I am so happy you are here. It has been quite the week over here. I did something this week

that I haven't done in a really, really long time. And I'm very proud of myself. I hosted a masterclass. I did the three codes to unlock your chart

ranking podcast masterclass. I did that. As I record this, it was yesterday. And it was so

much fun. I used to, I used to do a lot of master classes, actually.

And back when I did them, it was, it was kind of the thing that you did. It was kind of just like

a rule of them, like this very popular strategy that most people did. So, so like, okay, I'm going to do

it too. And the way that I was taught to do master classes was this very masculine, regimented,

you know, formulaic way of teaching where you have a slide deck and you have this exact way to present

the information and you know it very like what felt robotic and beyond exhausting like beyond

and I did so many in that way that I got super burn out. I grew to

despise masterclasses. And I was like, I will never do these again. Unless I figure out a new way

to do them that feels good for me. I just never. And I believe in masterclasses because I

attend masterclasses frequently. And I've seen them done in other ways that are not like

completely the opposite of what I just described to you. But it just never really felt like

the right time for me to finally

put one out there. And then recently it was like, okay, I have this idea. I get requested all the

time to talk about how I've been ranking in the podcast and how I monetize the podcast and all

things. So I wanted to create things for that. And it just felt like the right time to do a

masterclass. And I rolled the dice. I said, okay, we're going to give it another shot. But this time,

I'm going to do it in a way that feels so good for me, which looked like me creating a standard

outline like I normally would, no slides, and just having fun promoting

it. We had an amazing turnout. It was the best energy, and I'm just, I'm really, really thankful
