with host artist Miriam Schulman
Social media isn’t just shifting, it’s transforming into something completely new. What used to feel like flipping through a bulletin board now works more like an AI-powered crystal ball predicting what your audience wants before they even know it. I’m pulling back the curtain on what artists and creative entrepreneurs can expect in 2026 so you can stay visible and profitable without burning out. From the rise of YouTube as the main stage to LinkedIn’s untapped potential and Facebook’s surprising staying power, this episode will give you the insights to focus your energy where it really counts.
“Authenticity is the new algorithm.” – Miriam Schulman
In this podcast, you will…
- Discover which platforms are becoming essential for creative entrepreneurs in 2026.
- Learn how AI-driven algorithms are rewriting the rules of visibility.
- Create deeper connections by leveraging authenticity and storytelling over perfection.
“The age of post and hope is over and staying visible in 2026 and beyond means leaning into AI driven personalization, creating multiformat stories, and prioritizing relationships over reach.” – Miriam Schulman

Incubator Success Story of the Week!
“The Artist Incubator gave me the gentle nudge I needed to stop playing small. I finally took the plunge and said yes to my art in a big way. I learned how to share my work without feeling weird about it, how to invite people in, and how to show up with confidence. it’s about owning the artist I am and being proud of it.
Before the program, I was creating but not really putting myself out there. The Incubator helped me build a clear path forward, from pricing my work and marketing authentically to showing up consistently and connecting with collectors. This weekend alone during my second art fair EVER, I made $3,000 in sales.
It was a pleasure watching people come to my booth and admire my new artwork like they were in a gallery!
