@Michael Lennertz, a gift, or just more annoying advice you didn't ask for: It's a Google doc, that's all. It was a solo attempt to outline what I'd consider doing if I were you and wanted to grow. For everyone else, it's a sales pitch, before I leave the host of the community position. Not really a pitch, no numbers or CTA, just showing (off) the way I think. Several of you could have a plan and focus by next week if you want my DWY help. I'm still making branding changes and website changes, but you all may want to find me here: https://substack.com/@encoresociety and subscribe, especially if you're over 50 and not ready for the "beige-life".

You guessed it, the audio didn't pick up. *15 minutes of me discussing my 6 months of research *My total rebrand and why *The self-imposed challenge that I shoved out the window today, and well, I'll be writing about it over in Substack if you want the details. Good How and Why content for the newsletter, and especially good for the educational Content I'll be putting in the upgraded portion of my community. I guess the video just wasn't meant to be, or are the platform's gods already messing with the tech because I canceled? P.S. Oh, the website is down, I DELETED IT. It isn't a tech issue.

But in the meantime, I'll try putting together a new post or video explaining everything I researched to make this decision. Sort of a big, risky idea to pursue. Details tomorrow.

After 30 years in the coaching world, I’ve learned that the biggest breakthroughs don't happen in busy newsfeeds—they happen in focused implementation. I’m moving my energy away from hosting a Skool group so I can pour it into building out the definitive Legacy Vault for professionals over 50. I’m not leaving Skool. I’ll still be hanging out in other communities—but I’m closing this room to eliminate the noise. The Plan Forward: - The New Hub: All my writing and strategy deep dives are moving to Substack. You can join us for free (or upgrade for the full experience) here: coachingjumpstart.substack.com/subscribe - The Legacy Vault: I’m currently building the members' area at coachjumpstart.com. Over the next 6 weeks, I’ll be filling the Vault with the blueprints to turn your wisdom into a profitable asset. - The Exclusive Cap: To keep the quality high, I’m only accepting 500 members total into the Vault. - DWY Coaching: For those who want me in the trenches with them, I’m limiting my 'Done-With-You' coaching to just 2-3 spots per month. Thank you for being part of this stage. Let’s go build something that lasts. Jim

Happy birthday @Janna Skroch
