👥 COMMUNITY IS EVERYTHING.

Eine Community aufbauen?

Aber darum geht's nicht.

Es geht um die ersten Supporter.

Meine Tribe.

Denn sie sind es, die aus einem Podcast eine Bewegung machen.

🌍 Building a community?

But that's not the point.

It's about the first supporters.

My tribe.

Because they turn a podcast into a movement.

Real talk.
Die meisten teilen nur ihre Erfolge.
Ihre Siege.
Ihre Highlights.
Das ist nicht RAW.
RAW ist wenn die Maske fällt.
Wenn wir über die schlaflosen Nächte sprechen.
Die Selbstzweifel.
Die durchgeweinten Abende.
Den Moment, wo wir fast aufgegeben hätten.
Denn genau da - in dieser Verletzlichkeit - da entstehen die Gespräche, die wirklich was bewegen.

Was hat mich dazu inspiriert, RAW WITH DARMAS zu starten?

Where authentic conversations create lasting impact.
