This was our final live for this round of the Quest, so instead of a lesson I opened the floor to your questions. A shorter one this time, around 48 minutes, but a lot of practical ground covered, including with the question almost EVERY person on Substack asks me:
How do I organise my week around a 9–5 – I shared my exact schedule and some insights how to stay laser-focused.
We also discussed:
How long to wait before changing things
Automating Notes and reducing tool dependency
YouTube + Substack – how to repurpose videos into posts without losing the writing-first audience, how paywalled video posts and perks work, and where the checkout actually sends people.
And so much more.
The next round of the Quest Lives start in January and the price of the VIP membership goes up, so make sure you join before that if you haven’t already:
Until then:
Watch the recordings of all Quest Lives.
Get all of your one-pager worksheets with your assignment and checklists and the QUEST Sparring Partner & Coach Custom GPT in the Unplugged Toolbox (VIP version).
Then implement.
Because I’m looking forward to celebrating your next milestone and become my next case study.
