I rewrote this intro a bunch of times and struggled to find the right words.
So I’ll cut to the chase and just say what I want you to know…
• I want you to know in one week you’ll no longer get my newsletter unless you join my membership.
(If you’re already a member, no need to join again – you’re good and will keep getting the newsletter at no extra charge.)
• I want you to know if you join, you’ll ALSO get access to my Skill Session training videos and 1-1 help from me whenever you want it.
• I want you to know you can join my membership for as little as $99 (only $8 a month)
• I want you to know joining my membership can change your life and business.
For example, here’s what member Amy Mayers said after seeing my most recent Skill Session – The Courage Finder – about how to do what scares you:
“I found myself fighting back tears for most of the session.
I have an inherited ethos, I guess you could call it, of don’t and can’t deeply embedded within me, which has stopped me from fully realizing my potential, or even admitting what that potential might be.
And I feared that if I didn’t hold myself back, either I’d be punished or something bad would happen!
This skill session is like a key unlocking a jail cell.
I hope this doesn’t sound overly dramatic but this session plus your validation of what I want to do is landing deep inside me.
Thanks for helping me get started on my way.”
Join today to have an experience like Amy had.

My Final Words Of The Week
A week from now, 10,000+ fewer people will read my newsletter.
And I’m looking forward to it.
That seems counterintuitive at best and insane at worst, but it’s true.
This is why I feel that way.
Have an interesting week!
