  • #106- I'm seeing this done way too often.
    Jul 31 2025

    Hey Friends!

    In this solo episode, I’m unpacking the three biggest mistakes Im seeing as I do a lot of site audits these days.

    After doing dozens of homepage breakdowns lately, I started noticing a pattern: and these aren’t just design tweaks, they’re trust killers. We’ll talk through UX blind spots, the problem with building for yourself instead of your buyer, and something I call “peacocking” that’s holding a lot of people back.

    Listen to this episode if you’ve ever wondered why your website isn’t landing the way it should.
