Hey everyone - popping in to share something I'm really excited about this month. AI That Sells, hosted by the incredible @Monica Froese is a free, live 4-day event happening April 20 - 24 inside the Empowered AI Collective here on Skool. I'm one of the 50+ contributors. Every session and resource inside is built around one question: how do you actually use AI to generate revenue? Not just produce more content. Revenue.

Right now, social media feels soul-suckingly stressful in my business. 😒 Social media has never felt like somewhere I want to call home. I’ve never wanted to be an influencer or a content creator. I remember when social media was truly about connection with those you knew (though I really wasn't on it then either) and now it just feels like a contest made for extroverted people who’s trying to make us all compete to see who can find the most “friends” (followers) like currency. I’ve been a freelance Business of One for the last 5 years and have sustained my business without the use of social media. Now I feel like I don’t necessarily own my time the same way I did when I started. I’m missing that ✨creative spark✨ I used to have and now want to enjoy my business again. As a writer and editor at heart and in practice, I know that sharing through ✍🏽 is probably the route I need to take, but social media has made it seem like we have to be physically visible to even matter or find our people. That’s where the amount of choices out there gets to be overwhelming too. Instagram feels like too much. I think I’ll like YouTube. Maybe Substack works better. Maybe Pinterest and/or Threads as a second funnel. It can get exhausting to know what to choose what’s best for me. 😵‍💫 That’s where I get stuck. Because I just want to make a good living reading books, writing stories, and editing manuscripts for amazing women who want to tell their story. 💜 I think we’re being convinced that social media is necessary to do that so people push that, but I don’t think so…or maybe just don’t want that to be true for everyone. I appreciate you all for reading this. 🫶🏽 As you see, I can write a lot with relative ease; however, when thinking about social media content, *🦉 🦉🦉*. I'm still figuring out my lane while trying to have some fun while doing it (if that's even possible) but I know that email is definitely a route I want to take. Now to get people to find it and join — that's my next step for now.

A super simple challenge to help you finally send your next email (or your first one if you haven’t started yet). Nothing complicated. No overthinking. Just getting it DONE in a few days. Before I put it together, I want to check… Would you actually want this? If yes, comment below with: 👉 “I’m in” 👉 or tell me where you’re at right now: - haven’t started yet - stuck / not sending consistently - overthinking what to send Also - what feels hardest for you right now when it comes to email? I’m building this based on what you need!

Sooo I remembered mid afternoon that today was my youtube upload day, and not next Thursday 😅 normally I would freak out because OMG I am so behind and then get so overwhelemd with everything that I would just freeze and not do anything. Talk about procrastination with perfectionism....it's a nightmate LMAO Anyway, I pulled my granny panties up and set my space up in my studio to record, hit record and GOT THE VIDEO IN ONE TAKE! I barely even had to edit it! So, it is done. It got recorded, it got a smidge of editing, and it got uploaded in all of an hour. I am so proud of myself ☺️🥰 How was your day?

Over the past few weeks, I’ve been paying really close attention to what you actually need support with… and where things feel most powerful inside this space. And something has become really clear: Most of you aren’t here for “more content.” You’re here because you want to actually start sending emails, grow your list, and turn it into something that works for your business. So I’m simplifying things. Going forward, this space is going to be much more focused on: - building your email list - sending emails consistently - and growing your business with email (without relying on social media) You’ll also start to see more structured challenges and step-by-step experiences inside the group, so you’re not just learning… you’re actually implementing. Nothing you’ve already got access to is going anywhere. This is about making the space clearer, more focused, and more useful for you. I’m really excited about this next phase and I think you will be too!
