| #92: My Email List Shrank (Here's What I'm Doing About It) | 15 May 2026 | 00:16:15 | |
In this episode I share something vulnerable: that my email list has not been growing. In fact, it has been shrinking. I'll walk you through exactly what has gone wrong and the strategy I'm using to turn it around. I’m sharing the real numbers and feelings behind noticing that my list had shrunk, why it actually made sense after running a summit, and why unsubscribes are not always a problem to fix. 🎧 Tune in to hear:
💭 [02:12] - "Whenever you do anything that brings in a nice chunk of people, you are always going to have a little bit of a increased exodus of some of those people afterwards. And it really is nothing to worry about." 💭 [14:47] - "Don't spiral about people unsubscribing after an influx because it's normal, but build those systems systems in place. Put those welcome emails in place, put the right fit offers in place to help improve the chances of those people becoming clients over time." 🔗 Links Mentioned:

| #91: Difficult Clients, Refunds, and the Dark Side of Entrepreneurship - A Conversation with My Mastermind | 01 May 2026 | 00:58:38 | |
It is very easy to feel alone when something goes wrong in your business - a refund request that feels personal, a client who turns on you, a payment that fails and goes quiet, or something bigger that knocks the wind out of you. But these things happen to all of us, and talking honestly about them is one of the most helpful things we can do. This one is a Weird Hermits mastermind roundtable on the less glamorous side of running an online business. We get into the hardest client situations we have navigated, our different refund policies and the philosophies behind them, how we handle failed payments and payment plan ghosters, the contracts and terms that have saved us, and the mindset shifts that help us stay regulated when things go sideways. With Kate Kordsmeier, Destini Copp, Jordan Gill, Faith Mariah, Liz Stapleton and Ruth Poundwhite. 🎁 Click here for a free bundle of goodies from the Weird Hermits 🎁 🎧 Tune in to hear:
💭 [09:00] "Sometimes in the moment, these things are so huge and so difficult and we don't know how to deal with it, or how to take this what feels like an attack on us. And then it's no big deal when you look back. We can laugh about it. It's all part of the journey." - Ruth 💭 [41:06] "Sometimes giving refunds has been a way of closing things out that actually feels good. It doesn't always have to feel like your boundaries are being pushed over. It can feel like this is a relationship that needs to end." - Faith 💭 [43:23] "At a certain point, the energetic leak and how negative and scarce it made my mindset was just like - this is not worth it. I gotta just walk away." - Kate 🤖 The Aligned AI Lab is open for founding members until Tuesday 26th May 🤖 A monthly membership for heart-led offer creators who want AI workflows that actually take work off their plate.

| #81: How to Sell Every Day (And Feel Good About Doing It) | 20 Feb 2026 | 00:21:25 | |
Want to know a secret about selling? The people who feel calmest about it aren’t the ones selling less, they’re the ones who sell more often. And this episode will show you why. In this episode, I’m sharing why selling every day isn’t about being pushy or exhausting yourself - it’s about building momentum and confidence. I talk about how setting a simple “sell every day” challenge has helped me (and my clients) move through perfectionism, overthinking, and fear of annoying people. I also walk you through what selling every day can actually look like in a sustainable, human way - from tiny PS invitations to simple tweaks in your existing content. This is about redefining selling on your terms, making it feel lighter, and remembering that your right people truly need what you offer. 🔗 Links:
🎧 Tune in to hear:
💭 [06:45] “Selling every day doesn't have to mean what you think it means.” 💭 [12:50] “Did I make it clear to my right people today that I am open for business and that I have something they can buy?” 💭 [19:45] “Selling every day can mean whatever you want it to mean.” 🤖 The Aligned AI Lab is open for founding members until Tuesday 26th May 🤖 A monthly membership for heart-led offer creators who want AI workflows that actually take work off their plate.
