Are you expecting social media to make sales for your business? What if your problem isn't marketing, but what happens after someone shows interest? In this episode, Shelby gets real about the difference between marketing and sales and why understanding both is essential for business growth. Shelby explains that social media is primarily a tool for brand awareness. It helps people discover your business, understand what you offer, and see how you can solve their problems. However, turning that awareness into revenue requires a sales process that moves potential customers from engagement to action. Drawing from her experience with Shelby Clement Marketing and Connie’s Impressions, she shares practical examples of how to create strategic content, showcase customer experiences, identify upselling opportunities, and follow up with potential buyers before they move on to a competitor. In this episode, you'll discover: Why social media marketing and sales serve different purposes.How to turn engagement into qualified leads.Why quick responses can make a difference in converting buyers.How customer stories help potential clients see themselves working with you.Why upselling and understanding your products matter.How to build a sales funnel that supports your marketing efforts.Why business owners need a clear strategy for turning attention into revenue. Shelby also explains why marketing agencies shouldn't automatically be expected to close sales unless sales responsibilities, product knowledge, and conversion strategies are part of the agreed scope of work. Whether you're a business owner, entrepreneur, or marketer, this episode will help you better understand how marketing and sales can work together to support sustainable growth. The takeaway? Getting people to notice your business is only the beginning. You also need a clear process to capture their interest, follow up, and make it easy for them to buy.

Entrepreneurship isn't as glamorous as social media makes it look. In this episode, Shelby gets honest about what it really means to run and grow a business after buying her parents’ company, Connie’s. She talks about managing a team, leading employees older than her, setting clear standards, implementing SOPs, hiring before she felt completely ready, and learning how to create a stronger foundation for growth. More importantly, Shelby talks about the parts of entrepreneurship people don't always share — the stress, difficult decisions, employee challenges, customer expectations, and the responsibility that comes with being the person in charge. Because building a business isn't just about sales and freedom. It's about people, systems, leadership, accountability, and creating a standard your whole team can follow. If you're building a business or thinking about becoming an entrepreneur, tune in for a real and honest conversation about what happens behind the scenes.

The Shelby Clement Podcast is officially BACK and Shelby is starting this new chapter by getting completely honest about what life has looked like behind the scenes. After taking a break from the podcast, Shelby returns with a very different season of life to talk about: motherhood, running two businesses, buying her family’s 35-year-old business, growing a team, learning the numbers, building systems, and figuring out how to balance all of it without pretending she has everything figured out. Earlier this year, Shelby bought Connie’s Impressions, the business her parents started 35 years ago. What began as an idea to buy the business, grow it, and eventually sell it has quickly become something much more meaningful. In this first episode back, Shelby shares what those first five months have actually been like. When she bought the business, there were five employees. Today, the team has grown to roughly 15–18 people, including part-time employees. Along the way, Shelby and her team have been working on everything from inventory and systems to SOPs, team structure, company culture, and the financial side of running a brick-and-mortar business. She also opens up about something she didn’t fully understand before stepping into the acquisition: just how much there is to learn when you become responsible for an entire business. But this episode isn’t just about business. Shelby also talks about what it feels like to build businesses while raising two young kids and trying to be a present mom and wife. She shares the reality of early mornings, late nights, dropping the kids off, picking them up, working around family life, and dealing with the guilt that can come with feeling like you’re never doing enough in one area because you’re focused on another. And perhaps the biggest shift of all is how Shelby now sees the future of Connie’s. This episode is an honest introduction to the next chapter of the podcast, a place where Shelby will talk about the wins, the failures, the stressful moments, the lessons, the business decisions, motherhood, and the reality of figuring things out as she goes. If you’re building a business, thinking about buying one, growing a team, navigating motherhood and entrepreneurship, or simply trying to figure out your own next chapter, this episode is for you.

