I’d genuinely love your thoughts on this… I’ve connected with a lot of new people on LinkedIn lately, and I’ll be honest, so many of the profile photos look like they’re at least 10 years out of date. The grey hairs are now there, the wrinkles have joined the party… but the photos haven’t changed. And with all the noise online about people 40+ being replaced by AI or younger talent, it got me thinking 👇 Should we be trying to “cover up” and look younger, hair dye, filters, old photos, just to stay competitive? Or… Should we be embracing our age and owning the wisdom, experience, and stability that only time can give us? I’m genuinely curious how you see it. Does showing your real age help or hurt your business presence? And if you’re 40+, have you felt the pressure to appear younger?

Let’s do something a little different today… One of the best parts of networking isn’t the pitches, the projects, or even the opportunities — it’s getting to know the person behind the profile. The real magic happens when we find common ground, shared passions, and those little things that make us human. So today’s question is simple: 🎨 What’s your hobby? What’s that thing you do just for you — the thing that lights you up, helps you switch off, or brings out your creative side? I’ll go first 👇

I get it — it’s part of marketing, building a database, staying in touch. But honestly, I’m done with email. I hate being bombarded. I feel like I spend more time unsubscribing than receiving value...I actually can't remember the last time I received value from an email .. Business owners, what’s your take? Does email actually work for you, am I missing the point or are you with me?

I was just listening to one of @Vasi Smith videos in her community where she talks about the importance of knowing your why. I've always been a great believer in having a strong WHY in your business. On the good days, business feels exciting and full of possibilities. But on the tough days, it’s your why that keeps you going. So I’m curious — what’s your why in business? What’s that reason, vision, or feeling that pulls you forward when things get hard? I’d love to hear what keeps you motivated. 💬
