When it comes to finding balance in business, relationships, and life, there’s a lot to unpack. Recently, I had the pleasure of sitting down with Adam LaDolce from Love Strategies—and let me tell you, this man is a powerhouse of wisdom. Not only does he know relationships inside and out, but he’s also a marketing genius. This blog post dives into the key takeaways from our conversation and how you can apply them to your business, relationships, and beyond. Let’s get started!


Repetition is Your Secret Weapon

One of the biggest “aha” moments from my chat with Adam LaDolce was his philosophy on repetition. He mentioned how his dad used to say, “Until Saturday Night Live is making a skit about you, you haven’t repeated it enough.” It’s a humorous take, but it’s 100% true. If you want to build a strong brand, whether in business or relationships, you have to be consistent.

Adam’s approach to repetition is intentional. He’s not afraid to say the same thing over and over because:

  • Most people haven’t fully implemented what you’re teaching. They need to hear it multiple times.
  • Repetition builds recognition and loyalty. People will start quoting you—and that’s when you know you’ve hit the “known” level of success.

This philosophy applies to your messaging, marketing, and even the way you communicate with your loved ones. Think of it as relationship marketing in your personal life. Are you clear, consistent, and repetitive enough about what you stand for?


Frameworks That Simplify the Complex

Adam’s “Little Love Steps” framework is a game-changer in his space. It’s simple, actionable, and memorable—exactly what every good framework should be.

Here’s why frameworks are so powerful:

  • They make the complex simple. Whether it’s a Venn diagram or a pyramid, a visual or structured concept is easier to internalize and act upon.
  • They create clarity for your audience (or your team). Adam’s team of 13 people knows exactly how the Love Strategies framework works, which keeps them aligned.
  • They’re repeatable and scalable. Once you develop a solid framework, it’s not just for you—it’s for your audience, your clients, and even your loved ones.

In my business, I’ve used what I call “napkin frameworks” to help women clarify their messaging. We’d sit down, draw it out (yes, on actual napkins sometimes), and by the end of the session, they’d have something they could easily explain and apply. The result? Confidence, clarity, and yes, more closed deals.

If you’re struggling to explain what you do or how you do it, create your own framework. Don’t overcomplicate it—simple always wins.


Marketing with Integrity

Let’s be real: marketing can feel like playing a game you don’t want to play. Adam LaDolce nailed it when he said that a lot of people think they need to sacrifice their integrity to get attention. Spoiler alert: you don’t.

Adam’s approach to marketing is a perfect example of how to balance playfulness with professionalism. One of his standout ads is called the “Held Hostage” ad, where he’s tied up in ropes and duct tape, saying, “Emotionally unavailable men don’t want you to see this.” It’s clever, engaging, and still aligns with his brand’s integrity.

The takeaway? Be bold, be creative, but stay true to yourself. Your audience wants to see the real you, not some overly polished or inauthentic version. Women in the BossMom community often say they don’t want to be their industry’s best-kept secret. They want to be known for their brains, not their dance moves, and they want to market in a way that their kids won’t cringe at later.

Here’s how you can do that:

  • Focus on serious or playful truisms. Call out the truth in a way that resonates.
  • Use humor, but keep it classy.
  • Share stories that highlight your expertise while making people feel seen and understood.

The Parallels Between Marketing and Relationships

During our conversation, Adam and I couldn’t help but notice the striking similarities between marketing and relationships. Here’s what we realized:

  1. Both require consistency. Whether it’s building trust with your audience or your partner, consistency is key.
  2. Both are about connection. The best marketing—and the best relationships—come from a place of genuine care and understanding.
  3. Both need frameworks. Frameworks provide structure and clarity, whether you’re trying to win over a client or a romantic partner.

How to Stay the Course Without Burning Out

One of Adam’s best pieces of advice? Stick to the script. As entrepreneurs and creatives, it’s easy to get distracted by shiny objects. But when you change your messaging too often, you risk losing your audience’s trust.

Adam admits he’s made this mistake before, but he’s learned to stay the course. “Don’t get bored with your messaging,” he says. “Repeat it over and over again. People love it.”

This is true in relationships too. How many times have you had to remind yourself not to fall into old patterns? Repetition isn’t boring—it’s how we internalize and master the things that matter most.


Finding Joy in the Everyday

We ended our chat on a lighthearted note, with Adam sharing three things that are making him happy right now:

  1. Kite surfing (because who doesn’t love a good adrenaline rush?).
  2. A Morgan Wallen concert (a little country music never hurts).
  3. Podcasts (because conversations like ours reignite his passion).

His answer reminded me how important it is to find joy in the little things, whether it’s a hobby, a shared experience, or just taking time to reflect on what makes you happy.


Final Thoughts

Adam LaDolce’s insights on repetition, frameworks, and marketing with integrity aren’t just relevant for business—they’re life lessons. Whether you’re building a brand, a relationship, or both, these principles can guide you toward success.

And let’s not forget the biggest takeaway: You don’t have to compromise your values to win. Be consistent, create clarity, and stay true to yourself. The right people will notice.
