Can we give a massive warm welcome to @Marco Berlin the creator of Skool Extensions who has just joined us as our newest Resident Expert! 🎉 Now let me tell you why I'm genuinely excited about this one. Marco didn't set out to build a Skool extension business. He just looked at Skool after using it for 18 months, noticed a bunch of things that were missing, and thought "I'll just build them." What started as a hobby project has, in the space of a few weeks, turned into what I genuinely believe is going to be 𝘁𝗵𝗲 #𝟭 𝗺𝘂𝘀𝘁-𝗵𝗮𝘃𝗲 𝘁𝗼𝗼𝗹 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘆 𝗦𝗸𝗼𝗼𝗹 𝗼𝘄𝗻𝗲𝗿 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗺𝗲𝗺𝗯𝗲𝗿 on the planet. This is a prime example of one of my core beliefs - following your passion, solving a problem, and making a business from something because you believe in it. It's just what happens when someone with real skills solves a real problem because they actually care about fixing it. And THAT, my friends, is how it's done! 🙌 No MBA. No big launch strategy. No guru BS. Just a guy who spotted a gap, and built something awesome. 𝗦𝗼 𝘄𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗱𝗼𝗲𝘀 𝗶𝘁 𝗮𝗰𝘁𝘂𝗮𝗹𝗹𝘆 𝗱𝗼? Skool Extensions adds all the things Skool doesn't have yet. Things like: - 📅 Community calendar - 💬 Group chat - 🎙️ Voice and video messages - 📌 Bookmarks - Bold text (finally 😅) - Member lists, tagging systems, sales pipelines and CRM profiles for admins - And coming very soon — a full Workflow Builder with Skool Automations that Marco says will be so powerful you won't need any other Chrome extension ever again. 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗯𝗲𝘀𝘁 𝗯𝗶𝘁? The member features are 𝗳𝗿𝗲𝗲. 𝗙𝗼𝗿𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿. (Our favourite price) Not a 14-day trial. Not a "freemium bait and switch." Genuinely powerful features that stay free for you and your members, always. If you want the admin superpowers, there's a premium version at $47/month, and here's the bit I love most: if you recommend it to enough people who go premium, 𝗶𝘁 𝗽𝗮𝘆𝘀 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗶𝘁𝘀𝗲𝗹𝗳. Marco has set affiliate commissions at 20%, which means this is another tool in your earn-while-you-help toolkit. Very on brand for this community. 😏

What goes in Premium and what is Free? I created a program based on my clinical experience as a therapist and my lived experience. I took what I do in therapy and "put it on paper." The program works - that is not the issue. Where I am struggling - my ethics, morals, and character vs the desire to make money. I've been told that I need to lock down my classroom, lock down my program, and make it all premium. I currently have 4 courses and in May will be starting a new one. Right now, my main program is free. I want members to use it. I charge Premium for anything that is a direct interaction with me: weekly body doubling, weekly live group coaching, and monthly Doom Pile sessions. So my question is: Do I lock down my classroom and make it all premium? Do I continue to do what feels good to me? I don't know. I waver on this all the time.

Rest and relaxation. How often do you indulge in it? As a biz owner it's important to build this into your daily schedule. Yeah, I know, you don't have time. But we all have the same amount of time. So why not make it a non-negotiable. spend one-hour a day unplugging from SM, your biz, and indulge in me-time. Make it a priority. Block out the time on your calendar. Do you know what will happen? 🗝️Your biz will soar. 🗝️You will be serving from a cup that overflows. 🗝️Your body, mind, and spirit will be well rested. For the last two weeks, I've been exploring Japan and Busan, South Korea. This was such a relaxing and wonderful trip and the perfect way to unplug.

Honored to be here as a Resident Expert inside this amazing community 🔥 Huge respect to the vision behind this space and what’s being built here - bringing people together to learn, grow, and actually build something real. And I’m genuinely excited to contribute to that. Because if you’re building a business on Instagram in 2026… You need to understand one thing: Growth isn’t random anymore. It’s engineered. Most people think Instagram success is about posting more, better content, or getting lucky. It’s not. It’s algorithmic. And in May 2026… everything evolved. The platform got smarter.More precise.More selective. It now tracks: - What your content means (not just what it says) - Who it’s for (before it even pushes it) - And how people respond across multiple layers - Because Instagram isn’t one algorithm… It’s multiple systems working together to decide one thing: Who gets seen… and who doesn’t And that’s exactly why I created The Algorithm Advantage. Not for hacks. Not for trends. Not for guesswork. But for clarity, control, and consistent growth. If you’re here to build something real on Instagram… You’re in the right place 🤍 Holler at me on IG https://www.instagram.com/taraomalleyofficial?igsh=bG5wOXBqOWtrc2x3&utm_source=qr Also - credit to the creators of and in this space. We’re building something special here 🙌

I just want to Welcome and fully acknowledge @Kristine Alise 🙌 An actual OG from day one, back in the “Her'es an idea in my head - what about if we built a community that actually supports and helps people...?” days last summer. We originally met and became friends in Raven's Community Revenue Revolution where we still hang out because it's an awesome community with the same vibe. Kristine’s been right there beside me ever since… supporting, jumping in, figuring things out, and helping shape this into what it is now.... and with with zero agenda other than genuinely wanting to help people. Next to my wife, she’s my unofficial no.2 (couldn’t have done this without her, honestly), a super creative go-getter, and founder of Foxy AI Ladies 🦊 helping women 50+ take action (even when confidence is still catching up 💥). I don't think she even realises quite how much confidence she has given me to stop dragging my heels and get this community built! (work clearly still in progress! 😂) And this week, she has been helping sooo much. If it wasn't for her, literally asking for my to-do list every morning, and asking what she can do to help, I would be postponing the launch a second time! Kristine, I know most people have got to know your beautiful soul already, and if you don't already, you will! So I just wanted to stop for a second to say THANK YOU! I'm so grateful for all of the things you are doing behind the scenes to bring my vision alive! Everyone else give her some BIG love… she’s a huge part of why this place exists ✨
