✨I’m going live on Substack with Claire Venus .conscious, so if you’re feeling ready to wind down but not disappear this one’s for you.

✨Claire helps writers and creators build joyful, sustainable practices on Substack, and together we’ll talk about how to close your year with ease. Think scheduling posts (so you can actually rest), reflecting on what worked, and setting a gentle rhythm for the year ahead.

🎁 There’s no “push through the holidays” energy here, just practical ways to give yourself space and stay connected to your readers. Bring your notebook, your tea, and any questions about planning or scheduling your Substack posts.

“I had turned into a volunteer in my unintentional nonprofit business.”

That’s how Belinda Rosenblum described her second year as an entrepreneur.

She made $155,000 in revenue.
She took home $2,000.

“Everybody else was getting paid. I wasn’t.”

The problem wasn’t her clients or her work ethic.

It was the lack of a plan to pay herself.

I see this pattern with authors building their platforms too.
We obsess over subscriber counts, open rates, and follower numbers—metrics that look impressive but don’t necessarily translate to sustainable creative careers.

So I’m asking directly:
Regardless of how much your business makes…
Who here isn’t paying themselves properly?

💬 Something tells me we’re not alone in this.

⬇️ Watch the clip in stories — then check out the full talk:

Belinda and I dove into:
— The feast-or-famine cycle that traps creators
— Why QuickBooks isn’t enough
— How to price yourself with confidence
— What it takes to actually pay yourself

has opened the doors to CashFlow CEO this week. And the Offer Intensive is a bonus until midnight 10/21!

💰From $0 months to consistent clients — but my cash flow still sucked.

Last summer, I had a solid revenue month.

But then I checked my personal account and thought, “Wait... where did it go?”

🤷🏻‍♀️Turns out, making money and paying yourself consistently are two very different skills.

I worked with business coach Belinda Rosenblum () in her Offer Intensive and created my “Set Up Your Substack in 14 Days” offer — and it's been bringing in clients ever since.

But managing cash flow? That’s a whole other game.

This week, I’m taking her free 4-part masterclass: Your Rich Business Era (yes, a nod to T- Swift, and yes, I’m here for it 💸).

Here’s what she’s diving into:
💵 The money leaks draining your bank account

💵 Why you still undercharge (even when you know better)

💵 A system for consistent monthly income without more clients or hours

If you’re a writer, coach, or solopreneur building income from your expertise — this is the stuff we were never taught.

These FREE Live sessions are on Oct 9, 14, 16, and 20th.

I’ll be there taking notes. Want in?
