Okayโ€ฆ first of allโ€ฆ this thread was absolute๐Ÿ”ฅagain with over 470 comments! The level of support, honesty, and actual thought that went into your feedback was next-level. This turned into a full-on growth lab! ๐Ÿ† ๐—š๐—ฅ๐—”๐—ก๐—— ๐—ฃ๐—ฅ๐—œ๐—ญ๐—˜ ๐—ช๐—œ๐—ก๐—ก๐—˜๐—ฅ โ€” ๐—ง๐—›๐—˜ ๐—ฆ๐—ฃ๐—ข๐—ง๐—Ÿ๐—œ๐—š๐—›๐—ง ๐—•๐—จ๐—ก๐——๐—Ÿ๐—˜ @AnneMarie Kovach! This was a close call ... so why @AnneMarie Kovach? She didnโ€™t just drop quick reactionsโ€ฆShe gave clear, actionable, thoughtful feedback that actually helped people improve. She was asking deeper questions that made people refine their message, offering specific tweaks (not just โ€œthis is goodโ€) and helping others see what wasnโ€™t obvious yet. That is exactly where the magic is in this game! ๐ŸŽ ๐—ช๐—ต๐—ฎ๐˜ ๐˜€๐—ต๐—ฒ ๐˜„๐—ถ๐—ป๐˜€: ๐—ง๐—ต๐—ฒ ๐—ฆ๐—ฝ๐—ผ๐˜๐—น๐—ถ๐—ด๐—ต๐˜ ๐—Ÿ๐—ฎ๐—ฏ ๐—•๐˜‚๐—ป๐—ฑ๐—น๐—ฒ - 30-minute creative call โ˜Ž๏ธ - 24-hour pinned post ๐Ÿ“Œ - 3 additional pins to keep that momentum rolling ๐Ÿš€ ๐ŸŽฒ ๐—ฃ๐—”๐—ฅ๐—ง๐—œ๐—–๐—œ๐—ฃ๐—”๐—ง๐—œ๐—ข๐—ก ๐—ช๐—œ๐—ก๐—ก๐—˜๐—ฅ๐—ฆ And now for our random drawโ€ฆ we are picking two winners! @Angela Wills & @Laura Lou ๐ŸŽ‰ ๐—ฌ๐—ผ๐˜‚ ๐—ฒ๐—ฎ๐—ฐ๐—ต ๐—ด๐—ฒ๐˜ ๐—ฎ ๐Ÿฎ๐Ÿฐ-๐—ต๐—ผ๐˜‚๐—ฟ ๐—ฝ๐—ถ๐—ป๐—ป๐—ฒ๐—ฑ ๐—ฝ๐—ผ๐˜€๐˜ ๐Ÿ“Œ โค๏ธ BUT HEREโ€™S THE REAL MAGIC BEHIND RED LIGHT GREEN LIGHT GAMEโ€ฆ The real winners are every single one of you who showed up.

Woohoo, well done @AnneMarie Kovach ! ๐Ÿ˜
I'm sailing!
Life is an adventure and I get to be on one but the internet has not been cooperating. I've been quite paranoid about loosing my ๐Ÿ”ฅ as I'm on a different time zone and my connections have been sporadic. I have been diligent about posting but still fear: "did I hit my number" I believe this is the drive, the motivation that keeps me focused on my mission. I'm off to dinner but wanted to share the experience of "panic" when we focus on what needs to be done and forget about the importance of why we are doing something. Skool is great for tracking numbers and milestones but it doesn't show us what we personally have accomplished. Yes, the ๐Ÿ”ฅ is wonderful but it doesn't track how we truly show up in our communities, for our people. So I guess I want to share my thoughts...you are building something beautiful. Focus on HOW you are serving. WHY you are serving. That is what matters.
I'm sailing!

That's a good point about the ๐Ÿ”ฅ. It's a lovely little status symbol that shows that we turn up and are there for our people. But it shouldn't become a prison or a something that disturbs your peace. (Note to self: suggest to school team that they allow us four weeks a year holiday from the fire, activate holiday mode to retain it) ๐Ÿค” Personally, I don't really know how much other people notice it care about the icons next to our names as long as we are doing the things and providing the value that we promised. Everyone has and needs holidays! Most normal working people rarely if ever are expected to check into their work when they're on holiday. We are just lucky that our work isn't work and that we want to do what we do for our people! ๐Ÿฅฐ I hope you have a wonderful dinner. ๐Ÿ˜‹

What I wish someone had taught me...
Nobody taught you this about money and itโ€™s costing you I asked a simple question inside my community: โ€œWhat do you wish someone had taught you about money?โ€ Almost every answer said the same thingโ€ฆ ๐Ÿ‘‰ โ€œI wish I knew it was easy to make money.โ€ Read that again. Not โ€œI donโ€™t have opportunities.โ€ Not โ€œI donโ€™t have skills.โ€ Just โ€œI believe itโ€™s hard.โ€ That belief will quietly control: โ€ข how much you charge โ€ข how often you hesitate โ€ข how long you stay stuck โ€ข how much money you actually allow yourself to keep Because if money feels hard, youโ€™ll make it hard. Money itself isnโ€™t hard. Confusion is hard. Avoidance is hard. Not having a system is hard. Structure makes money simple. So now Iโ€™m curiousโ€ฆ ๐Ÿ‘‰ Do you believe making money is EASY or HARD? And tell me WHY. I want to read every single answer and share it on my podcast (and if you permit me to use your name, I'll mention your community and link it in the show notes). Who wants free PR on the iDateMoneyยฎ Podcast that is in the top 2.5% of global listeners?

My answer may surprise you.. REALLY HARD! Especially when you've grown up with the whole world telling you to 'get a job' where 80% of those will just give you enough money to pay the bills, and not have much left. But then everything is really hard until it's not, like I couldn't spin a hula hoop around my waist until last year. But now Ive learnt how to do it. It's easy and I can spin multiple hoops for ages if I want to. (If you're wondering why I do this, It's because I have a 9-year-old daughter that makes me!) Say my answer is: HARD, until it's not, then it's EASY.

I love the picture. It's like a "what happens next"? Are you still there?
Who doesnโ€™t love early access? ๐Ÿ˜
Itโ€™s basically a backstage passโ€ฆ the kind where you get to peek behind the curtain, grab the good stuff first, and maybe even snag a few things before the crowd rushes in.
