In this video, I am sharing with you where I am at in my subscription building & launch journey, as well as how I am using AI. I'll admit, I was not the quickest to jump onto the AI bandwagon. I've always thought that sure, AI can be useful, but the human touch cannot be replaced. And I actually still stand very firm on this believe. However, I learned that I can use AI to support my subscription launch in a way that doesn't take over MY ROLE in developing a person-centred service. In order to offer support prior to the launch of this subscription, I have created a free mini-training to help you... 1️⃣ Determine why you feel ‘behind' 2️⃣ Redefine success based on what's most important to you now 3️⃣ Embrace progress at your own pace Click here to get your free training to break free from the guilt loop!

Each person knows the story they want to tell; all they need is someone to listen it out of them.Two. When we listen the story out of another we do so with respect, delight, and appreciation.Three. Listening out the story in this way awakens the creative intelligence of the storyteller.Story Prompt: What rebirth are you listening for?

DESPITE my people NOT riding for ME or MINE. I've ALWAYS rode for them. Especially, in the dark. Because I love the people, well the youth. I KNOW this system and how they play. I got the game from Montana. I really soaked it in and ate it up. I made sure that HATE they fed me became everything they would be scared of but not in a physical sense. More of an idea, they can't comprehend or touch. See, I had to be better on SoOo many levels. Financial is the LOWEST level. That's where Montana resides. Even below that. It's the PRINCIPLE. It's not being petty or not being able to let things go. It's the fact that who you are in the dark is who you are. You CAN'T act as if you're a good person when you're not. MY PEOPLE get crucified for that but for european americans it's a way of life. Make that make LOGICAL sense. Remember, you aren't god and YOU don't have the right to judge as so. See, I'm an associate of Creators. I was appointed certain jobs by them. I'm more than qualified to speak on what I speak on because I was shown by Creators for this reason. I've walked the path that they created for me, EVEN WHEN I DIDN'T WANT TO. I played MY ROLE and followed the rules & laws that they asked me to. I showed them TRUE loyalty and HUMANITY. I showed them some of us ARE different and respect Humanity. Some of us have a Code of Conduct….
‘You cannot heal in the same environment that made you sick.' A self-protection strategy, setting boundaries in a controlling relationship dictates the behavior you are or are not willing to tolerate. Making the decision to go no contact is rarely an easy one. In this week's episode, I explore boundaries, how I discovered them and how that ultimately led to my decision to go no contact with my narcissistic parent. 0:00 Intro 0:42 What is a Boundary? 3:48 Setting My First Boundary 5:04 Navigating Boundaries After I Moved Out 7:34 My Role and Responsibilities in the Family Dynamic 11:01 You Can't Reason with Unreasonable People 12:54 The Stress of Interactions with Unresolved Trauma 14:22 Opportunities to do the Right Thing 19:29 The Emotionally Unskilled Family and the Start of my Healing Journey 22:20 My Decision to go No Contact 26:11 Tying Myself to an Uncomfortable Conversation 28:35 How Setting Boundaries Has Helped Me 29:47 The Ups and Downs of the Healing Journey 31:53 Developing My Sense of Self 32:54 Outro --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/itsnotnormal/support

Last week on the Pop Uncultured Podcast, we randomly stumbled into a luxurious, golden treasure horde the likes of which we haven't seen since PlasmaMasterDon. She's so good, that we've pretty much abandoned old diddling Donny altogether. This goofy Australian church lady - who we shall continue to refer to in the description/title as "V" for now - is a dingbat of the highest order. She wears many hats, when she should really be considering a helmet. Her website offers services ranging from video editing to creative writing to social work to psychic readings...the latter is where we landed, the former is where we're going.For nothing but a couple of jpegs, JY and I were able to get a thorough and extensive psychic reading from this "gifted" soothsayer, and on this episode we reveal the contents of them in totality. Under the guise of gay, betrothed life partners, we are shown a mirror to our very souls, which may be in serious danger (mostly JY's though). Join us as our deepest, darkest secrets are revealed, laid bare for all to see. The vulgar philistines vs the goofball psychic, you don't wanna miss this one, people.Don't worry, we watch a few of her videos as well. No episode of the PUP would be complete without a couple of boors yelling over deeply demented media.Timestamps10:40 My Role as a Psychic Medium (The Documentary) by V https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PuBmzZX9uq832:38 Psychic teacup search on Etsy (great stuff here) https://www.etsy.com/market/psychic_teacup41:32 We begin discussing our psychic readings and my correspondence with V47:05 Dram's psychic reading begins (song used: Hate by Lucas King https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rQym6uQcUmA&pbjreload=101)1:14:13 JY's psychic reading begins (song used: I Feel Love [Almighty Mix] by Donna Summer https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5LU5-ZxHmvQ)1:37:50 Children's Show demo clip by V https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=unNr-r2Ol3U1:42:47 Praise Lord JESUS by V https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=COyJarALIpk1:53:18 Happy Birthday the Video by V (mature audiences only!!!) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IafVM1oUPj4

