Creating Recurring Revenue with a Small Community

We’re diving into:
✅ How positive psychology can help you manage mental well-being while growing on social media
✅ Why engagement matters more than going viral—and how to attract the right audience
✅ The recurring revenue model—how to create a profitable membership without burnout
✅ The power of storytelling and why an email list is your biggest asset in long-term success
