Rob shared a story I can't stop thinking about: a creator friend who never bought from him ended up referring more than $30,000 in client business. 🤯

But here's the important part: Rob didn't build that friendship hoping for a referral.

That's what I want to hear from you about. Has a connection you made on Substack opened a door you never expected? Maybe it led to a collaboration, a referral, a friendship, or something completely different.

Tell Rob and me your story in the comments and if someone helped make it happen, give them a shout-out! 💜👑

I’m not dead, so I must be ok.😆🤣 I have so many one-liners from Jess. I’m going to write an article about it. It will be called Mindset, but a bit different.

Jess is straight up the Mindset Queen. I was dying that entire time. My abs are still sore. But the best part is how legit the advice actually is.

Jess is undefeated 🫡

She needs to write a mindset book. It will be a New York bestseller.

Man, I used to be so judgmental too. But the people I end up liking most are so often people I don't expect it to be.

Definitely! Just like doing any type art or something creative, you have to spend a lot of time thinking on your idea before you start. Just like a creative relationship takes time to form.

Love that. Give the person space to be who they are. If that's what you like and vibe with, sweet. And goes both ways.
