Here's a note I wrote today about an experiment I'll be doing over the next week about finding my voice on Substack: https://substack.com/@themidlifeshift0/note/c-344623394?r=83yjn

Hey everyone. My latest note is about that quiet restlessness that eventually makes us wonder what we actually want for ourselves.

Today, I complete my 60 days on Substack. Here are 6 lessons (which many hide behind paywall). 15.2K views, 203 subs, 298 followers. Organic in 60 days - https://thechintannpsheth.substack.com/p/152-k-views-298-followers-organic?r=4h6od2&utm_campaign=post-expanded-share&utm_medium=web

This is smart because it turns engagement into a repeatable system instead of something you remember to do β€œwhen you have time.”

But the key is quality.

Don’t just drop your link and disappear.

Use the routine like this:

share your Note

read 5 others

leave 3 genuinely useful comments

restack 1 you actually believe deserves more reach

follow anyone whose work you genuinely want to keep seeing

come back later and reply to people who engaged with you

Useful newsletter lesson:

Engagement compounds when it creates relationships, not just metrics.

A like may help for a moment.

A real connection can lead to:

recommendations collaborations repeat readers paid subscribers years of mutual support

Use the challenge for distribution.

But use the people in it to build a network.

Amazon blocked Muse, Meta's shopping agent, on Sunday night. On Monday, Shopify's chief executive said Muse will get Shop Pay checkout on every Shopify store.

My call: by 31 March 2027, another top-10 US online retailer will announce a new block on an AI shopping agent, or new rules making agents identify themselves. 60%.

It's one of six dated calls in the first Durability Curve Weekly. I'll grade them all in public, misses included.

Hi Yana! Happy Saturday, everyone! Link to a recent message that I saw while on a quick walk: https://substack.com/@asseenbyjennie/note/c-345278432?r=h1fap&utm_medium=ios&utm_source=notes-share-action

A timely reminder for today and every day!

Am I allowed to suggest a notes challenge? What if we all did this with the word Substack? You could keep or change the words- up to you. But tag your people. This is a quick and easy way to shout them out and contribute to the community vibe here! ;)
