You’ve outgrown the hustle, the scripts, and the sales tactics that make you feel small.
You’re ready to lead — visibly, powerfully, and profitably.

I mentor conscious women entrepreneurs to build businesses where visibility feels safe, sales feel clean, and wealth feels natural.

Because leadership isn’t about performing.
It’s about presence.
It’s about resonance.
It’s about trusting yourself to be seen, heard, and well-paid for your brilliance.

My signature coaching programs + masterminds help you:
✨ Become magnetic to aligned opportunities through embodied visibility
✨ Sell with self-trust and conscious strategies (not burnout or bro tactics)
✨ Lead yourself and others with integrity, authority, and ease
✨ Use LinkedIn as your tool for more visibility and impact.

Visibility is liberation. Sales is self-trust. Leadership is legacy.

I manifested everything I wanted in 2025...
Except the ONE thing I wanted most.

2025 gave me *almost* everything I asked for.

-Traveled to 3 countries
-Experienced more joy and expansion
-Deepened friendships
-Grew the business by over 130% when many people said the industry  got “harder”

As I look back on my vision board for 2025, I hit every single thing I set out to do…

EXCEPT the thing I wanted the most, becoming a mom.

This year reminded me of something I knew but forgot:

Having a big goal or desire doesn't mean you get it on the timeline you want.

That try as I might, I can’t control everything. 
(so annoying for a controlling Type A gal like me to accept!) 

It means you learn how to hold what come...with integrity, softness, and truth.

This year I celebrated, rested, played, and led more than ever before. 
I crossed financial milestones I’m deeply proud of.

Surpassing $1M cash felt so surreal as this was a goal I had written down years ago and I remember it feeling so impossibly far away.

Now I know I’ll hit my next million in half the time.
I also hiked, traveled, danced, loved, and let myself feel alive.

And I also sat with disappointment in the place that mattered most to my heart.

Both are true. Both belong.

If your year didn’t turn out how you imagined, you’re not behind. 
You’re not broken.

You’re BECOMING.

Here’s to honoring what was, grieving what wasn’t, and stepping into the next chapter with an open heart. 🤍

✨ What did 2025 teach you? 

One of my favorite things in 2025 was traveling to Costa Rica where the sunsets, food, and connections with fellow entrepreneurs, women, and mammas filled up my cup.

I'll never forget the month I hit $30K for the first time.

On paper, it should have been a celebration. It felt great for my ego.

But instead, I was sitting at my kitchen table, staring at my calendar with a total pit in my stomach

...and I started crying.

Because I realized I had built a cage.

- My calendar was wall-to-wall 1:1 calls. 
- I was delivering multiple programs.
- I was responding to DMs at 10pm because I didn't want anyone to think I wasn't available.

I was making more money than I ever had before.

And I was also more exhausted 😮‍💨 than I'd ever been.

That's when I realized:

What got me to $30K months was the EXACT thing that was going to cap me from ever hitting $50K or $100K months.

- The hustle. 
- The over-delivering. 
- The people-pleasing. 
- The "I'll accept whatever client wants to pay me" mentality.

And the real tricky this is...it worked. Until it didn't

But it wasn't going to get me to the level of freedom that I truly craved.

(bc, I don't know about you...but I didn't leave my 9-5 just to create another one)

I had to make a choice:

Keep going the way I was going and burn out completely. (this option sounded terrible)

OR...restructure everything so I could scale without sacrificing my life.

I chose the second option.

- I restructured my offers & focused on scalable offeres
- I set boundaries even though my inner people-pleaser was screaming.
- I repositioned for self-led clients instead of ones who needed me to hold their hand through every decision.

And that's when everything changed.

I went from $30K months that felt like hell to $50K, $70K, $100K+ launches that felt light.

Because I wasn't trading time for money anymore.

I was building offers that could scale.

That's what we're doing in the challenge.

January 26th-29th. It's free. It's LIVE. 

I'll even be reviewing your group programs & offers so that you can grow and scale without the burnout badge of honor.

P.S Is there a better feeling than getting new brand photos?!

Everyone wants visibility, but they don't want what comes with being seen.

If you're someone who is creating a brand on LinkedIn this year, this post is for you.

Have you ever seen a lighthouse apologize for being too bright?

Of course not.
It doesn't dim itself just because a few ships might criticize the glare.
It stands tall, beam blazing, built to guide the right ships home.

That's you.
Your visibility?
It isn't even about you.
It's about the people searching for your light, hoping for a sign it's safe to step forward.

Here's the uncomfortable truth... you're being judged no matter what you do.

You can play small, or play big.
You can hide in the background, or take up space.
It doesn't matter,you still get judged.

So why not get judged for being unapologetically real?

I see women shrink themselves every day online.

They worry about being "too much," offending someone, pushing a little too far.

But playing small doesn't protect you from criticism.
It just guarantees you stay invisible to the people who need you most.

Think about your clients.

If you're playing it safe, dialing yourself down to fit in, what do they learn from you?

You're telling them it's dangerous to step up.
You're signaling that shining is risky.

Every time you dim your light, you're not just hiding yourself.
You're giving everyone permission to play small too.

Let's be real: judgment isn't a loss of love.
It's a side effect of leadership.

The loudest critics?
Almost never the people steps ahead of you.
Truly successful women clap for other women shining.

You being bold gives everyone watching a permission slip to do the same.

Stop shrinking.
Stop waiting for approval from people who will never understand your mission.

There are people out there,right now,desperate for your kind of light.

So show up.
Be the fucking lighthouse.

Who's with me?
Repost for other creators who needs this reminder.

Before coaching, I was a sales consultant.

I trained thousands of sellers at LinkedIn. I sold multi-six and seven-figure consulting contracts at a major consulting company.

I was good at sales. Really good.

But here's what I didn't realize until later:

I was selling from proving. Not power.

I thought if I just worked harder than everyone else, over-delivered more than everyone else, sacrificed more than everyone else - I'd be successful.

And it worked. For a while.

I built my coaching business to consistent $25K months.

But I was trapped.

Trapped in the identity of the hustler coach. The coach who thought struggle was a badge of honor.

That's when I realized:

I wasn't building the business I wanted. I was building a business of proving.

And proving doesn't scale.

So I had to make a shift.

From hustler to conscious leader.

From pressure to presence.

From chasing to being chosen.

And that shift changed everything.

I went from capped income to $100K+ launches.

I went from saying yes to anyone with a pulse and a credit card to only working with clients who inspire me. Excite me. Expand me.

I went from exhausting my clients are to energy-giving clients.

That's the shift we're making in my 4 day challenge starting on the 19th January.

From proving to power.

From hustler to conscious leader.

Comment the word CHALLENGE if you would like to join.

Most people are building LinkedIn brands that will never make them money.

They're posting daily. 
Chasing follower counts. 
Celebrating vanity metrics.

And wondering why their DMs aren't converting to dollars.

I spent years inside LinkedIn as a Sales Enablement Consultant. Then built my own brand that's generated $1M+ in revenue.

Here's what most people get wrong about LinkedIn in 2026:

🚫 What doesn't work anymore:
- Posting 5x a day hoping something sticks
- Generic motivational quotes that could be on Instagram
- Building a "personal brand" without a clear monetization strategy
- Celebrating 10K followers when you can't convert 10 clients

✅ What actually builds a monetizable brand:

1. Content that converts. Every post should either educate your buyer, build trust, or move them toward a purchase decision.

2. Engagement depth over width. LinkedIn's 2026 algorithm rewards meaningful conversations. 50 engaged prospects beat 5,000 passive followers.

3. Positioning precision. "Business coach" won't cut it. "I help female coaches scale from $50K to $500K without working 70-hour weeks" will.

4. Prioritizing revenue-driving metrics. Like tracking the # of conversations started, not comment counts.

The buyers in 2026 are sophisticated. 
They scroll past generic content instantly. 

(Especially with all the AI-written word vomit that is all over our feeds making everyone sound the same)

They want to work with someone who clearly understands their exact problem and has a proven system to solve it.

Your LinkedIn brand isn't about going viral.

It's about becoming the obvious choice when someone with money is ready to invest in a solution.

From the inside, I can tell you: LinkedIn rewards creators who drive real tangible outcomes, not just engagement.

LinkedIn has changed a lot in the last year, don't you think?

The best salespeople I know barely talk.

Sounds backwards, right?

We picture great salespeople as smooth talkers. 
Always pitching. Dominating every conversation.

That's actually what average salespeople do.

In my years training over 3,000 sales professionals, I watched this same pattern:

The reps who talked 80% of the call closed maybe 20% of their deals.

The top performers? They flipped that ratio. 

They asked better questions. Then shut up and listened.

Here's what this looks like on your discovery calls:

🚫 Average coach: "Let me tell you about my program and all the amazing results my clients get..."

✅ Top-performing coach: "What's the biggest challenge you're facing right now?" 

Then listens. Really listens.

 🚫 Average coach: "Here's why my method works better than everything else..."

✅ Top performer: "What have you tried before that didn't work? What made it fall short?"

Again, listens.

The magic happens in that silence.

Your prospect tells you exactly how to help them. They reveal their real pain points. They practically sell themselves.

But here's what most coaches miss:

Listening isn't passive. It's the most strategic thing you can do.

When you truly listen, you're gathering their exact language. Their specific problems. The outcomes they're desperate for.

That's when selling stops feeling pushy.

And starts feeling like the most natural thing in the world.

What's the most surprising thing a prospect has revealed to you when you just... listened?

Here's why you haven't hit a $100K launch...yet
(And it's probably not the reason you think.)

❌ It's not because you don't know how to sell.
You've signed clients. You've had wins. You've launched before.

❌ It's not because your offer isn't good enough.
Your clients get results. Your work is powerful and transformational.