In this episode, Shelby takes you inside one of the most transformative business experiences of her journey, attending a high-level scaling workshop led by Alex Hormozi. She pulls back the curtain on what it actually felt like to step into a room filled with high-level entrepreneurs, where growth is expected, decisions are bigger, and the standards are higher than ever. From navigating moments of doubt and imposter syndrome to making bold, uncomfortable decisions in real time, Shelby shares the unfiltered truth of what it takes to evolve as a business owner. You’ll hear her reflect on the mindset shifts that separate businesses that stay stuck from those that scale, especially the shift from thinking like a manager to thinking like an investor. She also dives into what it really means to grow from a 6-figure or 7-figure business into something much bigger, and why most entrepreneurs struggle to break through that next level. This isn’t surface-level advice or recycled tips. It’s raw, honest, and grounded in real experience, the kind that forces you to look at your business differently and question how you’re currently operating. Inside this episode, Shelby unpacks lessons around scaling your business with intention instead of chasing everything, overcoming fear and self-doubt when you’re in unfamiliar rooms, making investments that feel scary but necessary, and building a personal brand that people genuinely trust and connect with. She also highlights the power of being in the right environment, learning from people who have already done what you’re trying to do, and why proximity can accelerate your growth faster than anything else. If you’ve ever found yourself questioning whether you’re ready for the next level, feeling stuck where you are, or wondering what it really takes to grow beyond your current reality this episode will push you to think bigger, act bolder, and start seeing your business through a completely different lens.

From growing up around her family’s business to carving her own path, building something from scratch, and eventually stepping into ownership… this is the full-circle story you don’t usually get to hear.

In this honest and high-energy solo episode, Shelby Clement breaks down one of the biggest things holding people back from growing their business and showing up online: imposter syndrome. But not in the way you’ve heard before. This isn’t a conversation about lacking confidence or not being qualified. It’s about something much deeper and much more common. Discomfort. After reviewing and answering real questions from her audience, Shelby noticed a pattern. People are putting out polished, curated content, but avoiding the one thing that actually builds trust and drives conversion: showing up as themselves. They’re hiding behind graphics. They’re avoiding being on camera. They’re overthinking every move. And then wondering why nothing is working. Shelby explains that imposter syndrome isn’t a sign that you’re not good enough. It’s a sign that you’re stepping into something new, something unfamiliar, and something outside of your comfort zone. And instead of pushing through that discomfort, most people retreat. Throughout this episode, Shelby challenges you to rethink how you show up online and in your business. She shares why connection will always outperform perfection, why being relatable is your biggest advantage, and why waiting until you feel “ready” is what’s keeping you stuck. She also opens up about her own experiences navigating business growth, motherhood, and high-pressure seasons where things don’t always go according to plan. It’s a reminder that even at higher levels, the doubt, pressure, and uncertainty don’t disappear, you just learn how to move through them. This episode is for anyone who: Feels stuck in their content or business Struggles with showing up on camera Overthinks and avoids taking action Worries about being judged or “doing it wrong” If you’ve been waiting to feel confident before showing up, this episode will shift your perspective. Because confidence doesn’t come before action. Action builds confidence. No fluff. No sugarcoating. Just real, honest truth that will push you to stop hiding and start showing up.

