A quiet milestone worth celebrating ❤️
Today, my community welcomed its first paid member. Not overnight. Not in a big viral moment. But through consistency, patience, and staying the course. Here’s how it unfolded: - Community created: Oct 3 - First member joined: Oct 26 - 10 members by Nov 8 - 30 members by Jan 8 - First paid member: Jan 8 (they actually joined back on Nov 1) Progress doesn’t always look loud or fast, but it is happening, even when it feels invisible. If you’re building a community and wondering whether your efforts are landing… this is your reminder to keep showing up. To trust what you’re creating. To believe that the seeds you’re planting are taking root, even if you can’t see the full growth yet. Your vision is valid. Your consistency matters. And the community you’re dreaming of is already on its way. (Sharing a screenshot below as a little moment of proof + encouragement for anyone who needs it today.)
