We dive into:

✨ The difference between a course and a transformational coaching program

💬 Why I stopped selling my online course and focused on building a learning community

💼 How to use community to increase customer retention, engagement, and word-of-mouth sales

🧠 Why clarity comes from conversation — not isolation

🔥 How beginner entrepreneurs can use community to develop their business idea and messaging

📈 The secret to scaling your coaching program or offer without burning out

This episode is a must-watch for any woman building a business online — especially if you're craving connection, clarity, and a space to grow with like-minded women.
