"If your course doesn’t have impact… it doesn’t have a future."
A bold statement, and the truth most course creators aren’t talking about.

We all want our courses to help people. But how do you really know if yours is making a meaningful difference? Not just in metrics, but in someone’s life?

In this episode, Shannon shares a story of working with a successful course creator who had all the revenue but none of the spark. What changed everything wasn’t more content or better funnels, it was a renewed focus on impact.

You’ll learn:

• What course impact actually means 
• The four key signs your course is creating lasting change, and why missing even one of them matters
• How to tell if your students are truly implementing what you teach 

Whether you're questioning your course's effectiveness or simply want to ensure your students walk away transformed, this episode is your first step toward creating a course with reach, reputation, and results.

🎧 Plus: Shannon’s Bold Idea may shift how you see your role as an educator forever.
