The most important thing to get clear on when you're first launching a community is what exactly you're unifying people around. What's the core sense of belonging? I share examples of common denominators that you can use as a launching point to cultivate a positive, aspirational environment. I also touch on some of the layers of creating a strong emotional connection to your brand and explain why it's so important to constantly reinforce what you stand for. In this episode we talk about: Questions to help guide the 'why' of your community The most powerful thing to create community around Why I don't believe creating community around a shared problem is the best angle to take A great litmus test for those of you who are building community The #1 way to organically scale your community If you loved today's episode, please share your favorite takeaways or your own systems and processes by screenshotting this episode and tagging us on Instagram!

I challenged myself last year to accept anyone's offer to support me in any way, shape, or form. If the idea of doing that scares you, I'm right there with you. However, it gave me some major insight into some of the beliefs and habits that just really couldn't come with me where I was going next. I realized that if we aren't able to receive support, we can't call in abundance and opportunities. Listen in to learn more about my takeaways from this experiment and how you can implement it into your life, too. In this episode we talk about: How this practice has helped me step into the person that my dream requires me to be A really critical step in growing your vision and scaling your business Cultivating feelings of being worthy to receive Noticing where you need to relinquish some control Shining a light on the discomfort that a lot of us experience when we receive support If you loved today's episode, please share your favorite takeaways or your own systems and processes by screenshotting this episode and tagging us on Instagram!
