There are four management systems I really wish I had learned about sooner—because let’s be honest, they would have saved me so much stress. Imagine how much easier life (and business) would be if we were actually taught emotional regulation skills, financial management, time management tools, and energy management back in school. Instead, we were left to figure it all out on our own, often learning the hard way. But here’s the good news: once you understand these four areas and how they work together, you can start managing your time, money, energy, and emotions in a way that...

In this episode of the Go Get Great podcast, I’m peeling back the curtain on my course business development journey—sharing exactly how I went from fully booked with 1:1 clients (and totally maxed out on time) to building a sustainable one-to-many model with online courses that generate income without needing me in the DMs 24/7.
We’re diving into the why behind creating a course, the mindset shifts you need to step into educator mode, and the actual tech and tools I use to make course creation online feel doable—not daunting. I’ll walk you through how to make a course in a way that serves your audience and your business goals.
We’ll also talk about the difference between dreaming of a course and actually getting it launched. Spoiler: you don’t need a fancy studio setup or a million slide decks. Simple is scalable.
If you’ve been stuck wondering which course creation platforms are worth investing in (Thinkific, Kajabi, ThriveCart—yep, I’ve tested them), how to organize your content, or how to start building your audience before your course is even done… this episode is your go-to roadmap.
Because building a course doesn’t need to be overwhelming—it just needs to be strategic.
