Woo hoo! I finally reached 100 members ๐
Woo hoo! I finally reached 100 members ๐ Big thanks to @Lidia Axe and her 30-Day Skool Hackathon. One thing Lidia really helped me with was getting out of my own head. I tend to overthink a lot when it comes to my community, but she always gave me clear, actionable steps to focus on instead of trying to figure everything out at once. Looking back, I honestly think it was her guidance, feedback and the little tweaks along the way that helped me reach 100+ members today. Thanks again, Lidia ๐

Lidia really goes above and beyond!
Lidia really goes above and beyond! She constantly has new ideas for engagement in this group, and to put into yours, and is really generous with her time and expertise for a free group! I'm in her paid group too, and would recommend them both to someone starting out and scaling on skool!

Trust is a key word
The biggest thing I love about this group is that it's James' group. And I've known James for many months now as a coincidental member in my community. And over those many months, I've known James to always show up, to always be active, and to always be here, asking questions. And having recently joined James' group, and starting my dream of writing a script, which I've never even considered (James confidence inspires me). I know that I'm in the right place and in the right hands. And I have full and complete faith in James and his ability to not only write fantastic scripts. But also to show-up as a coach that can help anybody get to the next level. Even someone like me that has never written more than a few haiku's. I just cant understand why this group is free, but while it is - jump in, the water is warm, the palm trees singing in the island breeze and the gentle waves lap these shores, while we sip margaritas in cozy hammocks, imagining what might one day be....in a script.
