The Value of Authenticity in Building Online Courses

In this Scaling Therapy Practice podcast episode, James Marland from Course Creation Studio emphasizes the importance of authenticity when launching an online course. He warns against treating sales as the foundation of your online course, rather he is advocating that the course should be rooted in your unique abilities, values, and authenticity. Marlon offers practical suggestions for identifying your unique ability and strengths, including self-reflection, seeking feedback from others, and using tools like Dan Sullivan's Unique Ability Workbook. He also highlights the importance of differentiating oneself through one's unique story and experiences instead of relying heavily on sales-oriented tactics. Towards the end of the podcast, Marlon provides strategies to validate your authentic self, including participating in online forums, sharing expert insights on social media, or hosting live Q&A sessions.
