I joined a $5,000 mastermind at 4 AM after seeing one random Threads post, and it was one of the best business purchases of my life.
The woman who led me to this decision was Vix Meldrew — community building queen, Diet Coke connoisseur, and the leader behind some of the most successful group programs I've ever seen. We're diving into why being yourself isn't just nice advice, why your quirks and niche interests are marketing gold, and how Vix scaled her programs while working 25 hours a week.
TOPICS & TANGENTS
— The social media presence scale (from "mystery human" to "oversharing your bowel contents")
— My discovery that not everyone’s lungs burn when they run
— How to be more you without trauma-dumping on Instagram
— Why overusing ChatGPT is killing your launch conversions
— Our sophisticated Threads strategy of relentless shitposting
— Building in public: how Vix got 220 people in a Slack channel before her membership even existed
— Why the "nurture your current audience" advice is keeping you stuck
POINT OF THE STORY
Your community doesn't want you to be more professional — they want you to be more you. Stop over-strategizing and start sharing the parts of yourself that make people say "finally, someone who gets it."
