Movement Marketing + Business Strategy for Thought Leaders - Using Search Discovery to Get You Found
The number one indicator of future success, according to data? The expansiveness of your network. I used to HATE hearing this stat because it conjured up visions of who you know being the most important thing—not how good you are at doing your thing. So, basically a bunch of bros in the know failing upwards. #sorrynotsorry Was I doomed to mediocrity because I never am going to be a cool kid? But as I've gotten older, I've experienced a slow but consistent reframe of that. Because these days, a network can be anything. And it can look so beautifully unique for each of us. I've got thousands of compassionate, kind, brilliant thinkers who read my newsletter every week (and reply—I love your replies!). I have an amazing cadre of people in my business circle thanks to the internet. Folks like Nicole Sidoti from Studio Clever, Mark Schiralli of Own Your Mark, Natalie Bullen from Unapologetic Wealth, Nequosha Anderson (my awesome attorney), and of course, Jamar Diggs. (If I left you out and you should be on this list, I ❤️ you and I am so sorry for the oversight or LinkedIn wasn't letting me tag you ugh.) And then I have my incredible local community in Portland—these folks are doing amazing things all the time and I'm so lucky to know them. How did that happen? Talking, sharing, connecting. Most definitely it was NOT from "how can I grow my network today?" It turns out, if you talk about things that excite you, if you share generously, if you make a small amount of effort to build connections—you don't have to be a cool kid to have an expansive and diverse network. 👉 If you're in search of a supportive network that feels like home, there are lots of ways to make that happen. One of them is in the Luminary Mastermind with myself and Natalie Bullen. Applications are open on a rolling basis, and we'll start reviewing them soon. The link is in the first comment—we can't wait to talk to you!