Before I get to today's episode, I wanted to let you know that I'm creating a beta sales page design course starting August 17, and you can get access for free in exchange for a testimonial. All you have to do is go to http://melissaburkheimer.com/betacourse, fill out the application and get ready to build your sales page! I wanted to talk to you today about my process and strategies for I use when I work with my 1:1 clients on sales page designs. When I get on new connection calls and potential client calls, the most commonly asked question I get is “how do you get sales page clients” and “what platform should I use” and “can you just show me how to design sales pages please!!!” So, I'm going to breakdown all of that and more. How I got my first sales page client In episode 001, The Opener, I tell the story about how I got my first sales page project. The short version of that story is that a FB friend I connected with in the online space posted saying that he needed a graphic designer. I raised my hand, we connected, and I ended up getting 1 of 2 available design gigs. Back then I was working with local clients on an as-needed basis, and this was my first time even knowing that a sales page was a thing. After two months of working with him on multiple design projects, his friend hired me to do a couple of sales pages, and then his friend referred me to a lot of people in his rolodex because of 2 reasons: I did what I said I was going to do when I said I was going to do it. The designs I was creating for them got them results. Six months later, I had my first $5K month, and by then I stopped working with my local clients. This was May 2014. So since then, I've worked on dozens of launches as a launch manager, sales page designer, and strategic partner that have generated multiple 7 figures in revenue. I decided to Specialize in Sales Page Design in 2014 Fast forward to today, it's August 2020, sales pages are still the most profitable offer I have, and the easiest to sell, and always make a big impact for my clients. Every time I work with a client, I find a hole in my process and I patch it. The one thing that's true for every single client I worked with is that they always have a top notch experience, and that's a huge priority for me. I say that to tell you that I've learned a lesson on every single project, and that I use each lesson to make myself and my business better. Sometimes going through it or having those conversations isn't easy. One time a client had hired a sales page copywriter before I got involved, (this was 2016), and back then I didn't really review the copy before I started designing. I more saw myself as a designer, not a copywriter. The night before we were supposed to go to development, on a really tight timeline, I realized that this sales page was not going to get the client the results they wanted because the offer was not being presented clearly. I had to have a difficult conversation with the client, because I knew them and their business since 2013, but I knew anyone looking at this sales page might be confused. She understood and was able to update the copy and we got the page done, but like I said, I encourage you to look at instances like this where it could seem difficult, but it was needed if I wanted them to have the best results possible using my designs. So here's how it looks today, and I'll break this up in four phases for you, so you can steal the four phase system for your client projects. Phase 1: Interest / Inquiry If someone is interested, maybe they reach out via Instagram or FB messenger or email, and then I always say thank you, and send them to my sales page for my sales page design service. I built that page in 2016 - Lacy Boggs helped me write the copy, and other than a few adjustments, it's worked really well for me. At the bottom of the page, there's one inquiry button. That's on purpose. I don't take on a ton of clients anymore, so I want the ones I work with to be serious and actually at least scroll to the bottom of the page. I could do an entire episode about the sales page itself, (if you're interested in that, send me a DM on Instagram and I'll make it happen) but it does it's job of explaining my process, how I work, and showing samples of my work, and more. Once they click the inquiry button, it takes them to a page with questions about their project. I talk about those questions in episode 16, so you can listen to that episode to get the skinny on why I use them. The questions on the page now have shifted since I recorded that episode, but I can tell pretty quickly if that person's answers if they're going to be a good fit. After I get the message, I invite them to schedule a call with me using a call scheduling tool called Calendly. That way it saves a bunch of back and forth communication about time scheduling, and I've actually arranged my calendar so I only do calls on Tuesday's and Thursday's, saving Monday's and Friday's for VIP Digital Sales Strategy days with clients and Wednesdays for working on my business. On the actual call, I introduce myself, ask them about their launch strategy, make suggestions (I learned this in episode 27 with Natalie McGuire - it helps position me as an expert) go through my slide deck + my process, and then talk dates, cost, and