At our last Classifieds VIP call, I shared a win. My Kiva loan had entered the private lending stage, and I needed 30 lenders in 15 days to move into public funding. The group cheered me on, asked great questions, and then someone said: "Can you teach us how this works?" So I did. 😊 Today I finished a brand new Secret Podcast experience called Building with Kiva inside Income Without Burnout. For those who have never heard of Kiva, it's a nonprofit that helps entrepreneurs access 0% interest business loans. Before your loan goes public, you first need to demonstrate support from your own network through a private funding stage. Inside the classroom you'll find: 🎧 A 3 part Secret Podcast series 📖 A companion workbook 🔥 An interactive tool called Is Kiva Right for Me? 🚀 A step by step walkthrough of the process Want to check it out? Simply join Income Without Burnout and level up to Level 2 by earning 5 likes. Once you unlock Level 2, the entire experience is waiting for you. You can even start by trying the Is Kiva Right for Me? tool and see where you land. Thank you again to the VIP group and @Shannon Boyer for inspiring this training. Sometimes the best content comes directly from conversations inside the community. 💛

I'm really looking forward to our next meeting on Wednesday. Not only are there exciting wins to share, but there a 5 members who have collaboration opportunities to propose! It's going to be a good one! And if you are a new VIP member, watch out for a special DM from me in the coming days as we set our first onboarding meeting and get ready to bring you into the fold. I'm excited for the next quarter together!

I run the Shopify Growth Collective....a Shopify-focused community with a VIP level made up of product-based founders who are actively building, implementing, and investing in their stores. The audience is thoughtful, engaged, and focused on real results (not shiny tactics). I’ll be heading to the Skool IRL in Antarctica next month (WOOT!!), which means I’ll be dealing with unpredictable Wi-Fi and potentially inconsistent calls for most of February. Rather than pause momentum, I thought it would be fun to put together a Traffic Expert Takeover inside my Shopify community. February is already Traffic Month for us....and traffic isn’t my lane. I’m a Shopify UX / on-site conversion strategist, not a traffic expert, and I normally bring in outside specialists at this time of year anyway. This time, I’d love to open the doors to collaboration with other Skool community owners, creating space for traffic experts to step in, share their expertise with my audience, build trust, and expand their own visibility and community in the process, while keeping mine active and well supported while I’m away. What I am thinking... Each expert would host one 60-minute live session any time in February: - Either 60 minutes of live Q&A - Or 30 minutes education + 30 minutes Q&A - Focused on how your traffic lane applies to Shopify store owners It’s a great opportunity to: - Speak to a Shopify-specific audience - Practice teaching to founders who ask good questions - Build trust and visibility in a peer-led environment This is not a pitch fest... it’s collaboration, trust-building, and real value. Traffic lanes I’m looking for - UGC / creator systems - TikTok (organic, paid, or TikTok Shop... honest takes) - Live shopping / live selling - Meta ads (Shopify-smart) - Email marketing for product-based brands - Or if you are a expert in driving traffic to Shopify stores in some other way feel free to let me know wha tyou do. If this feels aligned...or if there’s another traffic lane you think would genuinely help Shopify founders... please comment. I’ll be curating this intentionally and keeping the group small.

@Lisa Drennon , wealth activator, of the Smell of Money is offering a masterclass you won't want to miss! It's on January 22, and you can check out the calendar for the time in your time zone and the Zoom link! *Because this group is public, you can share this event with anyone you think would find it valuable, whether they are a CLASSIFIEDS member or not! __________________________________________________ 💵 Calm Cash Flow Workshop 💵 If money feels loud, heavy, or constantly on your mind, this workshop gives you one thing most women are missing: a clear number you can spend each week without guilt. In this live workshop, you won’t budget, track every dollar, or “try harder.” Instead, you’ll set up a simple cash-flow structure that shows you: • exactly how much money is safe to spend right now • what’s already protected and accounted for • what your next money move is (so nothing floats in your head) You’ll leave with: ✔ one weekly spending number you trust ✔ one avoided money decision named and scheduled ✔ a calmer relationship with your bank account — immediately This isn’t about fixing everything. It’s about replacing money stress with clarity you can feel. Come get calm. The numbers will follow 🗝️🌬️💖💸
