Ep 3: Instagram and TikTok Are Cousins, Not Twins

INSTAGRAM AND TIKTOK ARE COUSINS, NOT TWINS Posting the exact same video on Instagram and TikTok sounds efficient. But what happens when the content that performs beautifully on one platform completely flops on the other? In this episode, Renée shares the realization that changed the way she approaches her content: Instagram and TikTok are cousins, not twins. They may share the same creator, message, and business, but each platform has its own personality, culture, and expectations. Instagram tends to reward more polished, intentional, business-forward content, while TikTok favors looser storytelling, opinions, personality, and content that feels a little more spontaneous. Renée also shares why her viral Instagram Reel barely moved on TikTok, why an old video about Italian chickens is still finding viewers, and how wedding professionals can use TikTok and WedTok to understand the conversations their clients are already having. In this episode: * * Why copying and pasting content between platforms often doesn’t work * * The key differences between Instagram and TikTok content * * How to adapt one idea without creating two entirely separate strategies * * Why TikTok rewards personality, opinions, and less-polished content * * How trending conversations can create opportunities for thought leadership * * Why wedding professionals should be paying attention to WedTok * * Simple ways to re-edit Instagram content for TikTok * * How to let each platform show a different side of your personality * * Why an extra 10 or 15 minutes of editing may give your content a much better chance of being seen The question to consider this week: Where are you forcing your content to be twins when it would work better as cousins?

Ep 2: Say Yes Before You’re Ready (How I Accidentally Started My Speaking Career)

What happens when someone asks, “What about you?” and you say yes before you have any idea what you’re doing? In this episode, Renée shares the story of the speaking opportunity that changed the direction of her career. What began as a volunteer leadership role, a borrowed idea, some hastily made slides, and a whole lot of nerve eventually put her in front of thousands of people and opened the door to a career she had not yet imagined for herself. It’s a story about meeting the moment, taking action before you feel ready, and recognizing that the opportunity you keep waiting for may require you to pitch yourself first. Renée also challenges you to identify one thing you want to be part of and finally throw your hat in the ring. Because you may not feel ready. You can still show up anyway.

Episode 1: The Visibility Problem

In the very first episode of *Show Up Anyway*, Renée Dalo introduces the visibility problem: the gap between how qualified you are and how visible you allow yourself to be. If showing up online feels harder than it “should,” this episode will help you understand why. Renée talks about perfectionism, overthinking, nervous system resistance, fear of being judged, and why visibility is not just a marketing problem. She also shares what happened when one of her reels reached 2.7 million views, why going viral did not magically change everything overnight, and how it did expand her capacity to be seen. This episode is your permission slip to stop waiting until you feel ready and start building small visibility reps instead.
