Build Your Substack in One Session—From Unstuck to Published Workshop
Create your Substack publication step-by-step in one 90-minute intensive workshop.
Most people who want to start a Substack don’t struggle because they lack ideas.
They struggle because they get stuck at the beginning.
They start overthinking things like:
the publication name and logo.
the niche and categories.
the custom domain.
the first article.
whether or not they should turn on paid subscriptions.
All of it starts to feel bigger and more complicated than it actually is.
If you’ve been meaning to start a Substack, but haven’t launched yet, this session is designed to fix that in one focused evening.
Two weekends ago, I hosted a small live workshop called From Unstuck to Published, where I walked attendees through building their Substack publication step-by-step from scratch.
The goal was simple:
Leave the session with your publication built and ready to post.
And the feedback from the first group was exactly what I hoped for.
“Last one was great! Thanks for all the helpful advice!”
“Great job, Jess. I learned a lot.”
Because of that, I’m hosting Round 2 this Friday at 7PM EST!
What This Workshop Is
From Unstuck to Published is a live working session where we build your Substack publication together in real time.
This isn’t a lecture or a long webinar.
It’s a hands-on build session.
So, please bring your laptop!
During the workshop, we will walk step by step through the core pieces of building your publication, including:
Choosing a clear publication name without overthinking it.
Defining your publication description in one sentence.
Learning how the Substack paywall works.
Selecting categories intentionally.
Creating a clean, modern publication logo concept.
Establishing visual direction that feels professional.
Determining a structured publishing schedule.
By the end of the session, you will have your Substack publication fully built and ready to publish.
Who This Workshop Is For
This workshop is for:
Creators who want to launch a Substack, but feel stuck.
Professionals who want to turn their expertise into a publication asset.
Writers who want structure and clarity instead of overthinking and hesitation.
Anyone ready to move from thinking to publishing without overwhelm.
If you’ve been circling the idea of starting a Substack, but haven’t taken the first step, this workshop will help you move from thinking to publishing.

Final Thoughts
Starting a Substack doesn’t need to take weeks of planning.
Sometimes all you need is a focused session and the right structure to move forward.
If you want to build your Substack correctly from day one, I’d love to work through it with you live.
