The Real Growth Happened When I Stopped Listening to Everyone Else...

A spotlight session with Kathleen Thorne: From zero to almost 1,000 subscribers in under a year

I’m more than excited to share with you the second Spotlight Session with

. We just had a heartfelt and raw conversation, no script, no predefined questions, just the two of us.

She is a holistic RN, Substack creator, and two-time Notes Challenge winner who’s growing her health-focused newsletter from the ground up while caregiving full-time and navigating her own family’s cancer journey.

She’s doing it with grit, grace, and more clarity than most online “strategists” half her age.

Watch the video to hear her story and learn:

  • How she grew her Substack from zero to almost 1,000 subscribers in under a year

  • What’s different about her wellness approach, and why you’ll NEVER hear her say “just take this for your symptoms”

  • Why she believes commitment comes before consistency, and how it saved her momentum during a personal crisis

  • What role AI and the personalized ChatGPT I made for her (as she is my VIP member) play in her creative process

“The Real Growth Happened When I Stopped Listening to Everyone Else... “ she says.

You’ll also get a behind-the-scenes look at:

  • Her experience with the VIP program (yes, she’s the one editing voice texts into essays inside her personalized GPT I made for her)

  • How she’s creating digital products based on what her readers are actually asking for (genius!)

  • The mistake that slowed her growth, and what helped her bounce back fast

Watch the interview till the end for a powerful perspective on mindset, healing, and what makes real content stand out in a world full of noise.
