| This Might Be the Most Honest Take on AI You’ll Hear | 09 Jul 2025 | 00:25:01 | |
We did something a little meta: we used AI to help write this description… for a podcast critiquing AI. In this episode, Chris and Christy explore the double-edged sword of artificial intelligence in content creation - where it helps, where it harms, and when to just trust your gut. From AI avatars to the environmental cost of free ideas, and why human connection is the one thing bots can’t fake — it’s a raw, refreshing take for creators who want to stay real in a world getting way too robotic. 💡 If you’re a coach, consultant, or creator wondering whether AI is a shortcut or a sellout; this is your episode.

| Stop the Scroll: The Key to Creative Success | 10 Sep 2025 | 00:09:55 | |
Join my community so we can mentor you: https://brandvideo.pro You can always email me at: chris@brandvideo.pro The Overload of Online Advice: When you're scrolling through social media, you hear things that pull you in different directions and pull you apart. My advice is to choose the people who resonate with you the most and then really run for it. If you try to take advice from multiple people, you're going to be running in different directions, and you'll get nowhere. The Power of a Singular Vision: I've seen this firsthand when I've created video adverts for different companies. The best adverts I've made for clients come from a place where we've taken all of their views on board at the start, and then I've been given free reign to take control of the creative process. I've also been in rooms where we've done rebranding for companies. I've known a company go away and collect feedback from 30 people, and their vision slowly turned more "beige" as a result. The final product was, frankly, a bit "crap". It's like the Homer Simpson car he designed years ago—it was a million thoughts rolled into one, and it just didn't work. You've got to have one person's creative vision. That's why Steve Jobs was so good. He may have been an absolute nightmare to work with, but his vision was so strong and singular that it just worked. Create for Yourself, Not the Algorithm: I truly believe that creating will be consuming every time you do it. I made a short video this week because I believe you should create for yourself rather than the algorithm. The more you create, the better you're going to get. There's a guy in my community who helps barbers, and he committed to a 30-day series. His content is already so much better just because he's been creating and creating. If you just create brilliant content for a long time, your audience is going to build no matter what. The algorithm will eventually pick up on you, and the real people behind it can look at all your content and find the value in it. How to Choose Your Mentors: I think it's so important to choose your mentors with care. You can add to them or change them, but you have to think: who really resonates with me? For me, I really like Chris Do from The Future for Creative Entrepreneurship. I've also looked towards Xinjiang for negotiating, Chris Voss for Manychat automations, and Gannon Meyer for community building. I want you to try and filter your social media feed this week. If you're getting alternative advice that's pulling you in two directions, that's not a good thing. You probably can't do both of those pieces of advice in one go, so choose a path and really go for it. It's like driving a car: if you turn the wheel and you're not moving, it's not going to change your course. If you're in motion, you're going to get to a destination. I'm a better creator now because I know what to ignore, and it's also helping my mental health. Let me know who you choose as your mentors! I'll be interested to find out if they're the same as mine. | |||
| Record a Podcast No One Listens To | 06 Oct 2025 | 00:07:25 | |
Sounds ridiculous, right? But every coach or consultant should do exactly that. In this episode, I share how recording podcasts — even with zero listeners — can help you find your real voice, sharpen your thinking, and even train AI to write in your exact tone. I’ll tell you the story of how Christy and I were stuck writing a new landing page until I realised the best copy we’d ever written was already sitting in my podcast transcripts. 🎧 Give this a listen — and then go record something that no one else ever hears. You’ll be amazed at what it unlocks. 👉 Explore The Studio, where we help coaches and consultants create content that connects: | |||

| Your Self-Worth Isn’t in Your Follower Count | 12 Oct 2025 | 00:10:42 | |
When I first started creating content, even earning a few pounds online felt magical. But... I massively underpriced myself. In this episode, I talk about how my self-worth got tangled up with follower numbers, and how long it took to finally feel confident charging what my work is worth. After more than 750 videos and passing 100,000 followers, I’ve realised that real value doesn’t come from viral hits - it comes from showing up to help people over and over again. I’ll also break down: 🎯 Why you shouldn’t price low out of fear 🎯 The difference between performative marketing and genuine branding 🎯 How posting daily discovery content built the foundation for everything we’ve done Whether you’re just starting out or you’re stuck undervaluing your expertise — this episode is for you. 🎥 Join me inside The Studio, our community of creators, coaches, and consultants building brands that last. | |||
| Stop Creating for Algorithms - Start Creating for People | 19 Nov 2025 | 00:07:45 | |
This week I’m diving into a trap so many creators still fall into: building content for the algorithm instead of the audience. After seeing yet another creator start a new Instagram account because they believed they were “shadowbanned,” I break down why that mindset keeps people stuck — and why curating your grid or obsessing over trends won’t work in 2025. I share the simple shift that changed everything for me: 👉 Create from your client’s perspective, not your own. When you focus on helping them, your brand, your content, and your business grow naturally. I also talk about a new piece of tech I’m excited about — the DJI Neo 2 — and why tools like this can help your videos stand out with ease. Finally… The Studio is officially open! From 19th–23rd November (unless we hit capacity), we’re welcoming 50 new coaches, consultants, and experts who want to create better video, build a personal brand, and grow a business that gives them more freedom. Message me on socials @thechrisgoor if you have any questions. Short one today, but an important one: Create content for people, not platforms. See you next week. | |||
