Yesterday, I met up with Goose and Evelyn and a bunch of other Skoolers at the Oktoberfest. Before we hosted a mastermind in Munich to discuss highly engaged communities. We didn’t just cover the core 3 essentials of every community, but also the 3 most important traits for every community owner. In the video below, I synthesized everything into actionable tasks and included a 7th which helps you grow your community on autopilot. Next week we are going to cover how we got the star. Huge shoutout to @Sofiya Pierce again for coming up with the strategy. Add it to your calendar here. What do you think are the top 7 secrets? Find out by watching the video below.

You ever read something and go: “Wait… why is this kinda messing with me?” Yeah, drop that book. The reason can be anything – the plot, the characters, the setting, etc. Whatever made the book really stand out for you. Maybe someone else here felt the same. Or maybe you’ll put someone onto their next favorite. 👀 Share it below 👇

So, I recently binged all 12 books of He Who Fights With Monsters in the past 2 months after @Lukas Schmidt recommended it to me, and I have to say... It’s one of the wildest LitRPG/progression fantasy rides I’ve ever been on. Between Jason’s chaotic humor, the insane worldbuilding, and the surprisingly deep philosophy, I walked away with 3 key lessons. 1. Power Doesn’t Fix Your Problems—It Exposes Them Jason might be one of the most reluctant heroes I’ve ever read... Every time he levels up or gains a new ability, his inner demons, insecurities, and questionable choices rise right alongside. It’s a reminder that gaining strength (in life or in a LitRPG system) doesn’t magically solve everything, it just gives you new problems to wrestle with. This one hit deep. 2. Morality Is Messy One of the things I loved most is how the series constantly challenges the idea of “good guys vs. bad guys.” Jason is moral, but not nice. Villains sometimes make sense. Heroes sometimes make brutal choices. It really drove home the idea that growth means living in the gray areas and owning the consequences. This is something I don't think most of us consider very often anymore... 3. Humor is a Weapon (and a Shield) Jason’s sarcastic, self-aware humor is not just comic relief; it’s survival. He uses it to build friendships, defuse tension, and sometimes to cover up his own fear or pain. Honestly, it made me rethink how often we use humor in real life the same way, to protect ourselves while we figure things out. It's something I see as a trauma therapist with my clients as well, but this gave me a whole new view into my clients minds, and my own tbh. Has anyone else here binged the whole thing? What were your big takeaways?

Before Skool, I thought GIFs were pretty silly. And they were, but with Skool, I've realized that I like to be part of the fun. What's your favorite GIF and why?
