Grand rising beautiful people! … I simply wanted to share the progress that I am making on my December bingo card. I have successfully chosen a name that aligns and resonates with everything that I bring to the table. Temple & Tongue Studios —a poetry, film, and storytelling studio that expresses the mission through art, is now the Creative/production arm of my holistic wellness nonprofit organization - Temple Health Concepts. Next, I will be highlighting the 10 services that I will be offering come 2026. … And just know that I have something exclusively special for my PBN family!

Poets, We’ve reviewed all the submissions… and the winner of this month’s Poetry Business Bingo —AND the $100 Shopping Spree in The Poet Life Shop —is @SunnyTaira Wyatt ! ☀️🔥 Sunny showed up, took action, completed a Bingo row AND column, and embodied exactly what this challenge is about: Momentum. Growth. Ownership. Help me congratulate her in the comments! 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 💡 And for everyone else… keep filling in your Bingo cards. Whether you won the prize or not, the REAL reward is the work you’re putting into your poetry business: ✨ Every square you complete builds a new professional skill. ✨ Every row strengthens your brand and your clarity. ✨ Every bit of progress compounds and positions you for more opportunities in 2026. ✨ And the more you participate, the more confident and “business ready” you become. January’s Bingo is coming —and the momentum you build this month is what sets the tone for your next level. So don't stop!! Keep going. Keep building. Keep claiming your transformation into a Poetry Business Owner.

Everyone can complete at least 2 of these tasks! Which one have you completed and which one will you complete this week?
