"Just a few weeks into the course, I have begun crafting my personal brand, created and launched a functioning website"
• Before this Quest my life was… After taking this Quest I feel…
Before this program, I had virtually no online presence. I had social media accounts but didn’t post on any of them. I owned a domain name but had no functioning website. My LinkedIn profile had very few connections, and my confidence was at rock bottom.
Now, I’m setting up my Kajabi account and finalising my first course and community offerings.
• The reason I enrolled in this Quest… What I was hoping to achieve/learn was…
I joined to learn how to generate income online, but I gained so much more. I found clarity around my life purpose, restored hope and confidence after a difficult few years, and a renewed sense of enthusiasm. I now believe I can achieve some of the monumental goals I had once tried to reach from an empty cup. Now, I’m well on the way to serving from overflow.
• Reasons why I recommend this Quest…
Because it transforms your life. Truly.
• Areas of my life where I’ve noticed the biggest changes…
I now have a clear sense of direction, both personally and professionally.
• My top 3 takeaways or insights during/after the Quest are:
Use your Mindvalley membership! Throughout the Social Media Mastery course, I explored mini quests to deepen my understanding, gain clarity, and find direction.
Attend every class live. I did, and it made all the difference.
Relax and enjoy the journey. Don’t rush it, transformation unfolds in its own time.
• The biggest positive change(s) I’ve noticed are…
Before this Quest, I was at a crossroads in my business. I had never used social media for business, barely even personally (unless pinning on Pinterest counts, and maybe one Facebook post nine years ago!). Even in my volunteer work, my social media use was minimal. I felt completely overwhelmed.
Now, just a few weeks into the course and nearing the end of Level One, I have:
Identified my tribe
Begun crafting my personal brand
Created and launched a functioning website
Updated my LinkedIn profile
Written and published two blog posts (a first for me!)
People are starting to reach out and want to connect.
I’m setting up my camera and home studio, ready to begin recording for my YouTube channel, which I’ll repurpose into short-form content for other platforms.
By the end of this course, I aim to finish at least one (possibly two) of the books I’ve been writing for years. I’ll have published digital content and printables, and very soon, I hope to say that I’ve started earning money from them.
I feel truly empowered. And I know that by passing my wealth of knowledge forward, the impact will be tremendously positive, for me, my family, and my local community.
