I’ve been writing on Medium since 2018.

I run a newsletter with over 22k subscribers.

I’ve only developed 3 offers over the past 4 years.

I rinse & repeat the same product launch twice per year.

I like sticking to what works & making money in a way that feels easy & hassle-free.

It’s been a LONG time since I tried something completely new or joined a new content platform because I never really needed to try something new.

Why make things complicated when everything's working just fine, right?!

But I've had a lot of conversations lately, and my friend Michael Simmons, in particular, convinced me to check out Substack.

Long story short.. I just published my first Substack Note! 🥳

Let me know if you're on Substack by leaving a comment - my profile is still very new, so I'm looking for writers to follow & engage with! 😍

The second thing I'm excited about this week is very close to my heart: I'm hosting a live interview with my dear friend Michael Thompson this Thursday! (yeap, two Michael's in one email today!)

You'll be able to join us live on YouTube as we talk about how to build an audience and writing business by showing up as your authentic self.

Michael's first book will be available soon, and in this interview, we'll cover all the different things that didn't go as planned, and how he's managing the stress of a book launch and the expectation to be present on a million different places to promote his book.

Add the event to your calendar to join us live - we'll have time to answer your questions as well. 👇

Michael has been one of the first online writers I connected with back in 2020 and has been an invaluable mentor and friend over the past few years.

I can't wait to introduce you to him so you can learn from his experience and start to feel confident about showing up as your authentic self when you publish online!

Big love from my screen to yours,
