I needed a change of scenery to get this done so I went to a public library. I hope to record this video and have it posted by Friday. Thanks again for the faith and encouragement @Jaye Brunner @Dr. Saundra Stancil @Eddi Pinegar @Adam Tinkoff @Dajana K. @Ricardo Solomons @Cat PInegar

Sometimes our steps forward look like pivoting in place and looking in a different direction, others look like sticking your toe in to the unknown and hoping for the best! Yesterday, I stuck my toe in, well maybe I actually jumped it the deep end! Because of @Alexa Saarenoja example, teaching and the community she has built here on the Skool platform, I decided to take a step in her shadow and do the same! For everyone who has done the 30 Breakthrough Challenge you know the end goal for some is to develop community around our channels. Which Alexa has done a fabulous job at. The micro community within the Creator Boost Tribe @Dr. Saundra Stancil @Jenny Sharratt @Eddi Pinegar @Adam Tinkoff @Ricardo Solomons @Casey Hamlin @Cat PInegar, you know the value of reaching out here and getting support from each other. HUGE! PRICELESS! thank you so much for joining me on this journey! We are all just at the beginning, I am so stoked on watching each of us grow where we are planted. 30 days of this challenge is changing us all, I am grateful to be part of your grow process. I you care to check out Just Living Truth Tribe you can check it out here. You will find I am following Alexa's format from here, to set it up. I am a long way from being where I want to be, but we all know, you have to take the first step someday. Yesterday was step number one for me! 💖 you all spark my heart!

Today was a good one. Day 27 really got me thinking about something I haven’t paid enough attention to yet… the people on the other side of the screen. when I recieve a comment, I’d usually just say “thanks” and move on. Not because I didn’t care, just because I didn’t really see it as part of the process yet. But these last few lessons shifted that. This isn’t just about posting videos… it’s about building connection. Actually talking with people. Asking questions. Letting them be part of what we’re creating instead of just watching it. And the timing of this lesson couldn’t have been better… Today was also our first live event — an hour-long meditation. And it went really well. There’s something different about being live. It’s not just content anymore… it feels like practice, like real people showing up together in the moment. I’m starting to see… this isn’t just a YouTube channel. This can actually become a space where people show up, practice, ask questions, and grow together. Still very early. Not a ton of comments yet.But I can see how doing this right from the beginning could change everything. So moving forward, I’m going to be a lot more intentional: Not just replying… but connecting. Not just posting… but inviting people in. Thanks for reading guys. @Cat PInegar @Dr. Saundra Stancil @Jenny Sharratt @Jaye Brunner @Dajana K. https://www.youtube.com/live/iPTAq1gSXF0?si=6ktmwOSUicS8teL0 Here is a link to the event 60 min meditation. starts off funny cuz I've never done this before lol. every morning at 5am Texas time.

Days 3–5 were pretty simple on my end. I moved through the lessons, read everything carefully, and double checked that what I had already put together still felt aligned. Day 6 was a different experience. It asked for a level of clarity that you don’t always realize you’re missing until you’re actually asked to articulate it. What felt clear in my head needed more refinement when I put it into words. I’m really grateful for that part of the process, because now everything feels much more solid. I can see how it all fits together in a way that feels clear and steady. @Eddi Pinegar @Dr. Saundra Stancil @Jenny Sharratt @Dajana K. @Jaye Brunner

What a journey this is! My first two years, no shorts. Trying to get back in the game in September of 2025 I started doing "Walk and Talk" Shorts. I did 14 Sept - Nov. I did this challenge in December of 2025, since then I have posted 53. In late February, I felt the shorts were screwing up my analytics, so I unlisted 19 scheduled for March 😂🤣. So here I am in March with Alexa's voice in my head saying, "Even a few views on shorts is EXPOSURE!" My biggest takeaway today, I need to SLOW down and take serious developing my skills in word smithing good scripts. Shorts are the perfect place to start, a lesson from @Adam Tinkoff, who does fabulous shorts on his channel! Questions I have still lingering in my head, 1. What is a good description to write with shorts and 2. When is the best time to post them? I think Alexa said mornings and early evenings. I did write, film, and edit a short today, it's attached. Let me know what you think. I will be posting my shorts on Sunday Evenings and Tuesday Mornings. My long videos go out on Thursday evenings. I did film to other videos to batch today, I didn't write the script, I had help from AI. With all that, I am back in the short business on my channel! Exposure is key if you want to grow.
