Hey everyone! Quick update on how coaching calls are working going forward. 🔄 WHY THE CHANGE I'm going heads-down on EMS Soap for the next 6 months. We're getting SOC2 and HIPAA compliant, building out the marketing funnel, and a bunch more work. It's a lot, and I need to focus. But I don't want to abandon the community. So Patrick and Paul are stepping up to help lead calls. I'll be on about once every four weeks, and they'll rotate the other weeks. 📞 HOW CALLS WILL WORK These calls can run 2+ hours. I want to make sure we're respecting everyone's time. Especially those of you who actually show up. Here's the new structure: 👉 Reply to this post with your questions before the call 👉 If you submit a question and you're on the call, you go first 👉 We work through questions in the order they came in 👉 Then we open it up for everyone else If you can't make the call but want your question answered, drop it in the comments. We'll get to it. But priority goes to people who are there. The goal is simple: if you're taking the time to show up, you shouldn't have to wait behind questions from people who aren't even on the call. 🔗 NEW ZOOM LINK (save this) https://us06web.zoom.us/j/81995207847?pwd=Xe6u6LmIQOmCP5VTnOwWYjDBfZNKGB.1 📅 WHEN Tuesdays at 6PM ET (same as always) Looking forward to seeing you on the calls!

I just realized something about Cyber Monday: Most developers waste it on gadgets. But the smart move? Invest in the 4 pillars that actually grow your career as a developer. A few years ago, I was stuck at a government desk job where I couldn't get hired anywhere else no matter how many applications I sent. I was grinding LeetCode daily, launching startups on the side, and making less than minimum wage when I averaged it all out. Then AI dropped at the end of 2022, and I realized: this is the biggest wave of my lifetime. But my current approach wasn't working. So I did something different. I assessed myself across 4 pillars: Beliefs × Skills × Awareness × Monetization = Your Developer Impact My score: - Beliefs: 10/10 (I believed I could do it) - Skills: 6/10 (I could build, but had gaps) - Awareness: 1/10 (nobody knew who I was) - Monetization: 3/10 (only knew a few ways to make money) My score: 10 × 6 × 1 × 3 = 180 Here's what changed everything: Going from Skills 6→8 would take me from 180→240 (nice, but not life-changing) Going from Awareness 1→2 would take me from 180→360 (game-changer) So instead of buying gadgets this Cyber Monday, I invested in courses and books for ALL FOUR pillars. Result? More than doubled my income and went from zero opportunities to way more than I can keep up with. You can watch the full framework breakdown below! Here's what you'll learn: ✅ My Developer Impact Score assessment (do this yourself to find your bottleneck) ✅ Why awareness was my biggest bottleneck (probably yours too) ✅ The exact courses, books, and programs I bought for each pillar (NOT sponsored—these genuinely changed my life) ✅ How to maximize your chance of succeeding during the AI revolution ✅ The mindset shift from "take" to "give" that opened up all my opportunities Plus, I'm giving you my complete shopping list organized by the 4 pillars: PILLAR 1 - BELIEFS 📖 Millionaire Fastlane → https://a.co/d/cmJdbTZ

Hey guys! Brandon wanted me to throw this in here after talking about this on tonights call. If you are into Claude Code, IndieDevDan is an amazing AI Engineer YouTuber to follow. He had a video I wanted to break down with how i work and how he explained concepts as it can be confusing about how slash commands, mcp, agents, skills and memory work together, when to use them, etc. https://scottmichaelmedia.craft.me/claude_code_features