answer any questions. From there, I send a custom proposal for them to review. Once they say yes, then I send a contract for electronic signature + Invoice for the first payment (I do 50% down and 50% before I deliver the final design file). This is a manual process, but I use a template for the contract, invoice and proposal so it's easy to update. I plan to update this process and automate most of it in Q4. My intention in Q4 is to systematize the heck out of my business. Phase 2: Onboarding + Draft Design Process I walked you through some of my onboarding process - but before I get started on a project, I ask for all of the design assets I need. Think about the course brand guide + logo, colors, photos, fonts, any previous design files they want me to work off of. I also review the copy before we get started - and sometimes even connect with the copywriter before the project gets started to say hi and talk about the process. Then, we get started with the first few sections of the sales page. I usually have team design 2-3 first drafts and then we work on those for a few days until they're ready for the client to review. Sometimes the client will review on a live call with me, or send me feedback via Trello or the PM app we're using. It's 100% mandatory that we use a project management app dedicated to the sales page for feedback. I will 100% not accept feedback via email, text, FB message or any other way. Communication for all projects can easily get lost, and when you have 5000-10000 words on a page with multiple design revisions and development, it can be easy for mistakes to happen, and I'm not in the business of making mistakes. My design company offers a premium service. I personally pay for the editor, because I used to do this myself and it hurts my brain. This allows me to focus on my zone of genius, which is the design, the UX, the flow and the overall page itself, and the proofreading is something I can outsource to an expert. Phase 3: Design Production It may take a few try's + rounds to get the first few sections of the sales page right - the way both the client and I like it, and from there, we move really fast on designing the page. My team uses Photoshop to design sales pages - and sometimes the document is so big we have to break it up into two files so my clients can preview them. All of our sections are grouped in their own folder in the layers section, which makes it really easy to develop and edit. During the design production phase, my editor is double checking the copy to see which copy makes it to the page, and I'm also checking and directing my team to make design edits while the client provides feedback. The entire design process can take up to two weeks - give or take depending on the timeline originally planned and when the launch is. I know some people who will design + develop an entire sales page in a day - which is awesome, but it's not something that would work well for my process. I've started taking on VIP Day Clients (after being nudged so many times by my friend Jordan) but we focus on really making sure their digital sales strategy is awesome. We do our final reviews on my side and the client side, and my editor also does her final spidey check. And then, we hand the PSD over to both the client and the developer to develop. Phase 4: Development It's important for me to point out that my company does not offer any type of development services. We do something better - and that's collaborate with developers who are experts at sales page design, UX, mobile experience and more so that the designs I make for people actually look like the PSD, and work everywhere. I'm different than most designers in the fact that I stay involved in the development process. We've created a process for success by having a conversation with the developer, pre-scheduling our timeline, implementing reviews of sizing and spacing before the page is done, and allowing for enough edits to make sure all the My clients pay a separate fee to the development company - and my directing the development is included int he cost of my process, and it's not an option for me to not be involved in the development process because I can't guarantee the quality of the page. There are some cases where I know the client and they have someone on their team who can check this, but at the end of the day, I want them to have someone who can support them in a tech crisis (it happens) and who is an expert at what they do. During the process my editor also gives the page a final sweep - while I'm checking in on things. My Role in the Sales Page Process I go over this on my sales calls and it's really clear on my sales page. I serve as the creative director, launch strategist, project manager, designer and quality control. I'm not just a designer who does something and moves on. And by doing this, I'm able to provide a really high quality service for my clients, and get them awesome results. I have an editor and multiple designers on my team who work with me on specific projects, but I'm really proud of this service, how it helps my clients, and how it's still the most profitable service and the easiest one to sell. :) If you have any additional questions - please send me a DM on Instagram - you can find me over there @melissaburkheimer.

