This week I realized something important. I was using the coaching group here on Skool almost like a dopamine hit—scrolling, reading, liking, and participating gave me the feeling that I was moving forward, but in reality I was tricking myself into thinking I was being more productive than I was. That’s not to say you shouldn’t be an active member in this group—it’s valuable to participate. But it’s also important to notice when you’re over-committing to learning mode without taking action. Learning and action work best in sequence: you learn, then you act, then you learn again. I had to discern within myself where I was in that cycle. Otherwise I risked falling into the trap of consuming someone else’s strategy, getting my hopes high, failing to implement, and crashing down again. I’m sure many of you can relate to that. So I stepped back and used the week to focus on the actual foundation of my business. Here’s what I got done: Transferred all of my group coaching material from Stan.store over to Skool Created the September lesson for my group Got really clear on my offer, my stack, and how I’m going to sell it Collected two new testimonials For the week ahead, my next actions are: Finish my About page Post an invitation for participants to join the case study at beta pricing under the new structure In my free community, structure the “Start Here” segment and refine the About page Continue showing up with consistent content It feels good to be shifting from seeking dopamine to building solid foundations. Grateful to be here

(I still need to circle back to do a proper intro, but the wisdom nuggets felt more exciting to start with.) 1. The number that actually matters : profit I’m shocked. While waiting at the doctor’s office, I saw a segment of the news covering this, essentially explaining what was a profit margin. I thought to myself: Do ppl have businesses and just wing it? Slightly mind-blown. 2. There’s an identity shift that happens at every level. ‘Less strategy, and more therapy.’ 3. Be resilient with the tool you're working with. Focus. 4. Get good at sales. It’s actually just about helping people… in advance for free. Generosity is king. 5. Leveraging AI as your community manager to take over actions, not replace your voice. => Something that feels edgy: Running ads. These emojis describes it perfectly: 😐🫣😳 And at the same time… the idea of saying goodbye to funnels and leveraging community for nurturing. This feels like some hidden illegal secret. => Personal thought: Re emotional pain not being something we can tangibly see or measure. Having personally (and supporte ppl who) struggle(d) with dysregulation, I would say that the before/after of cultivating inner peace can be equal if no more beneficial than fixing a broken arm. I can function with a sore arm. I couldn’t function with a sore nervous system... Food for thought! Liz

Takeaways > my thoughts - Have your aspirations printed and review day/night > desktop vision boards can be distracting - Don't underestimate your choice of environment > it sets the tone (a big work on ✌️) - Values anchor > & support efficient decision-making - they become a compass Hot take. I like affirmations - and I think they are useless if the gap between who you are now and what you are claiming in the affirmation is too big. How to fix it? Using I choose to believe... Here's an example: I feel confident. => I choose to feel confident. or even... I choose to explore feeling confident. It's a fun way to trick the brain, and stay in integrity with what feels true to you in that moment. Helpful to you? Fab! If not, shove it in the closet! Liz
