Hi everyone, Feels like a small Win but lots of 😵‍💫. After 8 months of building and overcomplicating the heck out of my setup… I stripped it back to what actually feels clear and aligned (for now). ✅ Simplified my classroom ✅ Moved the community back to free ✅ Locked in my lead gen flow (finally) ✅ Even created a free mini-course to share what’s working Posting this here in case anyone else is in the messy middle and needs permission to reset. Breakdown to follow. ——— It’s been 8 months since I joined Skool. Crazy. Some of you have been here just as long (or longer), and it’s been so cool to watch how much has changed—for all of us. I’ve loved seeing what you’ve tested, launched, rebuilt, and refined in your own communities. There’s something really motivating about watching people stay in it, even through the pivots. I was reminded recently of Hormozi’s Rule of 20%—that any big change will likely cost you 20% upfront (in time, money, or momentum). But if it’s aligned? Worth it. So, away I go with a few changes. Here’s where I’m at now, in case it’s helpful: I’ve decided to move my community back to free (yep—started as free > moved to paid > now back to free. More on that below). I also simplified the classroom (again) because—true story—I love building systems and sometimes overcomplicate things just for fun. 😂 But this time, I’m really leaning into simple and accessible. I’ve decided to focus on just one platform for lead gen—Instagram—because it’s easy to automate and feels the most sustainable right now. (Still not touching Facebook. Long story. Still unresolved.) I’ve also got a system now to turn content into longform YouTube videos within the community. (2 birds with 1 stone here so saving me time!) And because I still love backend systems and automation, I added a free course inside the community for anyone else who geeks out on that stuff too. ——— Somewhere along the way, I managed to “Frankenstein” my funnel by trying (and failing) to merge two different coaches’ models. 🤦🏻‍♀️ It so did not work. But I had a great laugh about it.

Not out loud, at least. But they’re there. Quiet. Heavy. The kind that don’t just block a launch. They mess with your whole momentum. Here’s what I see: => “What if this still doesn’t work?” You’ve tried. Learned the frameworks. Tweaked the niche. Still… it doesn’t click. => “What if I’m too late?” Everyone else looks polished. Branded. Ahead. You wonder if you missed your shot. => “What if I’m not good enough?” You know you’re skilled. But for some reason, the message doesn’t land. And it starts eating at you. => “What if no one buys?” Not just the money. The shame. The failure. The feeling that what you do doesn’t matter. => “What if I have to go back to that job I hate?” The job. The boss. The burnout. The life you promised yourself you’d never return to. => “What if I waste months building something no one wants?” Again. => “What if I’m just not cut out for this?” And I find out too late. If any of these hit, you’re not broken. You’re not behind. You're just building in the fog. And you’re closer than you think.