Angela Glover Blackwell, founder in residence at Policylink, and host of the new Radical Imagination Podcast, joins Chevon and Hiba to talk about her longtime work as a leading voice in the movement for equity and racial justice. In this conversation, Angela talks about the “racial moment” we are currently living, and challenges us to think radically in creating narratives that will lead to concrete solutions. Drawing on a lifetime of experience as an activist, Angela provides a reframing of “hopelessness” in this moment in the U.S., and inspires us to use the moment as an opportunity for important social change. We introduce our brand new Colorlines series “Who Do We Think We Are” by Race Forward’s Senior Fellow, Rosana Cruz that is timely in the wake of the recent “American Dirt” book controversy. Hiba sits with Rosana for a conversation about the creation of the series, and their experience interviewing Latinx-identified movement leaders, artists, and cultural innovators about how they define themselves racially. Hiba and Chevon also discuss the former ‘Biggest Loser’ trainer Jillian Michaels and her recent comments on Lizzo’s body image, Lizzo’s response and self-affirmations, and place Michaels’ comments in the context of systemic racism, anti-blackness, and fatphobia.

Perhaps the most frequent question I get asked is, “How do I show up in this moment?” To help us answer that is the amazing Katie Loncke of Buddhist Peace Fellowship, one of the most throw-down, committed activists I know. But what makes her unique is that she’s as committed to who she’s being as to what she’s doing. Katie helped create “Build Block Be,” a holistic framework for how we respond that acknowledges and celebrates all of our unique roles, strategies, and medicine as necessary and essential for how we bring forth collective liberation.Buddhist Peace FellowshipWhat’s My Role in the Revolution? - Buddhist Peace Fellowship CourseKatie on InstagramIf this episode resonates for you, we’d love for you to take a screenshot and tag us on Instagram stories @ctznwell and @katieloncke, and click below to tweet:"You're perfect just as you are, and you could use a little improvement." @buddhistpeace's @kloncke quotes Suzuki Roshi on #CTZN Podcast with @kkellyyoga @ctznwell ctznwell.org/ctznpodcast"I won't take sides, but I'll resist injustice." @buddhistpeace's @katieloncke on how she shows up in her activism - and the nuances of peaceful activism that centers justice and liberation. Hear her convo with @kkellyoga on #CTZN Podcast from @ctznwell ctznwell.org/ctznpodcastMore about this episode:Katie invites us to consider the quieter instruments of our activism. She imagines a different kind of politics: one that is irrepressible rather than forceful, steady and sustained with the patience of the ocean that erodes the cliff side. While we at times chant “no justice no peace” in outrage at a system that refuses to listen, Katie asks us to not underestimate peace, and to lean into the listening that it brings so that we can Be more effective in how we Block and Build together.Block is how we confront systemic harm, Build is how we create connection and collaborative tools, and Be is how we cultivate a capacity and resilience to show up for what’s needed.This conversation gave me hope, not just for what is possible, but for how it can feel and who we can Be together.Join Katie and me, along with our friend Carinne Luck, on Monday 11/25/19 at 8ET/5PT for a free online meet-up about Build Block Be and how to use it at the family holiday table to keep your peace without shrinking in silence.

If we are not intentional about keeping Christ at the center of everything we will find something to put there. If you're a Christian you should care about everything because of the Imago Dei and if not, you should fight to view all of it as important. We need to get out of the identity of our camps and figure out what the meaning of a real Christian is. The intentionality of the gospel is the restoration of a relationship that was eternally severed. Everyone's perspective is valid and it is, by definition, incomplete. The solution is knowing people. A prayer before confronting another's perspective: In this moment, Lord, give me grace to listen and wisdom to know if I should say something and if so, what that something should be. We are all different and that is fine. It is beautiful. We should elevate the gospel above all else. Related Material: The Way (song) My Role in Racial Reconciliation (blog post)
