More about Social Media Manager Confidential:
The Social Media Manager Confidential is the podcast for social media managers who want realistic, positive, and insightful resources so they can build an ethical, money-making business that supports their lifestyle goals. Each week, your host Shanté Gorman (that’s me) and my guests will share strategies & content tips, what we do and don’t love about working in the industry, and give transparent advice about running a social media management business. We’re dishing on the ins and outs of the social media management world without any of the gatekeeping that can come along with it. You’ll learn, you’ll laugh, and you’ll leave each episode inspired.
I was a broke single mom turned founder of a multi 6-figure social media management agency and I mentor social media managers working on creating agencies of their own.

Hi, I’m Shanté! I built Sugarpunch while raising two young children as a single mom, giving me firsthand perspective on the value of time and efficient systems. This experience directly influenced our streamlined processes and commitment to ethical, inclusive marketing.
I believe everyone deserves marketing that respects both creator and audience while delivering measurable results. We focus on sustainable strategies that build genuine connections rather than chasing trends or using manipulative tactics.
