And I am going to be really fcking honest about something…
I used to think that number was something to apologise for.
And before you say… apologising to WHO Mimi… Nobody. That's the point. Nobody asked me to. Nobody was judging the number. Nobody was sat there going ooh only 109… embarrassing…
That was just me. In my own head. Doing that thing we do 😂
That voice going… you should be further along by now… ooo look at them… why can't you do that… what's wrong with you…
Yeah. That one.
𝗔𝗻𝗱 𝗼𝗵 𝗺𝘆 𝗱𝗼𝗴… 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗖𝗢𝗠𝗣𝗔𝗥𝗜𝗡𝗚…
Scrolling through going… why is my community growing so slow… how have THEY got 500 members in one day… WOW they just hit 5K…
And then the really fun (not) bit where your brain goes… maybe I'm just not cut out for this… maybe I'm missing something everyone else knows… maybe I should just do what they're doing…
😬 yeah… been there?… don't pretend you haven't…
Watching everyone brag about their numbers whilst quietly feeling a bit crap about mine.
Hands up. I have chased the number. I have celebrated the number. I have let the number mean something it absolutely never meant.
And I spent WAY too much energy watching that crap out there…
Energy that was doing absolutely NAFF ALL for the 109 epic humans already sitting inside my room…
Then something shifted.
No more.
DONE.
All that wasted time out there watching other people's dashboards and quietly dying inside…
coming back in HERE.

Because here is what I know now that I did not know then…

is worth more than a room of 10,000 people who scroll past and do absolutely nothing with it.
OBVS. HELLO. DUH. 😂
A community where people DM me and I actually respond. Where someone joins at $1 and six months later they are doing a one on one with me because the trust was built properly… like a human… through support… real convos… and yeah… lots of giggles and fun along the way 😂
Where people go from lurking like a total borasaurus… to posting… to implementing… to getting actual fcking RESULTS.
THAT is what I am building.
Not a number.
DEPTH.
And when I say I want to expand… I do not mean I want to add more people to a room that gets shallower as it gets bigger… pffftttt… not on my watch…
I mean I want to go DEEPER with the epic AF people already in it.
Deeper into their message. Deeper into their results. Deeper into what actually works.
Because THAT is where the good stuff lives.
Not in the dashboard. Not in the vanity metrics. Not in the screenshot of the follower count that means absolutely jack sh*t if nobody's doing anything with it. 😂
It's in the DM from someone saying I finally got my first client from this. 🎉
In the post someone almost did not publish. 🎉
In the offer that sat in a notes app for eight months until we fixed it together in a session. 🎉
THOSE are the numbers I care about.
I see so many people come in chasing the big ones…
I want 5000 members… I want 10k followers… I want I want I want…
And I get it. I really totally big time DO.
That voice is loud. I know exactly how loud it is.
But the question I always come back to…
𝗪𝗛𝗔𝗧 𝗔𝗥𝗘 𝗧𝗛𝗘 𝗣𝗘𝗢𝗣𝗟𝗘 𝗔𝗟𝗥𝗘𝗔𝗗𝗬 𝗜𝗡 𝗬𝗢𝗨𝗥 𝗥𝗢𝗢𝗠 𝗔𝗖𝗧𝗨𝗔𝗟𝗟𝗬 𝗚𝗘𝗧𝗧𝗜𝗡𝗚?
Because if you focus on THAT… like really REALLY focus on that…
the number takes care of itself.
Always
Growth that comes from depth is the only growth worth having. Full stop. End of. Mic drop. 😂
109 people. Growing. Going deeper every single week.
I would not swap it for anything…
Simplicity. Soul. Sarcasm. Always.

P.S - And if you're reading this going, I want to be in a room where this is the conversation…
that's exactly what The Backroom is… 109 real humans. Real talk. Real depth. $1 to walk through the door.
