What stands out about CLUES is that curiosity isn’t treated as a buzzword, but as a way of living. This isn’t a space for quick fixes or being told what to do. It gently helps you step off autopilot, ask better questions, and reconnect with what actually matters. The community stays active and engaging without pressure — if you’re away for a few days, you don’t return feeling behind or judged; you simply slot back in. I came across this community through Ruben Plasmeijer, who is genuinely one of those people who really cares. He notices people, reaches out, and creates a space that feels human and safe. That kind of care naturally attracts others who value curiosity, honesty, and reflection. I originally found Ruben through my friend Sean Hagerty, who also founded Men Forge Forward — a community in Skool I deeply respect for how it supports men in redefining masculinity away from the macho narrative. If you’re looking for a caring, stimulating group of people who value curiosity over certainty, meaning over noise, and presence over pressure, this is a quietly powerful place to be.
I came across the Social Selling Squad almost by accident, simply by following people I already trusted and got on well with. What stood out very quickly was how down to earth Sam Rathling is. Her journey is fascinating, but more than that, she’s incredibly generous with her time and advice. There’s no performance, no pressure; just honest guidance shared freely. What I’ve valued just as much is the community itself. I’ve met some genuinely impressive people here who are also warm, open, and willing to share what they’re learning. It feels like a space where conversations matter and growth happens naturally, not through hype. A really solid, human community that does what it says it will.
I am not entirely sure how I first found my way into ThriveLine Circle, but I am very glad I did. What stands out most is John’s way of showing up. He is driven, curious, and constantly learning. There is a restlessness there, but in the best sense. A refusal to stay static. That energy sets the tone for the whole community. One moment that really stayed with me was when John took the time to review my travel company website and sent me a detailed, thoughtful report on how I could improve it. I had not asked for this. It was simply offered, freely and constructively. That told me a lot about the culture he is building. The collaboration between John and Heather Boer is another real strength. They are very different people, and that difference works. There is balance, challenge, and a sense that each brings something the other does not. Together, they create a space that feels both energising and grounded. Spending a full hour with John and Heather recently was genuinely valuable. It was not performative or transactional. It was a space for learning, reflection, and growth. This feels like a community that is still evolving, but with a clear direction. I can easily see Trivoline Circle becoming the place people gravitate towards if they want to learn, collaborate, and grow alongside others rather than in isolation. I would recommend it to anyone who values generosity, curiosity, and meaningful connection.
