One algorithm change, one hacked account, one bad week, and the audience you built for years is gone.šŸ’Ø

You rent this land of followers.
You don’t own it.
Your email list comes with you everywhere: new platform, new pivot, doesn’t matter, your people follow.

That’s the whole point of my newest cohort program, The Newsletter System.

It moves you off rented land and onto something that’s finally yours.

Comment TNS and I’ll send you where to start. šŸ’Œ

Almost everyone I trust told me not to pivot.

I’m a numbers & data girl.

When I see followers or opens dip, I spiral. I’m human after all!?

So walking away from the thing I’m known for, on purpose, went against everyyy instinct I’ve built my business on.

But my gut had been sending these signals for years, and the data eventually caught up and agreed with it.

Sometimes the quiet feeling knows before the spreadsheet does.

If you’ve been waiting for permission or proof to trust your own gut, this episode is both. šŸ¤

I dreaded my first newsletter more than almost anything I’ve ever hit send on.

Not techy. Not a writer. Definitelyyy not sure anyone wanted to hear from me.

Sent it anyway.

Then did it again the next week. And the week after that.

My list is a fraction the size of some accounts I know. But more than half of them open the door every single week when I knock.

It was never about the size of the room.

It’s about how many people can actually hear you when you talk. šŸ’«

Doors to The Newsletter System open Monday, 9/14. 35 spots.

Comment DRIFT and I’ll get you on the waitlist for first dibs before they go live to everyone else. šŸ«¶šŸ¼

47 freebies. Five worked. The other 42 were tuition. šŸ˜…

For years I thought a list that wasn’t growing meant I needed a better idea. Nope!!!

It meant I kept making freebies that were too big, too confusing, or that I posted once and never mentioned again.

The five that actually grew my list…

SO boring on paper.

One clear resource, named so people instantly got it, small enough to finish, and I promoted it into the ground for months.

My list is 25k subscribers and it’s not bc I’m some freebie guru.

It’s a few good ones I refused to shut up about.

I’m teaching exactly how to build yours today.

Free training, called The One Good Freebie Method, happening TODAY, Wed 9/9 @ 12:30p EST.

Comment ONE and I’ll send you the way in. šŸ”‘

Here’s what I thought would happen when I stopped posting for 3 weeks: everything would fall apart.

Sales would stop.
People would forget me.

The whole business would quietly slide backward while I sat there doing nothing.

None of that happened.

What actually happened is I got the clearest look I’ve had in years at where my time was going, and where it was quietly paying off.

My email list & my podcast were doing the heavy lifting all along, for a fraction of the effort.

I’m not telling you to quit Instagram. I’m telling you to stop letting it be your only way in.

If you’re ready to build a business that doesn’t live and die by the algorithm, comment POD84 and I’ll send you this week’s episode.

Sh*t you not, I was more terrified of starting a weekly newsletter than of having my babies.
⁠
The idea of sitting down, writing something, and having real humans read and judge my words made me want to disappear.⁠
⁠
Six years and 290-plus weekly newsletters later, turns out the fear was never about me not being a talented writer…

I was a missing structure I could follow w my eyes closed.

And that, my solopreneur friend, is the most fixable thing in the world.⁠
⁠
I broke it all down in this week’s podcast episode.⁠
⁠
If the blank page has ever made you close your laptop and swear you’ll write it next week….

This free, step-by-step course that takes you from ā€œI know I need an email listā€ to actually having one that grows.

Made for the non-techy and the not-a-writers (of which I’m both).

You’ve heard it a hundred times.
You need an email list as a small biz owner.

It’s the one thing you actually own, the one place the algorithm can’t touch, the spot where the people who like you can actually hear from you.

But every time you go to start, it feels like a tech project you don’t have time for. You’re not sure which provider to pick, what a freebie even is, or how people actually get on the list.

So it stays on the someday pile.

This kit gets you off the someday pile. I’ll walk you through the whole thing, start to finish, in the exact order I’d do it myself.

Comment KIT…and I’ll send this bad boy over!

I love asking women what scares them most about starting a newsletter. ⁠
⁠
The answers are always some version of the same thing: I don’t have anything worth saying, I’ll run out of ideas, it’s a huge commitment, etc.⁠
⁠
One woman told me she has newsletters written that she still hasn’t sent, and the longer they sit, the more terrified she gets. ⁠
⁠
Her word for it was ā€œBRUTAL.ā€ā 
⁠
I felt that in my whole body, because that fear kept me frozen for a long time too, untillll it didn’t.⁠

I’ve drifted away from businesses that I’ve loved. Not in some crazy dramatic way. I just got busy, they went quiet, and one day I realized I completely forgot they existed.

TBH, they were likely still posting on social media?! I’m just not a huge consumer and the algo didn’t feed me their posts.

That’s the sneaky part about an email list that you’re not utilizing.

Your people don’t actively decide to leave you or forget about you.

They just…drift away.

The Newsletter System isn’t about turning you into a writer.

It’s about becoming the business your people CAN’T drift away from, by showing up in the one place you actually own.

The consistency was never for me. It was for the people I didn’t want to forget about me.

Doors open Monday, September 14th at 6am EST, and my waitlist gets first access to limited spots.

Comment DRIFT and I’ll send you the details.

Most freebies flop bc they’re built around what you want to teach, not what your person is actually stuck on.

Fix that, and your freebie becomes the front door to a list that’s yours for good!!

Monthly challenge + my pressie + a live Canva build-along + rapid-fire audits.

The whole 30-day plan is in the carousel šŸ‘†

The whole Coven September plan in one place. Notice every single thing ladders back to ONE outcome: a freebie that grows your list.

You’ve got a freebie sitting there NOT converting…anddd you’re not sure why. 30 days from now you’ll have one that solves the right problem and is actually ready to promote.

You don’t need five freebies. You need ONE good one. I’ll walk you through picking the format, naming it for an instant ā€œyes,ā€ and positioning it so it leads straight to your offer.

Got a freebie idea you’re side-eyeing? Drop it in and we’ll pressure-test whether it’s clear + solving the right problem for your ideal client. Real eyes on it, not guesswork.

Knowing what to make ≠ actually making it. We cowork live for 30 mins so you log off with a promo post built, not just another thing on the to-do list.

Tammy, LMHC | Money Behavior NerdšŸ’« is coming to school is on all things OFFER PRICING! A freebie gets them on your list — pricing is where the sale actually happens. Tamasin (therapist + money expert) breaks down why charging more feels unsafe, and how to fix it.

You don’t have to keep performing for an algorithm that owns your audience. The list that’s actually yours? We build it in here. Comment TCC and I’ll send you the deets.
