I want to be real with you, because you deserve that. Over the past couple of weeks I've had moments where I was really, really down emotionally, moments that even scared me a little. I've realised that working alone in my flat, building this online business for the past year and a half, has been slowly burning me out. I don't want to end up destroying myself, so I'm listening to what my body and mind are telling me: I need simplicity, stability, and something that genuinely feels aligned, without so much weight on my shoulders. There's also something I want to be honest about. The image I've been holding: in front of my partner, my parents, my friends, and even in front of you... of someone pushing hard to build something online, has become really difficult to carry. I think I just need to let that go and choose something more real for where I actually am right now. So I've made the decision to step away from Aligned Creators and from the online business world altogether. I know I promised a 30-day outreach challenge starting this week. I'm sorry, that won't be happening. I didn't want to just disappear without explanation, which is why I'm telling you directly. What I can leave you with: everything I know about getting your first paying clients is already in the classroom. The videos are gone, but the full written process is there: the exact method I used with my own clients, who paid me for it. The scripts, the steps, everything. If you do the outreach as it's laid out, it works. The community will stay open until June 3rd so you have time to go through anything you want to keep. Now, the part I really mean. Thank you. Genuinely. - To my activity allies: @Amanda Smith @Nicholas Lee @Suzzie Woods @Lidia Axe @Sabine Hope - To everyone who showed up, commented, contributed, and made this feel like a real place, you made this worth doing. - To the clients I had the privilege of working with: @Mat Edwards @Wendy Prager @Edith Calls @Logan Smith @Dovydas Zemeninkas @Branco De Souza

I've been reading everything you shared and I want to try something together 👇 I keep seeing two extremes in online business, and neither feels quite right. The scalable membership: fully aligned, but it can take forever to generate real income. The high-ticket hustle: fast results, but it slowly drains the life out of why you started. I've been on both paths. I made my first $3,000 on Skool in <2 hours a day, and I also burned out and walked away from the format. So I've been asking myself: what's the middle path? Fast enough to stay motivated. Aligned enough to keep going. I think I've found it, and I want to test it with you. 30 days. One goal: your first paying member. I'll be doing it alongside you, not above you. If I get 3 people saying yes by Sunday, we start next week. Drop a 🙋 if you're in, or just tell me honestly what you think. ❤️❤️ thanks for being here xxxxx

I've spent weeks overthinking my strategy. Posting everywhere, trying everything, measuring myself against frameworks that weren't mine. This week I stopped. And I just looked at the data: not other people's data, my own. Here's what I found: 1. I've been on the wrong platform for a year. After 12 months of consistent posting on Instagram, I realised I was never getting the right people engaging with my content. Not because I wasn't trying hard enough — but because the people who follow me there are mostly people who know me personally. They engage with my cats and my dinners. Not my business content. So I made a decision: Instagram is my personal journal now. TikTok is where I'm building. And honestly...The relief I felt when I gave myself permission to stop forcing Instagram was enormous. 2. My best YouTube videos are the ones where I'm not trying. I went back through my analytics and noticed a clear pattern. The videos that got the most CTR and retention were never the ones where I sat down with a script and tried to teach something. They were the ones where I just... talked. Like a friend. Like I was processing something out loud. So that's what I'm leaning into. No more educator mode. Just me, a camera, and whatever's actually on my mind. 3. My positioning was in my head, not in my members' words. I spent an afternoon reading through every DM, every comment, every "Start Here" post reply from my community members. And the pattern was so clear once I stopped assuming I knew what they needed. They're not lost about their purpose. They know what they want to offer. They just can't get anyone to pay them for it yet. One member said it perfectly: "I know I am great at what I do. I just can't get clients." That one sentence rewrote my entire about page. Sometimes alignment isn't a feeling. It's what happens when you stop ignoring what's already in front of you. Where are you at this week? What's one thing you've been ignoring that might actually be trying to tell you something? 🧡

Here's what my daily routine looks like right now: → Showing up in Skool every day (here + my accountability partners' community) → Posting a TikTok video every single day → Publishing a YouTube video every week It's simple, it's not perfect, but it's consistent!! and that consistency is what's slowly moving things forward for me. 💌 I'd love for us to do something together as a community. A challenge where we all commit to one daily action and hold each other accountable. But before I design anything, I want to ask you: 👉 What's one action you're trying to take consistently right now, or wish you were? Drop it in the comments. I'll read every reply and build the challenge around what actually matters to you. 🥰🥰

Hey friends!! How’s your Wednesday going? I thought I’d let you know that I just started showing up on TikTok, come follow me over there if you want to see the journey in real time. ❤️❤️ I’ll also be going live soon https://www.tiktok.com/@larabruyelles?_r=1&_t=ZN-94sBnenHmw2 I’ve been posting for over a year on IG and never really had success with it, I think TikTok will work much better, from the first couple videos I posted 🤩🤩 I wanted to go live yesterday, but need 50 followers and only have 25 so far, so a follow would mean the world to me ❤️❤️ Which socials are you posting on?
