Named in Inc.'s "Top 3 must attend personal development events."
It's been nice not actually being involved in the packaging at all and seeing that it's still working. The channel is just popping—we're about to break 300,000 subs. It's been exciting to see how the channel has just exploded.

We take on 3 new clients per quarter. We have this limit because we're building channels, not churning content. 2 spots available for Q1 2026.
The System
What Actually Changed
Every great channel needs three things: topics that resonate, packaging that stops the scroll and gets clicks, and hooks that earn the view. We built a system for all three.
We stopped guessing on topics
Every video idea now runs through research: what's working in the niche, what gaps exist, what the audience is actively searching for. No more "I feel like this would be good."
We made packaging impossible to ignore
Thumbnails designed to stop the scroll and get clicks. Titles that create curiosity without clickbait. Every element tested against what's proven to work.
We earned the first 60 seconds
The older, less-focused intros lost viewers before the content started. We rebuilt the hooks to earn attention, not assume it.
We made decisions weekly, not monthly
Every week: what worked, what didn't, what we're changing. No waiting for quarterly reviews while underperformers compound.