In this raw and unfiltered solo episode, Shelby Clement says what most people are already thinking, but don’t have the courage to say out loud. This is not your typical motivational talk filled with surface-level advice or quick bursts of inspiration that fade after a few hours. It’s a real, honest, and deeply reflective conversation, the kind that might feel uncomfortable at times, but in a way that pushes you to grow. The kind that makes you pause, question yourself, and realize where you’ve been holding yourself back. Shelby dives into the real reasons your business isn’t growing and why your content isn’t getting the traction you expected. And no it’s not the algorithm, bad luck, or lack of opportunity. It comes down to the things most people avoid taking responsibility for: lack of clarity, lack of strategy, inconsistency, discipline, and avoiding the uncomfortable actions that actually lead to growth. She breaks down the patterns that keep people stuck overthinking every move, waiting for the “perfect” time, constantly starting over, or convincing themselves they need more time when in reality, they need more focus. Through her direct and no-filter approach, she challenges you to look at your habits, your mindset, and your daily actions in a completely different way. Throughout this episode, you will likely feel called out but also understood. Shelby brings a level of honesty that feels like a tough conversation with someone who genuinely wants to see you win. It’s not about tearing you down, it’s about waking you up to your potential and helping you realize that the results you want are on the other side of the work you’ve been avoiding. This episode is for anyone who feels stuck in a cycle whether it’s inconsistency, self-doubt, procrastination, or simply not seeing results despite “trying.” It’s for those who know they’re capable of more but haven’t fully stepped into it yet. If you’ve been waiting for a sign to get serious, to stop making excuses, and to finally take aligned action, this is it. No fluff. No sugarcoating. Just real talk, honest truths, and the kind of perspective that doesn’t just motivate you for a moment, but pushes you to actually do something about it.

What does it really feel like to chase something big… while everything in your life feels stretched? In this deeply personal solo episode, Shelby opens up about the behind-the-scenes reality of stepping into a new level, buying a business while navigating motherhood, leadership, and the constant pressure she places on herself to show up everywhere at once. She shares what doesn’t get talked about enough: the emotional highs and lows, the unexpected setbacks in the acquisition process, and the quiet moments of self-doubt that creep in when you’re making big decisions. This episode is a raw and honest reflection of what growth actually looks and feels like not polished, not perfect, but real. From feeling overwhelmed and questioning everything, to finding moments of clarity and faith, Shelby talks about the internal battles that come with chasing bigger goals. She dives into the importance of surrender, trusting God even when things don’t make sense, and learning to move forward without having all the answers. She also challenges the idea of being “100%” in every role, and shares a powerful reminder: your best will look different in every season and that’s okay. If you’re in a season of transition, building something new, feeling stretched between responsibilities, or questioning your next step… this episode will meet you where you are. You’re not behind. You’re not alone. And you’re allowed to grow through a season that feels uncertain.

What if starting over is not the end… but the beginning of the life you were always meant to live? In this episode, Shelby sits down with Samantha Joe for a deeply raw, honest, and emotional conversation about healing, motherhood, divorce, abuse recovery, confidence, and what it truly looks like to rebuild your life when everything changes. Samantha opens up about walking away from an abusive relationship, a decision that takes more courage than most people will ever understand. She shares what it was like navigating divorce, carrying the weight of starting over, and stepping into a completely new chapter while raising her children and trying to find herself again in the process. From moving to Utah to rebuilding her identity piece by piece, Samantha takes us through the reality of healing not the polished version we often see online, but the messy, emotional, and deeply personal journey of learning to trust yourself again. She also shares how stepping back into social media helped her rediscover her voice, rebuild her confidence, and create a space where she could finally show up as her full, authentic self. Together, Shelby and Samantha dive into powerful conversations around: self-worth and learning to stop settlingpersonal growth during life’s hardest seasonsmotherhood while rebuilding your identityhealing from emotional and physical abuseconfidence, self-talk, and overcoming doubtsocial media and content creation as a form of expression and connectionwhat it really means to stop hiding who you are This episode goes beyond just “starting over.” It’s about reclaiming your voice.

This conversation is for the woman who is quietly rebuilding. The one who is learning to trust herself again. The one who feels like she’s behind but is actually in the middle of becoming. And the one who needs a reminder that her story isn’t over yet. Because even in the hardest seasons, there is still growth. There is still healing. And there is still so much more ahead for you.

