Happy Friday {{ First Name | friend }},
Well, our momentum stalled a little this week, likely in part due to a major life update on my side (more on that below), but we’ve got some new faces that joined. Welcome!
I will say, it’s been great hearing that this is helpful for many of you and I was really inspired by some of the calls this week! Thank you!
Tuesday’s espresso shot helping out a member! ☕❤
“I don’t know exactly why, but honestly I just like getting them [the emails] if that makes any sense. Not every single topic is going to speak to me (or anyone) but a lot of it really does.”
Thanks, trying to keep it real. 👊
I am trying to see how to add the most value for you all. Ideally, in digestible size, but where the wins add up over time.
I’ll be honest, it is a challenge as topics are broad, email is a powerful (but limited) tool, and I’m also new to this, so I appreciate your engagement.
Your feedback is so valuable - if it’s not helping you in any way (big or small) then I’m failing, which is cool, because I can adjust.
I will consistently want to know what is on your mind these days, to help you navigate wherever I can, so don’t be shy.
In this week’s recap:

Life Update: I Got Married!
Laughing as we did not have time to choreograph a first dance 🥂
As we build community, I am navigating how much of my personal life you all care to engage with, but this was a big one.
We feel so blessed to have had the chance to celebrate our marriage, love, family, and friends from all parts of life - all together in a beautiful week.
We kept it very intimate and small and while there were many more we wish we could have hosted, we truly felt love from everyone there and from around the world.
Life’s beauty lies in the moments we create and share. This was a special one!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
The Bad
ZERO member referrals: TBH this is fair, as I’ve never referred anyone to a newsletter before Infinite Momentum, so this might not be a realistic ask.
ZERO comments / likes on posts: I think this is because you need to be on web and most of us view content on email. I may disable comments if unhelpful.
Testing, testing! Is this thing on? ❤️
I was hoping this community would be on the private side, where members only are added through word-of-mouth, so everyone knows someone when they join.
This is about managing quality over quantity, not being exclusionary.
I’m rethinking if that’s the best approach after these first few weeks. Let’s see how it develops
Does this mean you don’t see value, you don’t like referrals, or something else? 🤔🤔🤔
The Ugly
My crying face as my bride walked down the aisle was pretty damn ugly… but I’m not ready to share that yet.
Plan for Next Week
This weekend, I am attending a 3-day workshop on Mastery in Transformational Training so wish me luck as I’m not entirely sure what I have in store.
Goals for next week:
Post 1x a day Monday to Friday - including 1 more member story
Grow community to 75+ members
Share results from New Member Survey on interest areas and challenges
