You did it. One year ago, you were experimenting. Posting when it felt aligned. Three posts some days. One post other days. Watching the comments roll in. Not huge numbers yet, but real humans. Real conversations. Real momentum. You trusted the vibe. You kept showing up inside Skool even when it was mostly you posting. You understood something important: engagement is built, not wished for. You modeled it. You responded. You stayed in the room. And now? Five thousand dollars a month in recurring revenue. Not from pressure. Not from hustle. From consistency. From clarity. From building in public. The community feels alive. Members are posting without being asked. They are sharing wins from their 12 Week Year. They are reporting execution scores. They are inviting friends. The WAM calls are full of energy and ownership. You are no longer wondering if this will work. You are refining what already works. You learned that growth did not come from chasing every platform. It came from deepening the one that aligned. You let YouTube support the classroom instead of trying to make it the destination. You focused on value inside Skool. And Skool rewarded you. Most importantly, it still feels calm. You did not burn out building this. You built it the way you teach. Simple. Intentional. Human. You wanted a $5K month. You built a movement instead. And it is only getting better. Keep going. It is a good day to have a good day.

and you are not engaging inside Skoolers and other Skool communities, you are missing out. I just checked my data. Last 30 days: 74 signups. 58 of them came from the Skool network. Not YouTube. Not ads. Not some complex funnel. Skool. This is the exact data I am now using to adjust my 12 Week Year. I originally thought I needed to grow YouTube to bring in new Skool members. That was the plan. Optimize thumbnails. Study retention. Push harder. It's been a brutal 8 weeks! But the numbers told a different story. I can add new members here, inside Skool, far more efficiently. I am in flow. It is working better than I expected. So now I see clearly: the time I was so worried about optimizing YouTube needs to be spent creating strong videos for my classroom. I can't wait for this section of my Skool to come alive! Those videos can still live on YouTube. But YouTube is not the end game. The classroom is. Community is. If you are on the Hobby plan like I am, that is okay. That is a financial decision. You do not need the highest tier to grow. You need time to collect data and clarity on what is actually working. Data removes emotion. Data sharpens focus. For me right now, Skool is the growth engine. Are you building where your numbers are pointing you?

Then this quick tip is for you. On a desktop/laptop, you can drag and drop your communities to reorder them. Not on mobile, but on your computer, it works beautifully. This is a total game-changer if you are constantly visiting many communities! Huge thank you to @Lise Lively for sharing this with me! Here’s the short clip if you want to see it in action: Raise your hand below, 👋, once you have rearranged yours. https://us06web.zoom.us/clips/share/mbkPaobtQreIVWMMkvJmwA This should strengthen your flow on Skool!

I know a lot of people are trying to grow on Skool, but not enough people are thinking about how to actually win with member transformation and monthly recurring revenue (MRR). Winning on Skool is not about having the biggest group. It is not about posting the most content. And it is definitely not about chasing members. Winning is about leadership. It is about culture. It is about building something that genuinely moves the needle for your members. I just shared a new video breaking down what winning on Skool really looks like and how to build momentum that actually lasts. If you are serious about building your Skool long term, I want you to watch this one. Here is the link: https://youtu.be/n91iZn4KuPc?views After you watch it, come back and tell me this: Are you building for attention, or are you building to win with 1. Transformation, both your own and your members’ 2. Monthly recurring revenue (MRR) Comment “WIN” if you are in this for the long game. It's a good day to have a good day!

I’ve always been a person who was interested in trying new things. People have always spoken about getting at 3 streams of income. My question was, “ok, how? Do I get 3 jobs? Or… do I create side hustles with skills I already have?” A 💡 went off!! Of course, capitalize off your talents. It’s a journey, but it’s fulfilling
