and part invitation. If you’ve ever outgrown your old identity, questioned the spiritual hamster wheel, or wondered what it means to live beyond the performance of healing… you’re in the right place.
Burn It Down isn’t about chaos—it’s about rebirth. Burning down the false, the toxic, and the misaligned so we can rise from the ashes more true than before.
I am saying adios this week. After over 3 years at this podcast thing, I am officially dropping the mic (at least for now). Listen in to find out why and how you can continue to hear from me as we move forward.
Twice a month I invite you into my virtual breathwork studio where we will focus on a theme and breathe into bliss.
This week enjoy a short meditation on the breath; an opportunity to drop into your body and the present moment by simply paying attention to this constant and necessary act, which holds so much magic!
Big share this week...what our family has been going through the last few months and what I've learned from it all.
