New Here ๐Ÿ• Hi I'm Lane
- ๐Ÿฆ„ Favorite color? I am like a mood ring - changes with the temperature. - ๐ŸŒˆ Favorite Pokemon? Eevee because I am old and only know Gen 1 Pokemon. - ๐Ÿ› Ur current skool challenge? Skool as a platform isn't so much the challenge more like figuring out positioning within the space and getting all my filming done for my upcoming launch. This might help someone https://pokemondb.net/pokedex/national

This Community Mattered More Than I Expected ๐Ÿ’•
I found Skool, and not long after that, I lost my best friend. Itโ€™s been the hardest loss Iโ€™ve ever had to face. The kind that quietly shifts everything โ€” how you think, how you move through the day, how you relate to the world. I actually found Skool through a Goosify advert โ€” @Goose Dunlavey was the first person I saw talking about it. I didnโ€™t know it at the time, but that moment ended up being a small turning point in a much heavier chapter of my life. I didnโ€™t come here looking for support. But in the middle of grief, Skool, this space โ€” and the wider Goosify community around it โ€” became something steady. Honest conversations, real people, learning that continued even when life felt paused. So this post is simply a thank you. To Skool, to Goosify (and for letting me back in when accidentally getting myself banned ๐Ÿ˜…), and to the people who show up here as themselves. Youโ€™ve helped me keep moving through a chapter I never chose. Iโ€™m genuinely grateful I found this place when I did. @Dylan Johnson @Benjamin Ross @Clayton Dosier @Angelika Vetter

๐Ÿ“ Blame me for wingman
FIRST- a reminder: Wingman will be back online Friday morning! ull see a lot of bugs and breaks until then. and you can blame me for that one, the dev team gave me two options: 1. roll out steady (no breaks) and updates land end of feb 2. roll out fast (with breaks) and updates land in jan I opted for 2 for 2 reasons 1. i have 1 month off from the world tour + so im workin on this myself every day 2. i figured with ur help and feedback, we could get everything realigned fast January is gonna be a BIG month. and if u can be patient w me, youll have: not only some new really powerful tools for ur community at ur fingertips, but also an app for ur phone and ipad, (so you dont need to just use a lappy anymore.) but also a WHOLE series of videos that i will make myself showing you exactly how to use every piece. its a new tool, but i think when its done ull be surprised how simple it is for how much it does :) so please give me ur feedback- good and bad hope that makes sense!! im just sooper duper excited!

Progress Report (aka: the fun part is officially happening)
Quick check-in on my Skool community theme refresh I mentioned in my last post. Iโ€™ve started implementing it and surprisingly, itโ€™s been fun. So far Iโ€™ve: ๐Ÿ’ฅ added a new cover image and icon ๐Ÿ’ฅ tweaked my welcome video to include the new cover image ๐Ÿ’ฅ created and added a brand new thumbnail to the Start Here classroom ๐Ÿ’ฅ written and shared the why story behind why I chose my theme ๐Ÿ’ฅ outlined a program that will be offered in a paid tier of my membership Luckily I'm not doing the creating and implementing alone... ๐Ÿ’ซ๐Ÿ’ซ As I shared before, @Sam Greiner has helped me a ton with planning and the how-toโ€™s. ๐Ÿ’ซ๐Ÿ’ซ Now that Iโ€™m in the adjusting-and-implementing phase, my bestie has stepped in. Heโ€™s brainstorming and implementing everything with me, keeping me on track (which is no small feat, I promise! ๐Ÿ˜‚), and constantly reminding me that done is better than perfect! I've still got quite a ways to go, but I can see parts of my community rebuild taking shape and it's finally in a way that actually reflects who I am. ๐Ÿฅณ ๐Ÿฅณ ๐Ÿฅณ Note: this post is one way I'm helping myself stay accountable.

Blitz... I just knew Blitzball... until now! (extra points if you get the reference)
This is my first blitz, a little late to the party but excited to be here. Massive shoutout to @Jen Ritchie for the inspiration to get cracking on the blitz action! So excited to partner up with a massive gangster! So a bit about how i got here Ive been invested all in on my dreams for going on two decades now, but the form and shape has changed and evolved through the years. Currently working in an audio video studio that ive worked at for the last decade. I joined skool when it was 99 a month only and sat on my butt with it dreading and contemplating my course and what my offer would be yadada. and honestly never really even used it out of sheer intimidation. After seeing 2 ads in particular, 1 being gooses jumping in the pool where he talks about being yourself (i forget the exact wording) but the message i got from it was "that business stuff is great but you don't have to be stuffy and perfected in order to build a community" and that really stuck out to me, 2. I forget the creator but basically they were talking about my exact situation, "well i waited to join because i wanted to make my perfect course" then the other guy guys "you're an idiot" and says let me teach you how to just get started right now. Those 2 motivated me to jump on skool and make it a regular thing. Even if i had no idea where to start, i just started. And the beautiful thing is the rest worked itself out. So instead of just paying for it every month and doing nothing, i jumped on and started my group and invited a few of my local clients to join. I was doing my thing in our community for a little while, we've had communities for my business and related groups before, so we sort of had a flow to it. I wish i could remember what gave me the idea for anchor content, basically something longform you do every month. But we decided that a "listening to your music live" would be a great monthly community event. Since a majaority of our creators are artists this is a great way for everyone to get involved and so far has been a lot of fun.
