Behind the scenes of business
Ask me anything : Taking time off, money transparency, and writing time
Dear reader,
In taking the month of October off of writing my newsletter, facilitating Landscapes, teaching, and using social media I want to share the transparent metrics of my business. Sharing them with you today and again on Saturday November 1.
What are the financial, social, and energetic impacts of taking a month away from the channels you use to tell people you exist? I have never walked away from all channels for more than a week in the last twelve years. This is a huge experiment and I couldn’t do it without your devoted readership and support.
Shared below is a handful of transparent income and promotional metrics : How many free and paid subscribers this newsletter has before the break, how many people are currently in Landscapes, projected income for Look About You, details about my next book, how I am getting paid, and more!
I will also include what sort of promotional efforts I will be doing in the next few days to gear up for a month away from selling channels.
I am working to heal my shame around being a higher earner than the generations before me. In an attempt to release the shame I share these numbers trusting that you can read them with your own grounded energy intact.
A reminder about what you don’t see : my tax debt, my student loans, my mortgage, where any of my money goes, who else I support with that money, and how much it costs to run my business.
For this newsletter I will also be answering any questions in the comments. It is my hope that this demystifies some of the structures and shapes of self employment. Ask me anything about this break!
