  • You Don’t Need to Post More, You Need to Do This
    Dec 18 2025

    Posting on social media but not seeing results? This episode explains why.

    We break down how course creators should actually use social media to position themselves as the authority in their space. Not by posting more or chasing trends, but by creating content that makes people think, “This is who I need to learn from.”

    In this episode, we share our Authority Formula: strong opinions, deep expertise, and visible passion. We talk about why playing it safe leads to forgettable content, how to take a clear stance without being aggressive, and why surface-level posts don’t convert.

    You’ll walk away with clear prompts to sharpen your opinions, show depth in your content, and communicate what makes your approach different.

    If you want social media to stop feeling like busywork and start working for your course, this episode shows you how.

  • Stop Guessing: Validate Your Course Idea in 3 Steps
    Nov 25 2025

    Send us a text

    We’ve all been there, sitting on a “great” course idea but quietly wondering if anyone will actually pay for it. Instead of guessing or overthinking, there’s a simple way to know.

    In today’s episode, we share the three ingredients every profitable course idea needs. We break down how to choose a topic people already care deeply about, how to confirm they’re actively trying to fix the problem themselves, and how to shape your offer so it solves that problem in a faster, easier, or more enjoyable way.

    This is the exact process we use with our students, and it removes so much uncertainty from choosing the right idea. If you want a course people are excited to buy (and relieved you created), this episode shows you how to validate your idea with confidence.

  • Who Am I to Teach This? Here’s Your Permission Slip to Begin
    Nov 11 2025

    We’ve all had that moment, the “who am I to teach this?” voice that creeps in right when we’re ready to take action. In this episode, we’re getting real about the number one thing that stops more courses from ever being created than anything else: imposter syndrome.

    We’re unpacking the myths that keep so many course creators stuck. Like thinking you need to be the top expert before you can start, or that you have to wait until you feel “ready.” (Spoiler: you won’t.)

    In this conversation, we share how we’ve both dealt with imposter syndrome in our own journeys, why your unique story and style are what make your course special, and how to move forward even when the fear is loud.

    In this episode:

    • Why you don’t need to be the world’s leading expert to teach
    • How your voice and story make your course stand out
    • What’s really hiding behind “I’m not ready yet”
    • How to reframe self-doubt and take action anyway
    • The truth about where confidence actually comes from

    If you’ve been waiting for the perfect moment to start your course, this is your sign, the moment is now.
