Locked innnnnn

Biz

Can’t remember if I said when I’d run the workshop in last week’s post. It was gonna be Saturday, but I changed it to Monday (tomorrow!)

This week was a lot of Instagram content – some new top of funnel reels which were fun to make, bunch of mid-funnel talking head reels, and a bunch of clips I took from coaching calls.

And then a lot of workshop prep! Started using Claude Design and WOWOWOWOW I just gave it my workshop outline note with visuals and it created an entire 82 slide deck from nothing, every slide designed well, with some animations. This is wild.

I’ve just got to make a couple tweaks, then run through it a couple times to practice. But otherwise feeling excited and a little nervous.

Also promoted it in the 2 skool communities plus 1 WhatsApp community (member’s club) I’ve been apart of for a couple years now.

The plan is to run it exclusive for members of those communities (all under the same brand) and then probably run another one publicly after on Instagram.

Also launched my first ad on Instagram! I recorded 6 talking head style reels that have more of a qualifier up front and just picked one to throw some money at.

Views/metrics have been an absolute dumpster fire lately. I will accept that I don’t have the best hooks and videos, but the theory right now is mostly that my audience just isn’t really the right target audience and so videos are going to my follows, they aren’t watching because it’s not really for them, then IG alg thinks it’s just not a good video. Lots of variables at play, but the idea is to just “keep going” right now. And this is also the idea behind running follower ads. Pay to get the right people into my world.

Social

Hilarious Saturday community breakfast met some new people, saw some faces I met months ago as well. Grouped into 4s and we were laughing hysterically at the two girls’ night out until 7am that they wouldn’t share the tea about. Dying laughing watching their reactions. Then a bit later having a really great conversation about childhood, parts work, voices, personalities, identities. Ended up staying later like 1.5 hrs to keep chatting.

Working at Openhouse making coaching call reels, these two beautiful blonde girls sit down next to me and this guy across starts talking to them. Started feeling a bit jealous tbh. Finally finished up, packed up, and the guy said something like first time at openhouse and I immediately jumped in, started chatting with the 3 of them, ended up seeing and getting their Instagrams as well. And just felt so confident, playful, jokey, smooth, socially good.

Thoughts From The Week

Still pushing and working quite hard lately. Hitting like 2pm 3pm and feeling my brain just stop being able to focus. Had a really good session Friday? night at Openhouse, brought my laptop and edited coaching call reels, got 11 made and half of them scheduled.

I’ve kind of not really stopped long enough to “breathe,” reflect, take a full day of nothing, journal and check to make sure everything is still feeling aligned.

Last week’s Sunday my 2min morning clarity questions looked like this

## Clarity (2min)
1. What's 1 thing I'm excited about? Relaxing today.
2. What's 1 virtue I want to exhibit ([[202604210704 List of virtues|virtues]])? Relaxation lol
3. What's 1 thing I'm avoiding? Relaxing
4. What's the 1 thing I need to do? Relax

And I… worked on my laptop for about 5 hours, worked out, basically did everything but relaxing.

Mornings I still feel quite good. Coffee gets me excited and I have clear goals/tasks.

And I will say I’ve really been liking this idea of building out your “world.” My biz coach calls it “World Building.” I’ve been writing to and adding to this note that basically has my whole client’s journey, mapping the entire territory: the pain → the behavior → the feeling/indicator → the specific behaviors → the thoughts → what they’ve tried → the real problem → the feeling underneath → the other side.

And it’s been so fun putting names to things, naming terms, coming up with concepts. I’ve been noticing myself use them more and more in the real world, on calls. This past week during Tribal Solutions a guy shared basically my exact ICP and I gave him my thinking vs feeling problems idea and it landed HARD on him, kinda blew his mind. Then a couple minutes later I heard him use the same framework/terminology for someone else that was sharing and I was like, “oh wow… that’s cool.’

So anyways… let’s see what happens after the workshop. I’m hopeful it generates a couple calls. But aside from that, probably gonna throw in a half-day “do nothing” this week because I have a feeling I’m gonna hit a post-workshop dip. I’m a little bit ahead on scheduled content for Instagram reels which does feel pretty good.

I’ll keep ya updated.

What’s Next?

Workshop and hopefully a nice break
