Why is WordPress not showing my most current revision of my post in my FB link?

  When I try to link to my WordPress post on Facebook, it is showing an old version of that post, and not the one that is currently displayed when you go to my website. This happens both when copy and pasting the URL into Facebook, and also when trying to share using the Facebook button at the bottom of my WordPress post.

  I am trying to launch this website TODAY and could really use the help in figuring this out!

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Hi!

  Facebook is likely displaying a cached result for this page. Can you try running it through the Facebook debugger here?

  https://developers.facebook.com/tools/debug/og/object/

  Just input the URL of the page or post you’re referring to and click “Fetch new scrape information.” Then, when you post to Facebook, you should see the updated page!
