Welcome back to The Leverage Practice Podcast! In this episode, we are thrilled to announce the official launch of the Healthcare Impact Academy Membership. This is the first of it's kind - a game-changing opportunity for healthcare professionals to create and grow online programs, courses, groups and products with expert guidance, resources, and community support. What You'll Learn in This Episode: Why I decided to completely flip my business model and transition to a membership structure. The challenges healthcare professionals face when trying to start or grow online programs. How the Healthcare Impact Academy Membership breaks down barriers with accessible pricing and multiple support tiers. A full breakdown of what's included in the membership, from courses to live workshops to an all-in-one HIPAA-compliant software platform. How this membership will help you build a scalable, profitable business while maintaining work-life balance. Why This Membership? For over a decade, I've worked with health professionals - dietitians, doctors, mental health professionals, therapists, OT's, SLP's, PT's, and more to help them create, market, and sell online programs for their practice. This type of arm to their business has allowed 700+ clients to reduce their overall working hours, decrease 1:1 appointments and increase their income. One of the biggest challenges I've seen is the high cost of entry, with most traditional “business coaching” programs priced between $5,000 and $10,000 for only 6 months. While those investments can be valuable, many healthcare professionals hesitate due to the financial risk. As well, these kinds of programs give short term results, and we all know business takes years to develop to the level of success you desire. That's why I've designed the Healthcare Impact Academy Membership to make high-quality education, proven strategies, tools, and support accessible at a fraction of the cost of traditional coaching and courses. Enrollment is Open! (Limited Time Only) The membership is open for enrollment from Monday, February 24 through Friday, February 28 at midnight. This initial launch is focused on ensuring a smooth onboarding experience for new members, testing workflows, and refining the experience before scaling further. We already have 140 pre-registered members and aim to welcome 100 more this week, making this an incredible opportunity to be part of our founding group! What's Included? Extensive Course Library – Over 40+ micro-courses covering everything from lead magnets to program launches. Monthly Live Workshops – Action-focused sessions where you'll implement key strategies. Private Community Access – Connect with like-minded professionals, collaborate, and get support. All-in-One HIPAA-Compliant Software – Manage courses, sales pages, email marketing, and more—completely free with your membership. Support Tiers to Fit Your Needs: Standard Membership: Access to courses, community, and software. Premium Membership: Live Q&A calls and Monday-Friday tech support. VIP Membership: Small group coaching, hot seats, and deeper mentorship. Limited-Time Founder's Rate! For this launch, we're offering a 33% discount on the membership. This is your chance to lock in the lowest price and start building or scaling your online program today! Join Now Before Doors Close! Visit HealthcareImpactAcademy.com to learn more and sign up.

Welcome to The Nonlinear Library, where we use Text-to-Speech software to convert the best writing from the Rationalist and EA communities into audio. This is: CEA is hiring a Community Building Grants Associate (apply by 28 April), published by Naomi N on April 11, 2024 on The Effective Altruism Forum. We're looking for an ambitious, engaging, and strategic professional to join our Groups team at the Centre for Effective Altruism (CEA) as a Community Building Grants (CBG) Associate. As a CBG Associate, you'll be a key player in increasing the impact of our CBG program and shaping how the city & national groups community ecosystem evolves. The program currently provides over $2.5 million / year in support to local EA directors and is funding >20 FTE in 14 different locations. Examples of these locations include NYC, DC, London, the Netherlands, Australia, and India. These groups have led to several exciting outcomes including: Introducing AI safety to somebody and this leading them to take a role as a technical safety staff at Anthropic. Counterfactually leading to several group members becoming researchers at Rethink Priorities. Preparing members to start effective charities through the Charity Entrepreneurship program, for example Lafiya Nigeria that focuses on contraception access for women in Nigeria. Helping people enter key policy roles, both in the fields of AI and Biosecurity. They report that without their group these positions would not have been on their radar and they would probably not have been able to start working in these fields. Working as a grantee was crucial for taking up longtermist roles, such as Chief of Staff at Forethought, or to found organisations like the Impact Academy. We have the ambition to significantly improve the program and believe that some of our biggest wins in the past have come from seeding and incubating new groups. We're eager to experiment more with this approach. Your responsibilities will include: Conducting practical research into what makes top-performing city and national EA groups excel, translating your findings into concrete program improvements. Developing and leading an incubation program to seed new EA groups in promising locations by recruiting talent, vetting candidates, and providing support. We have some uncertainty about the incubation program, so this responsibility might change. Offering additional support to our current CBG grantees and non-funded city & national groups, including assisting them with hiring. Supporting our team's overall program strategy, evaluation processes, and grant assessments. About the team: As part of CEA's Groups team, you will work closely with, and report directly to, Naomi Nederlof, the CBG Manager. The Groups team cares deeply about both improving the world and maintaining a positive working environment. Is this you? You might be a good fit if: You have deep familiarity with core EA ideas You're skilled at tackling complex, open-ended projects You're passionate about doing impactful work in EA community building You have strong interpersonal skills to build relationships with grantees and stakeholders You're adaptable to shifting priorities as our program evolves You're self-driven and able to own projects end-to-end Preferably, you have experience in community organizing and have knowledge of existing EA groups What we're offering: Full-time role, option for remote work in GMT-6 to GMT+7 timezones Potential visa sponsorship to join our team in the Oxford office Estimated total compensation range of $66,000 - $122,540 (including 10% 401k contribution) Benefits like health insurance, professional development funds, parental leave, and more Anticipated start between June - October 2024 Thanks for listening.
