This has to be the most grounded and approachable advice I’ve seen on growing organically on here. What I appreciate most, is that neither of you over-hyped your growth stories and strategies. Neither of you is presenting yourselves as know-it-alls.

It’s refreshing seeing creators who are early on but just a little further ahead than those of us newer to the platform, talk about how they’ve grown without the hustle culture. Sometimes when a larger account is giving advice, it can feel so out of reach. Seeing creators like yourselves gives evidence that it’s possible for the rest of those who are newer.

Truly a great colab and I enjoyed reading it!

Amy, I am sooo glad you enjoyed it. ❤️

I think we’re about as far from gurus as you can get, and I never want to be one, or even sound like one.

We all have our own story about why we joined Substack. I love that this article shows how two people from completely different backgrounds and life experiences ended up reaching the same conclusion.

Happy to have you here! ❤️