In this episode, Shelby sits down with Carly Porter — a stay-at-home mom of three (with baby number four on the way) who has been sharing her real, everyday life online and unintentionally building a community through honest, relatable content. Carly opens up about how social media first started as a creative outlet during the busy and sometimes overwhelming seasons of motherhood. What began as a simple way to connect and share stories slowly turned into something bigger as more people began relating to her raw, funny, and authentic moments as a mom. During the conversation, Carly shares the unexpected moment she received an opportunity to join the NUUDS creator program — something she never saw coming. She talks about the mix of excitement, disbelief, and imposter syndrome that followed, and how this experience pushed her to start taking content creation more seriously while still staying true to who she is. Shelby and Carly dive into conversations many women quietly struggle with: comparison on social media, the fear of judgment, balancing motherhood with personal dreams, and learning how to show up online without overthinking every post. Carly shares what it’s really like to build something online while raising small children and why embracing imperfection has been one of her biggest lessons. They also talk about the importance of setting boundaries with social media, protecting your mental health, and remembering that connection matters far more than numbers or engagement. Carly shares practical encouragement for moms who feel called to create but hesitate because of fear, time constraints, or outside opinions. This conversation is honest, encouraging, and filled with moments that will resonate with anyone trying to navigate motherhood, creativity, and personal growth at the same time. If you’ve ever wondered whether there’s space for you online, whether your voice matters, or if you’re capable of building something while managing the chaos of real life — this episode is a reminder that there is always room at the table.

What happens when you finally stop caring what people think and start showing up as yourself? In this episode, Shelby sits down with Kelsey a former corporate employee turned content creator and mom whose life completely changed after she decided to take a chance on herself, even before she had proof it would work. Kelsey shares the real, unfiltered story behind her journey. From working a traditional corporate job and becoming a new mom, to slowly building her presence online and discovering opportunities she never imagined possible. She opens up about what it felt like in the beginning posting with no expectations, battling imposter syndrome, and questioning whether she was truly capable of creating something of her own. They talk about the transition from corporate to content creation, how she started landing brand deals, and what actually happens behind the scenes as a creator. Kelsey also shares how consistency, faith, and learning to trust her voice played a major role in helping her grow. This conversation dives into the messy middle the years of showing up when no one was watching, the fear of being judged by people who knew her, and the moments of doubt that almost made her stop. And then, the turning point. The moment when things finally started to click, and she realized this path was leading somewhere bigger. Shelby and Kelsey also discuss why authenticity is the foundation of long-term success, and why trying to follow someone else’s formula will never be as powerful as simply being yourself. This episode is for anyone who feels like they’re meant for more… but is still waiting for the right time to start. It’s a reminder that you don’t need to have everything figured out. You don’t need a perfect plan. And you don’t need permission. You just need the courage to begin. Because your life can change the moment you decide to show up.

What if your life-changing opportunity was waiting on the other side of simply showing up — even when you feel unsure, unready, or unseen? In this episode, Shelby sits down with Sarah, pediatric occupational therapist, new mom, and fellow NUUDist, whose decision to start posting on TikTok during her postpartum season unexpectedly led to her being hand-selected as one of the NUUDists — opening the door to an opportunity she never saw coming. What began as a deeply personal outlet — a way to cope with postpartum emotions, rediscover her identity, and rebuild her confidence — slowly turned into something far bigger than she imagined. With the encouragement of her supportive husband, Sarah began showing up consistently, not for fame or followers, but simply to feel like herself again. Just days into posting consistently, she received the email that would officially invite her into the NUUD community — a moment that would completely shift her trajectory. Sarah opens up about the emotional reality of postpartum, the isolation many new mothers experience, and the fear that comes with putting yourself out there — especially when people you know are watching. She shares what it felt like to be chosen as a NUUDist, stepping into rooms she never imagined being in, and how being surrounded by ambitious, driven women helped her see a version of herself she hadn’t fully stepped into yet. She also talks about the unforgettable moment she received the NUUD email, the whirlwind experience of meeting the other NUUDists, and how community, courage, and consistency can unlock doors you didn’t even know were available to you. This conversation is raw, honest, and deeply inspiring — especially for anyone who feels called to more but is afraid to take the first step, pivot their identity, or believe that bigger opportunities are possible for them. It’s a powerful reminder that you don’t need to have everything figured out to begin. Sometimes, the simple act of showing up can change your life — and sometimes, it can make you a NUUDist.
