I'm launching a LT offer ⚡️
My goal is to launch a LT offer to a brand-new community, drive eyeballs and conversions to get Growth Boost cranking for me, and do 100% of selling through DMs. If y'all are interested in specifics, maybe I could talk more about this? PS— ALL ADVICE WELCOME! Please help me make this a 10/10 launch ⚡️

@Lynne Vella Lynne, THIS is what I was curious about. 👀 Your lower price has a job. You’re using it to help get people through the door while the higher-ticket offers live inside the community. I really like that you’re going to give this setup some time before changing it again. Otherwise it gets pretty hard to know what actually worked. 😂 Thanks for weighing in. This is something many of us tend to way overthink! @Charlie Schaffer I’m curious whether any of Lynne’s thinking connects with what you’re building.🤔 🔨

This One Made Me SMILE🤗
Well, this makes me happy. ❤️ Welcome to Skoolology, @Kathryn Zabinski! Kathryn and I have known each other for a long time, so seeing her walk through this particular door feels pretty special. I’m really glad you’re here, my friend. Now I’m curious...what made you decide to come hang out with us over here? 😊

COMMON GROUND 🎁
A mysterious package just showed up with your name on it. Inside is something you would absolutely LOVE to find. No rules. Something you lost. Something you’ve always wanted. Something that doesn’t even exist. 😂 What are you hoping is in the box? Mine would be my grandmother’s recipe book. The funny thing is, there never was one. She made everything from scratch and, as far as I know, never wrote any of it down. We have none of her delicious recipes. So somehow, my mystery box contains the recipe book I wish she had left us. ❤️ What would be in yours?

@Oddysey Campbell 😂😂 Well, I can’t blame you because I’ve got questions, too! 😂 We’d probably get about five minutes in before they were like, “Nope. That’s enough from you two.” 😂❤️

@Jewels Sherriff Ohhh, I love this one. ❤️ And I’m guessing it’s not really about the crock pot. It’s about her baked beans coming out of that crock pot. Some things just never taste quite the same when someone else makes them. ❤️

I've noticed a few of us lately looking around at what everyone else is building, and quietly feeling behind. So let's talk about comparison for a minute, because it's a thief, and it's stealing something from you that you'd want back. Think about what you're actually looking at when you compare. You see someone whose community seems further along, more polished, more alive, and you measure yourself against it. But what are you really seeing? The finished front, or everything it took to build it? Because they didn't just arrive there. Nobody does. Look at anyone further down the road, and you're looking at someone who went through the exact building you're in right now, the messy middle, the mistakes, the quiet weeks, the nights they weren't sure it was working. You just don't get to see that part. Look a little closer at the gap you feel between you and them and ask what's actually in it. Is it talent? Luck? Some secret you missed? Or is it something quieter and more ordinary? Did they hit the same walls you're hitting, and instead of quitting, they reflected, adjusted, tried another way, and kept their eyes on their own target? Which one is it, really? Because if the difference is talent or luck, that's out of your hands. But if the difference is that they simply kept going, that's a different story entirely. And that one is available to you. Perhaps the answer to comparison isn't to look away from other people, because that never really works anyway. Maybe it's to change what you take from looking. Instead of "they have what I don't," what if it became "they kept going, and so can I"? That's the learner's mindset. Studying the process instead of envying the product, understanding that success was never an arrival. It was always a practice. Here's what I'll leave you to consider... The next time you catch yourself comparing your community to someone else's, what if you asked a different question, not "why am I so far behind them?" but "what did they refuse to give up on, and what would it look like to refuse to give up on mine?"

@Jewels Sherriff Jewels, this whole comment is you doing the exact work in real time, and it's really beautiful to watch. You caught the comparison voice, and instead of letting it tell you you're behind, you reminded yourself what's actually true. They've put in the work, maybe for years longer than you have. That's not a small skill. That's the whole reframe, and you did it yourself. What you shared about the pivot is genuinely moving. You parked your coaching for six years, and now it feels like home. That's not a detour, that's you finding your way back to the thing that was always yours. The journals were never the wrong turn. They were part of how you got here. Nothing's wasted when it leads you home. I especially love that you named your messy middle out loud, the landing page built around one thing, and then your heart quietly saying, "actually, it's midlife women, it's Courage Collective." Do you see what that is? That's not a mistake to be embarrassed about. That's you getting clearer. The landing page didn't fail, it did its job. It showed you what wasn't quite right so your heart could point you toward what is. Realizing your true direction isn't failure. It's the most important refining there is. And "this isn't failure, it's refining" might be the truest thing said in here all week. Write that one on your wall. You're not behind, Jewels. You're becoming. Keep showing up, keep breathing, keep the coffee coming. You're exactly on your path. ☕🧡

Where energy goes energy flows.
Early this year, after 2 years offline @Mikael Van gogh and I descided to build a new online business, but it had to be fully aligned with our Human designs. If you don't know what that is, in a really short form its your energetic Blueprint. It takes a lot of letting go of thinking, and a lot of being in the body. Its been quite a process. ❤️😅 Luckily we are both here to share our lived experience so that has been our foundation for anything else.🙌 Going back online also meant building a new online presence, and we both felt stuck in our energy when we went back to following trends and polished content 🫣 It took a lot of walks, breathwork and reflection and feeling into our designs. But what came out if it was magical,💥 Mikael created a group around his passion which has nothing to do with our business, suddenly he had a joyful energy around showing up building his community of likeminded people. Even though it will take time and effort if feels effortless for him.🥳🫶 I took a bit longer, as my design is to sleep on things and gain emotional clarity🥰 I got in the last week and I have now created my own group around my passion for human design. And I got my mojo back loving the energy around showing up. 🥳🥰 If we show up against our own energy we will vibrate that and people will feel that. The same goes if we show up fully aligned ❤️🥰🙏 We had to slow down to speed up and when we did that the energy shifted immediately and that is what will make us magnetic to the people we are going to attract to our paid group. 🥰🥳
