There are no "easy" sales anymore…

The days when you could fire off a quick post and make some sales are gone.

Attention is expensive and customers have gotten skeptical.

So, yes… it's more competitive. But that doesn't have to mean we're now playing on "hard" mode…

It just means we have to raise our game.

The best way to do that is by getting good at marketing.

I'm not talking about overblown tricks, hype, or social media faking…

I'm talking about real marketing – being able to attract the right people, make a compelling offer, and get paid for the transformation you create.

When you get good at marketing, you can create your own economy.

And in shaky times, being able to rise above what's going on in the world so you can maximize the impact you create might be one of the most important things you can do.

And if you think marketing is sleazy or icky… you've only seen bad marketing.

This is what REAL marketing looks like…

Launching is one of the best ways of building an email list. But… what if you don't have an audience?

How do you get those first few hundred subscribers?

If you've ever built an audience from scratch, you'll know this can be a slow grind. It can feel like a rocket launch – it takes a ton of energy just to get off the ground.

But what if there was a path that got you over that initial hump – so you go from zero to 100, 200… or even 300 subscribers – without it feeling like a battle?

Because once you hit those numbers… that's when momentum kicks in… and things start to accelerate.

In this week's episode of Dare to Launch, we sit down with Stenya St Clair and Nicola López Rabkin of Matriarchy Biz who share the simple strategy they used – and teach their clients – to build an audience from scratch.

This could be the difference between getting 2 or 3 new leads a month… to getting 2 or 3 hundred.

They also get into:

• How to go from 0-300 perfect fit subscribers in weeks, rather than months.

• The failure penalty that women face more than men – and how to avoid it

• How Stenya turned $650 into $7500 with just one Prelaunch lead generation campaign

• The "backward" mistake entrepreneurs make with lead magnets… and how to fix it

• Why posting on social media isn't enough anymore (and why Nicola often advises clients to STOP posting on Instagram)

• Why most entrepreneurs start with a low ticket offer – and why this is often a huge mistake

• The reason 1-to-1 offers are perfect for first time launches (and why selling just 1 or 2 spots in your launch is actually a good thing)

… and much more.

Plus – Nicola and Stenya walk us through the metrics they focus on for their clients – what to track, what they look for, and the benchmarks you should be aiming for in your campaigns.

(Grab a pen and paper, so you can go through your data)

Whether you want to build an audience of aligned, perfect fit customers… or you want to skip the overwhelm and get straight down to the lead gen tactics that work…

… this episode is filled with super practical and actionable strategies you can use.

It's easy to think "I only teach knitting…" or "I'm only helping people choose better outfits…"

But in case nobody's told you lately…

What you do matters. More than you think.

And in this clip from Dare to Launch, I talk about the moment I finally understood that – and why you should NEVER underestimate the value you create.

Because it took me far too long to learn this lesson…

In 12 years, I went from dreaming about making $10k in a year… to earning $1MM in 53 minutes.

I hit all my financial goals… and it sent me into a tailspin, questioning what my life was really about.

I went to Tony Robbins events, yoga retreats, and meditation workshops…

(It seems I was a slow study.)

Eventually, I realized it was never about the money – it was about impact… helping entrepreneurs like you share their wisdom.

Because here's what you might be missing…

Our work creates ripples. Ripples that go further than we can see.

That's why I think entrepreneurs are the future of humanity – even if you're "only" teaching someone how to play the guitar, write a story, or cook a meal…

Don't sell yourself short.

Here's why you're making a bigger difference than you realize…

You can have the best product, the perfect strategy, and your messaging dialed in… and still blow it all in five seconds.

We've all had "why did I do that?" moments – when we react to something in a panic… only to later regret it.

This is why mindset is everything for entrepreneurs…

Every time you go into fight or flight, your brain doesn't see a problem to be solved… it sees a threat to be dodged.

And that's when panic and overwhelm kick in… and your best thinking disappears.

But what if you could step into that moment and stop your brain from getting hijacked?

You'd be able to access all the good stuff – you'd make better decisions… solve problems quickly and effectively… and unlock new levels of creativity…

It'd be like taking a "Limitless" pill.

Truth is, you can't serve your people when you're stuck in survival mode. That's why you need a battle plan for handling tough moments.

And you're in luck…

Because in this week's clip from Dare to Launch, Annie Hyman Pratt gives us four simple steps for taking back control when it matters.

This quick listen could save you from making a costly mistake…

When a book publisher turned her down, Sandra Angelo didn't argue…

Instead, she printed her book at Kinko's, put it in a Ziploc bag… and sold it for $10.

That "rejected" book went on to make her over $1.2MM.

(And yes, that publisher came crawling back years later!)

Today, Sandra makes 7-figures a year teaching folks how to go from drawing stick figures to gallery-level art in months… rather than years.

She gets results – fast.

But she's not making 7 figures because she's built a gigantic audience…

Sandra's super picky about who she works with. So she's gotten really, really good at generating huge launches from tiny lists.

And in this episode of Dare to Launch, she talks about how she does that.

We also get into:

• How she sold over $1.2MM worth of books – despite being went rejected by every publisher

• Why "I don't have a big list" and "who am I to teach?" shouldn't hold you back

• Her approach to compressing time that gets her students results – fast

• How she made six-figures in one year – while recovering from a near fatal medical mistake

• Why not going "by the book" landed her 14 prestigious commissions (worth thousands of dollars)

• How she rebuilt everything from scratch when her life burned to the ground (literally!)

• The one article that triggered "eleventy billion calls" and $60k in sales in just four days (including the magic photo that made all the difference)

… and more.

This is a fun conversation… and Sandra's story is truly amazing… and inspiring. She busts a lot of myths about what it takes to succeed.

