🔒 How Do I Grow My Email List Without Social Media?

Today I’m bringing you something really special— A mini-coaching session where I answer a question about how to grow your email list before, during, and after leaving social media. The question comes from the wonderful Kate of Queen Bee Hormone Health who wrote to me and asked: "Thanks to Off the Grid, I’ve backed wayyyy off posting on social media. I feel so much better, but I'm really struggling to get people moved onto my email list and wondering what advice you have for this part of the process? I don’t want to just ghost everyone. But I’m ready to get off the platform."I share the question and a few thoughts here, but to hear exactly how I’d help Kate leave social media and grow her email list... you have to join the Clubhouse at offthegrid.fun/clubhouse! When you do, you'll get access to over 50 bonus episodes (and counting), curated tech + creative business newsletters, and more. Plus your own private podcast feed, comments threads, and behind-the-scenes updates on the show. Please join the Clubhouse to support the show! And find this specific episode here :)
