Young Jack
So for a 59 year old lady that has a niche of Bakeries, why on earth would I have clicked on a community with a young man with a cap and a community called Skoolyard. Well I am a mother of two boys (men now) 24 and 28, and I thought why not check this out. Immediately I saw value, in a weird kind of way, I cant explain and to be honest I still cant, but I have enjoyed being a part, have learnt an absolute tonne inside about this skool platform, and had some fun along the way as well. I don't always fit, but sometimes I do fit and I love it.

Engaging, Supportive, and so darn Helpful
Heather runs one of the most engaging communities I’ve found. The information and resources she creates for business owners are sharp, practical, and genuinely useful. I’m sure almost anyone could find something inside her community that helps them get ahead. But what matters most is that Heather actually commits herself to helping people get seen and increase their visibility. She showed me so much kindness and offered help wherever she could while I prepared for one of her Premium Spotlight events. And before I’d even finished setting everything up, I was already looking forward to scheduling my next one.♥︎ Highly recommend Heather, her community, and the Premium Spotlight experience.

What you put in you truly get back.
What you put in you truly get back. It seems like everyone authentically gets involved and it seems to be ever growing. I keep approaching this community as someone learning as opposed to someone teaching (and/or educating) but as I level up in this space, I'm starting to get a tad more comfortable with being myself here. Thank you, Heather, for what you are doing with this community and platform! 💚💚💚
