Hi founders 🤍 Quick reminder that Q&A is tonight at 7:00pm EST. I’m really looking forward to connecting and hearing where you’re at. I also want to name something I’m seeing a lot right now, especially from folks aiming for August or Fall openings. Many of you are so close, but self-doubt, overwhelm, or the weight of everything happening in the world is slowing things down. That doesn’t mean you’re behind. It usually means you care. Because of that, I’ve kept my support intentionally low-barrier and flexible, so getting help doesn’t require big commitments or perfect readiness. Ways to work with me (outside of Skool) https://calendly.com/consulting-with-heather/microschool_consulting 30-Minute Clarity Call – $77 Great if you need help deciding next steps, pressure-testing an idea, or getting unstuck on one specific thing. Monthly Support (cancel anytime): • Starter, $150 – 3 calls/month • Growth, $225 – 4 calls/month + 3 text questions (most popular for active launchers) • Full Support, $325 – weekly calls + 6 text support questions + templates/resources This is for founders who want real guidance, honest feedback, and help focusing on what actually matters right now, not hype or hustle. Prefer DIY? I also have playbooks for founders who want to move at their own pace: • Microschool Checklist – step-by-step setup clarity https://microschoolmama.gumroad.com/l/xsomn • Microschool 101 Starter – big-picture foundation + practical decisions https://microschoolmama.gumroad.com/l/vwiit They’re designed to reduce overwhelm and help you take action without reinventing the wheel. No pressure, no gatekeeping. Start where you are. If you’re feeling wobbly, bring it to Q&A tonight. If you want one-on-one support, you can book anytime. If all you can do right now is listen, that counts too. You’re not doing this alone 🖤

First, I owe you an apology for missing our 2nd Saturday coffee chat. I’m currently worldschooling in Portugal, and between exploring with my kiddo and the 5-hour time difference, I genuinely lost track of the day. Not ideal, and I appreciate everyone’s grace. That said, I want to be really clear about this, I am fully invested in this community. This space matters to me. I’m building it with intention, not as a side project or a hype group, but as a real support system for people doing brave, human work. We’re officially 50+ members now, which still blows my mind. Real people, real schools, real questions, real impact. Huge shout-out to @Tomis Parker, @Ronisha Hill and @Mandy Lopez for jumping in, engaging, asking questions, and helping set the tone. That kind of presence is what turns a group into a community. Reminder: We have our Community Q&A this Wednesday at 7pm EST. Cameras optional. Come with questions, stuck points, ideas, or just to listen. If you missed Saturday (or I missed you 😅), Wednesday is a great place to reconnect. This is a working grove. We grow by showing up, even imperfectly. Really glad you’re here 🌱

Low-pressure, cameras optional, come as you are. I also wanted to share something really cool with you all. I dropped a couple screenshots of our community map and y’all… we already have founders represented all across the U.S. and internationally. Different states, different countries, different stages, same heart for small, human-centered learning. And some fun specifics: 👉 13 founders in Florida 👉 7 founders in Texas If you’re in either state, definitely reach out to each other. There’s real power in local connections, shared regs, pop-up collabs, and just not feeling like you’re building alone. This is exactly why this space exists. If you haven’t yet, I’d love for you to jump in to the Start Here section and get active: • Post where you’re located • Share what you’re building (or dreaming about) • Ask for help • Name what you’re stuck on • Share resources, ideas, or wins • Tell us what you want more of here You don’t need to have it all figured out. This is a working grove, not a highlight reel. If today’s coffee time doesn’t work, no worries at all, just drop a post in the community when you can. Every voice helps shape this space. Excited to connect and keep growing this together 🌱

Thank you to our founding members that joined me for our first “coffee chat” this morning! It was so nice to learn what you are all are doing and share tips and ideas! We will meet again weekly, this Wed @7pm for Q&A and Saturdays @10:30sm for coffee chats! We had 3 different time zones on this call. Microschooling is worldwide! Who’s coming to Wed nights meeting?!
