Popping into your inbox earlier than usual today to drop a special reminder that it’s not too late to sign up for and join today’s AMA with Kevin Powell - Saron will be going live with Kevin at 11:30 AM PT/ 2:30 PM ET and talking all things growth, content creation and the business that is Kevin Powell. 

It has been a treat looking through the questions registrants are submitting; here are some of our favorites so far: 

  • How do you combat burnout when you have to keep the content machine going?

  • If you were getting started on YouTube again or with a new channel what would you focus on to hit your watch time faster?

  • 900K subscribers on YouTube WOW. What was the journey in getting there? Was it linear, or did it happen in bursts? Did you always know it was going to happen? 

  • How do people focus on being a multihyphenate without getting sucked into hustle culture? How do you seek mentorship and support for when your motivation is low/ burnout/ overburdened schedule

Yes, there will be a replay and yes, it will be shared with registrants- so make sure to sign up, even if it’s just to catch the replay later in your inbox! 

See you in the AMA shortly ❤️

🎥YouTube is hot on our minds right now (👀Kevin Powell AMA event in two hours!), and this is a great step-by-step guide to growing in a niche on the platform.

🫠Content creation can be draining when it’s not landing - a good reminder in case you happen to be in your flop era (in content or otherwise).

🛠️This is a great little hub of tools if you happen to write a newsletter. I especially like the resources listed in the directories, advertisements, and communities section.
