73: Authenticity is Your Currency – Consciousness and Biz Trends in 2025 & 2026
Tue Nov 18 2025
The demand for new healing modalities is growing, #yay, but it's taking buyers longer than ever to purchase. In today's episode, Molly shares some trends that will continue in 2026, both collective consciousness trends, and business trends. In this episode, you'll hear all about how:
Sales cycles now require 15 to 20 quality touches before a purchase, reflecting a shift to longer buying journeys and deeper customer nurturing
Authenticity is critical as AI usage becomes baseline and no longer differentiates brands
The wellness industry is expected to grow by 8% through 2027, driven by increased out-of-pocket health spending even in a tough economy
2026 is predicted to be the "year of community," focusing on consistent, authentic presence to build trust amid a "trust recession"
The current era is about "making the rules" that fit your unique style and business design, moving past rebelling against old norms
✨ WHAT YOU'LL LEARN
In this episode, you'll discover:
The "Golden Rule" of messaging that changes everything about how you communicate your work
Why words like clarity, confidence, and alignment can actually disconnect you from your audience
The quick language shift that turns invisible magic into visible, sellable transformation
A simple reflection exercise you can do right now to strengthen every piece of content you create
