I am really disappointed when i came to know that you have blocked me on Twitter. Please forgive me if i was offensive in any of my action. Your thought process really helped my mind to clear and surpass the path of my journey. I would really be thankful if you keep me in your circle.
Every time you show up in my twitter feed I smile. I smile even more when it's an email. I am so thankful for the way you show up. You have so much to offer.
Ideally I'd suggest to make the most of one piece of content by adapting it both into article and newsletter form. Not a straight copy-paste but an adaptation that reads more personal in newsletter form.
It's a method that might potentially avoid burnout, yet keep your current schedule afloat.
And no, we won't forget you. I think the newsletter format really allows for your real fans to read/interact since a mailbox typcially is a place that people address with a lot of attention these aren't the same people that get bored and read another/ignore your newsletter. :)
For me, there is no need to reinvent the wheel. You could just share an article on those off weeks, or share it with a short preamble about whats up if you want to make it more personal. Come on, even with following you on Medium there's no seeing everything you post.
I also respect the desire not to sell too much to your email list, but you might be overcorrecting. In the last email I got from you, you deliberately didn't put a link to your offer after mentioning it. That's silly. Why would I mind a link if I don't want to click it? It's leaving money on the table or potentially inconveniencing someone who is interested.
I understand an every 3 week sale cycle might be a lot, but I hope you can find a middle ground and not stop selling totally to your email list. You deserve to make money and as a fellow business owner, I don't like any content philosophy that totally cuts out selling. There's no shame in trying to help people through paid offers, and women especially have to overcome a lot more shade around selling. Question it. My two cents.
Your comment hit me, Sofia. It's like you confronted my vulnerability and told me I shouldn't fear for no reason. Thank you for this, I've read this a few times since you commented.
I'm very happy about that. I see how much you do and I know having an email list is a financial investment. It's great to maximize what you can do with all the articles you write and with the email list you worked hard to build. Of course, balancing that with your values, too. I support whatever you choose to do! Huge hugs

You will not be forgotten, so lose that fear. Schedule in a manner that works for you, and adjust as needed.
Thanks for the support, John!

How kind of you! You're the best.
Do whatever feels right to you.

Thank you so much, Maclean! I appreciate your reassurance that you won't forget me, hehe :))
For sure.
Your writing and blunt delivery (writing and YT) is a much needed dose of reality sometimes! (I swear, I mean it in a good way!)

You could try it and evaluate. Perhaps it will work better for you. If not you can change back.
Thank you :)
Thank you for giving me your precious time, Olivia!
