Before we dive into our goals for July, I want to take a massive moment to recognise three incredible Resident Experts who have been showing up, dropping absolute gold, and adding immense value to our community over the last month. People who give the most, get the most. So please join me in congratulating our top three Resident Expert champions for June, who all get a spot at the very top of the classroom. 🥇 𝟭𝘀𝘁 𝗣𝗹𝗮𝗰𝗲 𝗛𝗲𝗮𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿 𝗕𝗼𝗲𝗿𝘀 Taking the absolute top spot for June is Heather! She has been a powerhouse of support and advice in here all month. If you haven't connected with her yet, Heather runs The Directory On Skool. It is a brilliant visibility community for online business owners who are ready to stop shrinking and start getting found by the exact people searching for what they do. She even hosts an awesome "Red Light, Green Light" pitch-feedback game to help you ditch cookie-cutter pitches. If you want to stop getting lost in the algorithm, you need to be in her world. 👉 Check out Heather's community here 🥈 𝟮𝗻𝗱 𝗣𝗹𝗮𝗰𝗲 𝗞𝗿𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗲 𝗔𝗹𝗶𝘀𝗲 Coming in hot at number two is Kristine! Kristine has been bringing incredible energy to our discussions. Over in her own space, along with @Mary Newton She Builds Anyway, they have created a phenomenal free AI community specifically for women building digital income. Whether you are a mom building a side hustle in your "stolen hours" or a woman over 50 reinventing yourself with "reclaimed hours," Kristine and Mary breaks down AI tools like ChatGPT and Claude into plain English with zero overwhelm. 👉 Check out Kristine's community here

Hope you're having a lovely weekend. We've just had a great walk, some exercise moving the branches and logs, and had a lovely Chinese takeaway meal for tea. Our family discussion over dinner was about imagining if you woke up one morning and ever person in the world was gone. This came about because my eldest son was asking why we (his parents) are so sociable, and he is not. It's an interesting thought that would be my personal worst nightmare. A world without people for me would not be a world I would want to live in. Then we moved onto a subject that what if everything man made was gone? Only nature exists... No tech, no houses, no money... It's a really thought provoking one that changes a lot of power dynamics. So which one would you choose? Tell me why below. You wake up tomorrow and...

A community is not a community if there's just one person broadcasting in it. It's a lecture. A community becomes a community when people are having conversations, sharing stories and differing points of view. It's very difficult to do this alone, so I recommend buddying up with one or two other skool Community owners and be as active and add as much value in their Community as you do your own. If they do the same then all of you have a much more interesting community that people will want to be part of and participate in, then if the same amount of content was provided by just one of you. It's quite obviously something we encourage in here and I would love to hear stories where this has or even hasn't worked for you.

... And well done too to my super worthy competitors and friends up on the podium with me @David Ashby & @Donny Baker. 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝘀𝗲𝗰𝗿𝗲𝘁? I did say that if we won I would show you how - well, there's a small but brilliant cheat code here. Just tell a friend or two about Wingman, and when they realise how brilliant and awesome it is, and wonder how they ever Skooled without it, you get a massive amount of points! 𝗧𝗼𝗽 𝗧𝗶𝗽 The power combo - Combine it with The Free Skool Extension to give your skool superpowers! And, to WIN a 1:1 with @Goose Dunlavey to plan my next strategy, it would have been worth signing myself up several times to win that!

For those of you that have joined with in the last 4 weeks or so, I changed the bot check to this question. It astounds me and amuses me that so many people get it wrong. The great thing is it is the only test that has managed to trip up AI but I don't suppose it will for much longer. My son and I spent a good hour testing all sorts of questions. The only problem is a lot of people seem to struggle with it too... Many people say there's no picture or less than three. I think my favourite guess so far was was " someone's bum" and " a bird's eye view of a woman" 😂 So is it just an age thing? In a day before emojis, and we had to try and make our own? We just used to be able to make all sorts of pictures on the little square Nokia screen. Would anyone care to either guess again or put the people out of their misery who had no idea? There are actually two correct answers. So..... What is this a picture of? <3
