Episode 140: Course Creator Success Stories: Conversations with the Artists from The Original League
In this episode, I bring back the OG League members and have a roundtable discussion with Cat Rains, Drew Steinbrecher, Roben-Marie Smith, Delight Rogers, and Brooke (BB) Henry. It was soooo good to catch up with them - where they are now, what's inspiring them, and what they have learned from being in business for quite awhile now. You'll also be glad to know that they are all quite successful and doing really well!
Together, they explore what success really looks like, what it takes to build a thriving creative business, and how focusing on one clear offer (the “Rule of One”) can lead to big, meaningful results. This episode is packed with wisdom, inspiration, and proof that artists helping artists creates a ripple effect that transforms lives. Whether you’re just starting out or ready to scale, you’ll walk away with motivation to keep going and a reminder that the work you’re doing matters.
A little intro for those of you who are new:
