Hey Team, Thank you to everyone who joined me on this journey to build a thriving community. Your presence, energy, and engagement have meant a lot. As many of you know, maintaining this platform comes at a monthly cost, and while we made meaningful strides, we weren’t able to grow the group to a level that makes it sustainable long-term. With that in mind, I’ve made the difficult decision to close down the group. That said, this is by no means goodbye. You can always connect with me over on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ronnewcomb/, and continue learning and growing through The Indie Coach Podcast on YouTube: Podcast Playlist. I'm cheering you on and look forward to seeing what you create next. All the best, Ron

Anything confusing or missing? https://forms.gle/oMHE1XzGNWSKrhjc6 Your insight means a lot. Appreciate you! 🙌 PS. feel free to go through it yourself! :)
