Let's talk
14 weeks ago, I made a pivot to post valuable information in bite-sized pieces during the week:
Monday - freelancing tips
Wednesday - community insights
Thursday - Community Life Show or Community ROI podcast episodes
Friday - human connections hacks
I wanted to have this newsletter more of a summary of what I've shared during the week so everyone who missed it could go and review it.
No matter how hard I tried to keep it that way, I've still got this "Let's talk" part, where I share something even more - usually, it's what's on my mind at the moment ??
But now I have one more pivot to do!
I strongly believe that most of the problems people have are not problems, they're expenses.
As Haruki Murakami said,
"Spend your money on the things money can buy. Spend your time on the things money can’t buy."
While moving toward my goal of helping 500 people in 2025, I've noticed that money is helping me spend more time on the things it can't buy, and that's why I decided to become a dollar millionaire by 40!
I still have some time ??
Also, I will document my journey toward this goal weekly and share it with everyone, so if you have a similar goal, it can spark some ideas and start amazing conversations that will move us forward!
And just like that... meet the first edition of:
And yes, further on this newsletter on LI (that you're reading right now) will be a summary of what happened during the week!
In case you missed it, here is what I've talked about this week! ????

Let's Dive In ??
Community ROI
Community-led campaigns reduce costs, increase engagement, and bring in more qualified leads by leveraging interactive challenges, crowdsourced ideas, and brand ambassadors to authentically spread the word.
Want to see how to make it work for your business?
Community ROI podcast
What if your community events weren’t just events—but millions of small case studies? ??
That’s part of what we discussed in the latest Community ROI podcast episode with Ece Kurtaraner !
Mastering Freelancing
Not every client is a good one—some are walking red flags ??????
Want the full breakdown of how to handle these situations?
Human Connections
Being the smartest (or loudest) person in the room doesn’t build real connections.
Growth happens when we challenge, encourage, and lift each other!
If you're already here, please share your reflections with me, I’d love to hear from you! ??
And thank you for being on this journey with me! ??
Curiosity Corner
"And that, my young friends, is the story of our country, one invader after another,” the driver said, flicking cigarette ash out the window. Macedonians. Sassanians. Arabs. Mongols. Now the Soviets. But we’re like those walls up there. Battered, and nothing pretty to look at, but still standing.”
Excerpt from "A Thousand Splendid Suns" by Khaled Hosseini
