What if I post on the internet, and the people who hate me see it, and they make fun of me, and everyone laughs, and I get cancelled, and I end up homeless and alone? Fear is part of us and it exists for a reason. It comes from embodied instinct, from ego protection, and from the culture around us. Its job is to stop us taking big risks, anything that could impact our status or security. Usually that looks like avoiding the unknown. The cost is that most of what we want, and most growth, sits on the other side of that fear. What to do The best way to work with fear isn't to get rid of it. It's to meet it and see what it's actually about. How to do it Get your journal out and write down all your fears about showing up on social media. At least 10 or 20. Take the one with the most emotional charge and elaborate on it. Follow it to its conclusion. What happens next? Then what? Then what? For example: everyone realises I'm a fraud, it spreads across the internet, it ruins my reputation, no one wants to work with me, and I end up destitute under a bridge. Once you've found the fear, feel into where it lives in the body. Meet it, breathe into it, accept that it's there. Then see it for what it is: a story. What's next Spend some time working through this, then share your experience in the comments.

So world builders, how has the week been? Let’s take notice of what’s shifted. What are some different perspectives you’ve picked up? What have you learned from your experiments? What’s going to be different moving forwards? Share below:

Volume Over Perfection. Why this matters There's a story in the book Art and Fear about a ceramics teacher who split his class in two. One half was told to produce one high quality piece. The other half was told to just produce as much work as possible. At the end of the semester, all the best work came from the volume group. What this means When we take the pressure off needing to be perfect or incredible, we get to just practice. We do the thing, we learn how to do it, and the more we make, the more likely we are to make something good. How to apply it The principle is simple: make something first. You can make it good later. Don't wait for the perfect idea or the perfect take. What's next That's the challenge here. Just make stuff and put it out there. It's allowed to be shit. It's allowed to be boring. Just get out there and make something.

Journal Prompts: Finding Your Wellspring Why this matters These four prompts are going to give you a wellspring to draw from. Real richness, real ideas, the stuff that ends up feeding your videos, your writing, your branding. This is how you tap into your creativity at a deeper level. Before you start, move your body. Dance, shake, hit the gym, whatever gets you online and connected. There's a playlist below and in the resources if you need inspiration. Then sit with each prompt, feel into it, and free associate. It doesn't need to make perfect sense. You're tapping into your unconscious to find out what's actually going on in there. The four prompts: 1. What's the thing you really want to see happen in this life? For me it's helping people who feel like outsiders, like the world wasn't built for them, find their power and make an impact. 2. Who do you care about and really want to help? I call mine autistic mystics: spiritual entrepreneurs, passionate creatives, quirky magical weirdos who want to make a difference. Probably people like you. 3. What's a big life challenge you've overcome? You don't need to talk about it in every piece of content, but knowing it will help you form your origin story. Usually our wounds are what lead us to our purpose. 4. What are your creative and aesthetic influences? The music, movies, books, fashion that shaped who you are, and how that flows forward into your brand and your world-building. Remember the story from the first video, the grandma's lounge room, knowing the exact colour of the cushions. If we're building a world, we want as much aesthetic richness as we can draw on, so that world actually reflects our uniqueness. What's next Move your body first. Then sit with these four prompts and free associate on each one. Don't edit yourself. Just see what comes up.

Hey folks, I'd love to see your Social Media accounts. The work you've done so far and the work that might be coming in the next weeks - also as an inspiration and push for myself. You can add your SM links in your Skool profile. Some of you did already, others didn't. Let's go!
