I watched throughout the live event and he added a crazy amount of value. We were able to get his $100Mill Money Model books and some other goodies. Just took advantage of the 90-Days free and $9/mth (forever) to start my Skool community. Still in the process of figuring out exactly what my community is going to be about. Something related to Small Business, Technology, and learning. Would love to collab and pick each others' brains a bit.. โ˜บ๏ธ
Growth Hurts. Even when itโ€™s self-induced.
Iโ€™m making some changesโ€”and to do that, Iโ€™ve put myself through what Iโ€™ll call self-induced training. The kind where you stretch yourself on purpose. Itโ€™s not always fun. In fact, itโ€™s deeply uncomfortable. I have committed to a 30 day plan - UGH! I have a love-hate relationship with it. I love the idea of who Iโ€™m becoming. I love the goal(s) that I hope to achieve by the end of the 30 days BUT I hate how awkward, uncertain, and unpolished it feels getting there. But hereโ€™s what Iโ€™m learning: discomfort isnโ€™t just part of growthโ€”itโ€™s the signal that youโ€™re actually growing. And today I did actually learn something totally new - and so I grew! Research backs this up - which I kinda needed in order to motivate myself! A study by Woolley & Fishbach (2022) found that people who intentionally pursued discomfort in the name of progressโ€”whether through public speaking, emotional writing, or learning new skillsโ€”felt more motivated and grew faster than those who didnโ€™t. It's not the challenge itself, but the willingness to lean in that accelerates transformation. So Iโ€™m leaning in. Iโ€™m stretching. Not panicking. Not chilling in the comfort zone. But that messy, in-between space where real change happens. If youโ€™re here tooโ€”feeling the friction of trying to growโ€”take heart. This tension means youโ€™re doing it right. Uncomfortable? Yes. But alsoโ€ฆ unstoppable. #GrowthMindset #30DayChallenge #ProgressNotPerfection #NicoleGallucci #InGoodCompany

What are you using to track your goals and keep yourself accountable daily/weekly?
Itโ€™s Friday โ€” Whoosh, what a week.
3 Start-Up Workshops. An offsite. Coaching Sessions. Client strategy meetings Teaching. Repairs at rental property. New tenant agreement. A bake sale with my students. Some intense yard work! Today? Hosting roundtables at a conference. Oh โ€” and launching a brand new student-powered agency at George Brown College. And likely a few other things Not bragging. Not complaining. Sharing. This is the life of an entrepreneur. Busy. Busy. Busy. But when it is work you choose. Work you love (well not all of it - like the repairs and some of the yard work ๐Ÿคช) it is very fulfilling. And thatโ€™s what I wish for everyone. We all have to work. Thatโ€™s life. But the more I coach, teach, and speak, the more one truth rises to the surface: Find what you love. Then find a way to make money doing that. When your work aligns with who you are, it hits different. You may wake up tired. But you want to get out of bed. Because your work doesnโ€™t just pay bills โ€” it fills your cup. It serves you and others. It energizes. It inspires. It matters. Youโ€™ll feel peace. Youโ€™ll feel purpose. And no amount of busy will burn you out when youโ€™re lit up from within. Trust me. #EntrepreneurLife #InGoodCompany #NicoleGallucci

1. Whatโ€™s your name/nickname?Hey, Iโ€™m Derek Buchanan โ€” some people call me the go-to tech guy for small businesses, but I just go by Derek ๐Ÿ˜€ 2. Where are you from? Iโ€™ve lived in both Toronto and Belleville throughout my life. That mix of big-city energy and small-town heart really influences how I connect with people and approach my work. 3. What does a great day look like? It starts with a hug from my 6-year-old daughter โ€” sheโ€™s my pride, my joy, and the reason behind a lot of what I do. A great day includes meaningful conversations, solving real-world business tech problems, and feeling like Iโ€™ve helped someone move forward with a little more clarity and confidence. 4. Whatโ€™s your favorite book and/or whoโ€™s your favorite mentor โ€” and why? Start With Why by Simon Sinek really struck a chord with me. His belief that trust is built when we lead with purpose aligns perfectly with how I try to live and lead. Iโ€™m big on relationships, not just results. 5. Whatโ€™s your goal inside this community? To genuinely connect, learn, and add value where I can. I love helping people cut through the noise when it comes to tech and business strategy. If I can make something easier or clearer for someone, thatโ€™s a win in my book. Looking for mentorship and to meet like-minded people in our community. 6. What triggered you to sign up? It was actually your LinkedIn post that pulled me in. From there, I started exploring your events, and that journey led me here โ€” into your Skool community. It felt aligned, like a space where we all can connect and learn together. Love the idea and your mission.
