Thanks to all of you who were so kind today. I didn’t have a chance to meet everyone, but everyone I met was impressive in individual ways and so kind.

Los Angeles… it’s time. Join us for our first Skool IRL: LA of 2026 — and we’re kicking it off in a big way. 📅 Sunday, March 1st 🕑 2:00 PM – 6:00 PM 📍 Brentwood (Address will be sent once you register) This is more than a meetup. This is a Mastermind for LA Skoolers. If you’re a Skool community owner (or building one), this is your room. ✨ Connect with other Skool community owners in LA ✨ Get inspired by fellow digital entrepreneurs ✨ Share wins, challenges, ideas & breakthroughs ✨ Collaborate, mastermind, and elevate your vision ✨ Build real relationships beyond the screen There’s something powerful about getting in the same physical space with people who get it. The ideas flow differently. The connections go deeper. The momentum builds faster. We’re creating a room filled with visionaries, builders, creators, and community leaders ready to level up in 2026. Spots are limited — and it’s free. 👉 Register on Eventbrite: Click to Register Let’s make this the kind of event people talk about for months. Hosted by your Skool IRL: LA Co-Mayors @Ellie Shoja & @Brennan Thompson See you March 1st. Let’s build. 🚀

Last year’s Skool IRL in LA was special. Not just bc of the LAPD helicopter flying overhead Not just bc of the Delorean. but also, the friends we made along the way.

Thank you to everyone who attended our first independently hosted Skool IRL event in LA. Stacy flew in from Vegas. @Michelle McMillionairess and @Louis Pendley drove up from San Diego. @Rositsa Aleksandrova and @Jay Hanan graced us with their beautiful piano playing. @Tanya Miramontes left her baby at home to join us. We gathered at my home, in front of a fire place and around a table of delicious snacks. We opened by introducing ourselves, sharing our wins and goals, and asking for support around what we need to reach our goals in 2026. As your co-mayers @Brennan Thompson and I prepared talks and exercises around focus and intention setting, and the conversation quickly moved into mindset, inspiration, and the inner work we all need to do to align ourselves with our dreams. The event was scheduled for 2-5 PM. It lasted for over 6 hours! If you were at this IRL, let us know the highlights and any suggestions you have for Brennan and myself. Here's a video summary of the event. Enjoy! Hope to see you at the next one!

Our next LA IRL event is officially on the calendar! We'll be meeting on Saturday, December 13 at 2-5PM for coffee, snacks, fun, and new years intentions. @Brennan Thompson and I hope that all of you will be able to attend!
