One thing I really appreciated in Evelyn’s trainings is...
She didn’t just teach the strategy. She actually did it alongside us. That hit me more than any framework or tactic.
Watching someone build in real time, making decisions, adjusting, sometimes scrapping things, it just feels way different than being handed a polished playbook after the fact.
It made the learning feel grounded. Less “here’s the theory,” more “here’s what this looks like when it’s messy.”
That’s something I will be trying in my own community. Instead of teaching from a finished outcome, I am going to write and publish a book in public with the people who are learning, start to finish, same constraints, same process.
Not because it’s cleaner… but because it’s more honest.
Curious how others think about this. Do you learn better when someone teaches after they’ve finished, or while they’re in it? As a community owner, have you tried building alongside your members? What’s worked (or not worked) when you’ve done that?
Would love to hear different takes on this.
