I woke up this morning and knew that today was the day to kick off preparation for our first 30-Day cycle of the Substack Success Habit Challenge. You know the Atomic Habits ‘stacking’ concept, right? Where you build the habits you want to form by adding them on top of another habit you already do each day? Well, this experience is inspired by that concept, with a plot twist: I’ve built this for the gifted, Feral Ferrari brains you and me were given, as Fractal Goddesses. So, we’re not just going to plop a bunch of rote, boring chores on top of your morning coffee, because you’ll just never sustain that. (I wouldn’t, either.) And I”m not going to tell you to 'batch a bunch of cONteNt' 🫠 or leap to posting an article a week, because this ain’t my first ride at the rodeo and I’m not going to participate in flipping your learned avoidance switch on. This is not going to be a pile of AI prompts, because I want you to feel into how your Subtack can be the proverbial room of your own — a conduit for the life force energy you lock into when you’re in your Zone of Obsession — and I don’t want you to give that energy, or your own agency, to the Hydra of the Capitalarchy. And this unfolds over a series of 30-day cycles, so it can be JOYFUL. I want your nervous system to downregulate and your identity to upregulate in a way that makes your Substack Mothership a delightful ass gift to yourself — not just when it’s done, all along the way! We ARE going to make this beautiful, meaningful and sacred — more ritual than habit, when you come down to it. So here’s how it will go down: The Substack Success Habit Stack Challenge will take place in 4, 30-day cycles that are cumulative and sequential, meaning they will build on each other and snowball into your thriving Substack body of work, all in Divine Order.

For a couple of days, I've been thinking about @Lindsay LaShell's question about what we need to be doing on Substack each day, and how to best transmit this to you as less of a task list and more of a DELECTABLE INVITATION TO IMMERSE YOURSELF AND BE NOURISHED by a ritual of interacting with other deep thinkers, thinking, writing, speaking and transmitting in public. At a high level, my personal Substack Success Daily Ritual includes: — Writing some Prolific Paid Priestess identity affirmations out 20x in the am and 20x before bed (sounds cornball af but it has actually kickstarted a glorious domino effect of congruence, expansion and attraction — and sometimes you need that at the beginning of this sort of an upgrade) — Posting 3 Notes per day — Reading 2-3 other Substackers' articles per day — Restacking your own or others' content 2-3 times per day — Perusing, liking and commenting on other Substackers' Notes Doing this in ways that grow your voice, audience and income is a ~30-45 minute per day situation, once you get acclimated to the culture. Note that I haven't mentioned cross-posting on other platforms because it can absolutely be helpful and synergistic, but it's also a layer of complexity that is absolutely not necessary for most of us if we get laser focused and strategic on Substack. I'm thinking about creating a 30 Days of Substack Success Daily Ritual Classroom here in the Studio, where every day I drop a very specific Substack Success Daily Ritual protocol I want you to follow that day, including your affirmation and Notes prompt for each day. Thinking we can start on Monday, but first, tell me — do you want that? @Lindsay LaShell @Dr. Evelyn Young Spath @Nupur G @Tracy Boyce @Nic Frick @Emily Souza Obrigadissima e beijinhos,

Welcome. Beautiful. I'm so glad you're here as a Founding Member. The Substack Studio is a space for gifted, neurocomplex women over 40 on the journey from paralyzed to prolific — building a body of work that gets your most inspired ideas out of the Good Idea Graveyard and onto a real platform that attracts golden opportunities, collaborations and projects as deep as you are. Please keep in mind that our official public launch is in June. I decided to roll this out with minimum delay because Uranus (revolution) has just moved into Gemini (writing, communication, self-expression) and I want us to take maximum advantage of these Universal forces. The wind is now at our backs. So now you get Founding Member benefits — including lifetime Founding Member pricing, early access to the beta Self-Centered Business OS and individual attention from me — while also giving me feedback that will shape the final version we launch publicly. (For this, I thank you in advance. 🙏🏾) 👉🏾 Step 1: Watch the welcome video below. 👉🏾 Step 2: Check out the Classroom. You'll find the Write Fire 🔥 Substack Launch Challenge, the Inner Critic Cure (we're loading it now!), branding templates, and (eventually) everything you need to start, grow and write your own bold, beautiful Substack. 👉🏾 Step 3: Jump into the community and introduce yourself in the comments below. Read what other A-List women are sharing. Comment, connect, build each other up. Tell us: - Your name - Where you're writing from - The body of work that's been sitting in your Good Idea Graveyard waiting for its moment I'll go first: I'm Tara-Nicholle Kirke. I write from Carvoeira, Portugal — a small village by the sea where every house is painted white and blue in honor of the Goddess of the Blue Sea (Yemaya). The body of work I'm finally building is how the Goddess is now returning to her throne, in the form of every single woman like us. The Substack Studio is where my body of work for other Creatress Women lives now. And so do you.