(And if you've been sitting on an idea you haven't launched yet… you'll definitely want to hear the story about how inaction cost Sandra $600,000…)

ABOUT TODAY'S EPISODE

I've got more in common with Star-Lord (the character from the "Guardians of the Galaxy" movies) than I should probably admit…

OK, so I don't have a laser blaster… or a spaceship (yet!).

But like him, I definitely didn't look like the guy to bet on at the start…

I was a stay-at-home dad with a failed corporate career who hadn't made a dime in six years. So if you were looking for someone who would go on to save the galaxy make over $100MM in sales… you probably wouldn't have picked me.

Same goes for my good friend Elliott Connie…

Elliott started out with a front row seat to a rough life. He was about as far away from a happy, contented, confident life as you can imagine…

But now he's a world-renowned author, speaker, podcaster who's helped thousands of people… and he's just landed his own network TV show.

Like Star-Lord and his crew of misfits, we might not be the smartest, flashiest, or the obvious picks to win…

But we won anyway!

And that's the thing – you don't need to be perfect to succeed in this game.

Like Elliott and me, you can create something awesome… even when no one else gives you a chance.

Let's get into how to do that during a quick "taco break"…

If last year felt kinda weird – that's because it was weird.

Conversions dropped. Engagement tanked – 2025 was a tough year to be a business owner.

So let's dig into some of the practical, tactical changes we're making this year.

And not just me…

In this week's episode of Dare to Launch, we're joined by Emma and Eleanor from The Reconnected.

They've done numerous seven-figure launches – and generated over A$10MM in a little over five years…

… but they also experienced a ton of challenges last year – challenges that affected pretty much every business owner (and a few crazy ones that didn't!).

Together, we break down the big shifts we saw in 2025… and what we're doubling down on over the next 12 months…

(Things you should be doubling down on too.)

We get into:

• How to pull off a six- or seven-figure launch – from your bed (Emma actually did this last year – it's a crazy story)

• The "Middle G" problem that was quietly costing them sales from their best customers

• Why charging for your free content could increase your show-up rates… and your sales

• The "real time vibe checks" their team track more than clicks and opens

• Why their best email strategy was also their big blindspot

• Why "I can't afford it" is rarely the true objection… and how to find the real reason your customers aren't buying

• The Slack channel that every member of their team watches during a launch

• How they get their customers to improve their messaging and write better copy… without them even knowing about it

… and more.

There's been some big shifts over the past year. But this isn't doom and gloom…

Customers are still buying.

People are still looking for real human beings to help them.

It's still an awesome time to be an entrepreneur.

This episode will help you show up and serve your people in a BIG way (and make it easier for them to say yes)...

My friend Pat Flynn just shared a great solution for the "succeed without burning yourself out" problem.

And this might be one of the best skills you can learn…

It's no secret I'm not hustle culture's biggest fan.

Sure, there are times when you need to push the pedal to the floor. But there's only so much pushing you can do before you burn out.

Trouble is, by the time you're smelling smoke… it's too late.

That's where Pat's technique comes in…

It's called a "Power 10." And it's something he learned in college to get ahead without hitting the wall.

(Pat also used it recently to finish writing his book in just 10 days… without sacrificing family time.)

Here's what's cool – once he explains it, you'll see how you can apply it to any area of your life – not just your business.

Here's Pat to walk you through it…

Hal Elrod shouldn't be alive.

When he was 20, he was hit head-on by a drunk driver and declared clinically dead for six minutes. When he came out of his coma, the doctors had more bad news – they told him he'd never walk again…

But he did.

Years later, Hal was diagnosed with a rare and aggressive cancer… and given two weeks to live.

He beat that too.

You might think it's a miracle Hal is still alive… and you'd be right.

But this isn't luck… or chance.

Hal made TWO decisions on both those occasions that helped him beat the odds… and go on to achieve the impossible.

He calls them the "Miracle Equation."

And in this week's episode of Dare to Launch, he shares how you can use it to create miracles in your own life, including:

• The two part "Miracle Equation" Hal used to defy the doctors – and how you can it in business, launches, and life

• The Jim Rohn quote that inspired his entire Miracle Morning movement

• The single most effective Miracle Morning habit – and how to use it to hit your 2026 goals faster

• The three words Hal says to himself to bounce back from rejection, criticism, or any kind of crisis

• What most people get wrong about affirmations – and Hal's three-step approach that helps you cultivate a bulletproof mindset

• Plus – how to build your own "Miracle Morning" – Hal walks us through the six habits that can rebuild your mindset, your health, and your business.

… and more.

Hal's living proof that you can create miracles. But there's nothing woo-woo about this…

You need to put in the work. But if you're up to the task… you can achieve the impossible. And this episode will show you how.

It's the time of year when folks are getting excited about the goals they want to hit next year. And while having goals is awesome…

When you set a goal that feels really big, it can drain the energy out of you – the finish line seems so far away… a little too out of reach.

But before you start setting your sights on lower, more "realistic" targets, here's something I've noticed…

Most of the time… those big, far off, audacious goals aren't as distant as people think.

And this clip from Dare to Launch – where Emma and Eleanor from The Reconnected share their "Launch Life" – is a great example.

("Launch Life" is the term we use in our community to describe your dream life – the ability to run your business so it fits your life and goals, rather than the other way around.)

Because while Emma and Eleanor share plenty of pinch me moments that often seem like far off dreams – international travel, holidays, financial freedom…

What I want you to pay attention to is how they made it happen…

They didn't change their business, their mission, or their clients… they built their dream life by evolving how they served their people.

That's why I want you to check out this clip.

Because whatever goals you're shooting for in 2026 – more freedom, more income, a bigger purpose…

… you might find they're closer than you think.
