So good @Brenda Rigney! You're my twin... we do things very similarly. I use Pomodoro and but also if I'm really in the zone and super productive I will allow myself to go for a few hours. Soemtimes it's a stream of consciousness sometimes and I can bust out 6-8 hours worth of work in 2. And, even though I'm 51, I'm still very much in Mom zone with my 4th and 7th graders so if I can maximize my time I take advantage it. I used to be a graph paper girl but now its journals and notebooks. I have 3-4 on the go at all times next to me. I love your family history too! What a legacy to come from.

Even though I liked the idea of private in the past, I have largely kept mine public. Now even more incentive to do so.

I like the idea of a simple intro to the group instead of multiple questions. Much less of a barrier- great tip!! I also heard someone on a call today with another Skool group I'm in say that they've seen lots of good engagement when the new member posts a video answering the question(s) and introducing themselves. This is more friction than a quick question like "where are you from" but also lets the group get a better feel for who you are which is cool.

@June Gilbert Collins I'm taking my 2+ decades as a microbiologist, functional medicine doctor, and research and tech consultant, combined with mental, emotional, and spiritual healing to support 40+ women ready to target resistance, flip the switch on self-doubt, and lead with clarity in business and life. The end goal is to align your internal state and external impact. Since I've walked it myself and helped so many women through the stages and transitions of midlife, I wanted to create a community where business, especially AI, and life are addressed together because they aren't separate. It's a holistic view, just like my practice. See my comment to Kimberly below for some context ;)

@Kimberly Armatys Exactly. Metrics are the only way to see what's working and what's not. In my practice that is what labs and surveys/questionnaires were for. In business, I like my trackers and spreadsheets.

@Reinet Doig Thanks!! I appreciate the cheers!! 🙏🏼💖

@Sarah Crosley Thanks, Sarah! 🙌🏼
