Iβm honestly blown away by how fast this community is growing.
Whatβs funny is I donβt even really care about the growth anymore. What I care about most is the connection inside the community. The conversations, the support, the friendships forming. That said, the growth clearly isnβt slowing down, and that tells me something important.
The best part is that the community is actually alive right now.
That means the people joining today are walking into a fun, engaged, welcoming space, way different than what it looked like at the very beginning. This group is less than three months old and weβre already at 350 members.
To put it in perspective
November, 115 new members
December, 141 new members
January, 101 new members so far and weβre only 15 days in
Iβm excited about the numbers, but Iβm way more excited about seeing my vision come to life. Watching real connections form and seeing people actually show up for each other has been the most rewarding part.
Iβve been trying to build this community for the past two years. It started as a meditation group on Facebook, then evolved into an inner work space hosted on Slack. I wasnβt fully happy with how that felt, so I made a decision to change directions. At the end of October 2025, I joined Skool and started the Stress Free Sobriety community with just five people who came over from my previous private group.
That evolution tells me Iβm on the right track π
Iβm sharing this here simply as a win. Not to brag, not to compare, just to celebrate a milestone that means a lot to me. Building community is not easy, and this one feels really special.
Grateful for the journey and excited for whatβs unfolding. ππβ¨