❌ It's not about needing another funnel, template, or marketing hack.
You've probably tried those already and still feel stuck.

Here's the actual reason:
Your offer suite wasn't built for $100K launches.

Most coaches build from survival mode:
→ Saying yes to anyone who shows interest
→ Stacking on endless modules or bonuses thinking "more = better"
→ Designing offers that require you to be present, live, and pouring in 110% on delivery

That creates:
• Heavy, unscalable offers
• Programs where you carry the results
• A calendar packed with back-to-back 1:1 calls
• Revenue tied directly to your energy not systems

That kind of structure can maybe get you to $10K or $20K months. But it won't sustain $100K launches.

What can scale you to six-figure launches?

✅ Offers designed for premium buyers (not price-shoppers)
✅ Programs that create self-led clients not clients dependent on you 24/7
✅ Clear boundaries around delivery (so you don't burn out)
✅ A strategic offer suite with upsells, downsells, and multiple entry points
✅ Messaging that resonates so deeply, your dream clients think: "There's no one else for me."

In my first $100K launch - guess what I sold? A $3K program, not $10K or $25K.

I combined:
• A free 3-day challenge (with a paid $47 VIP option added ~$5K pre-launch)
• A $3K core program (30+ people enrolled)
• A $1K VIP upgrade that sold out
• A $100 down-sell for those not ready to commit many of whom bought back into the main offer

Every touchpoint was monetized.
I didn't rely on a big price tag I relied on smart strategy and structure.

That's exactly what I'm teaching inside my FREE 4-day challenge, January 26th-29th:

→ How to structure your group program so it scales without burning you out
→ How to create multiple monetization touchpoints (not just one big sale)
→ How to sell without feeling pushy or awkward
→ The complete breakdown of how to turn a $3K offer into a $100K launch

Comment or DM "CHALLENGE" below and I'll send you the link to register.

You have fifteen 1:1 clients and you're completely burnt out.

Or you launched your group program and three people signed up. When you needed fifteen.

Both scenarios suck.

The 1:1 trap has you trading time for money with no ceiling in sight. You're busy but not building wealth.

The empty group program has you questioning everything. Your expertise. Your messaging. Whether you're cut out for this at all.

"Maybe I should lower my prices."
"Maybe my offer isn't good enough."
"Maybe I'm just not meant to scale."

Here's what I learned after multiple $100K launches selling a $3K group program (not a $25K mastermind):

The problem isn't your offer. Or your pricing.

It's how you're positioning and selling it.

Most coaches get this backwards. They think they need more offers or more hustle.

What you actually need? Better positioning and a sales process that doesn't make you feel gross.

That's exactly what we're covering in my free 4-day challenge starting January 26th: How to Scale Your Group Program to Multi-6 Figures in 2026.

Here's the breakdown:

→ Day 1 (Jan 26): Why Your Group Program Isn't Selling - The real reason programs aren't filling and how to make them decidable

→ Day 2 (Jan 27): How to Structure Your Group Programs for Impact & Scale - Simplifying bloat so you can hold more clients without burning out

→ Day 3 (Jan 28): How to Sell Without Pushing - Shifting from people-pleasing to authentic power

→ Day 4 (Jan 29): BTS of My $100K Launch - Full breakdown with every touchpoint, number, and strategy

If you're tired of being stuck in either scenario, I'd love to see you there.

Scale Your Group

Most coaches launch, pray, and hope it works. 
I build a wave that sells for weeks. Here's how.

Most coaches treat every launch like a one-off.

They go all in for one big moment. Hope for the best. 
And then when it's over, they let the momentum die.

That's not how I launch.

When I launch, I build a wave. 

I create multiple touchpoints where people can buy. I don't rely on one perfect moment. I maximize every ounce of momentum.

That's how you turn a $3K offer into a $100K launch.

And on Day 4 of my free challenge—January 29th—I'm breaking down the entire strategy for you.

Sales Wave

She launched one group program. You keep selling 1:1 sessions.

She's making $50K months working 20 hours a week.
You're making $15K working 60 hours a week.

You're watching her scale while you stay stuck trading time for money.
And meanwhile, you're feeling so frustrated because you know that should be you.

Here's what you're doing without even realizing it:

→ Promoting your group program but defaulting to 1:1 when someone inquires
→ Pricing your group lower because you're not sure it's "as good"
→ Telling yourself you'll run groups "when you have more time"
→ Secretly believing your 1:1 clients get the best results
→ Worrying you can't hold 10 people's attention like you can with one

I did this for 2 years.

I had the expertise. The results. The testimonials.
I knew group programs were the path to freedom.

But every time someone wanted to work with me, I'd think:
- "They'll get better results if I work with them 1:1."
- "What if I can't give everyone the attention they need?"
- "What if someone falls behind and I don't notice?"

I was building a case against my own success.

Every month, I'd watch other coaches launch groups while I stayed busy being "helpful" on endless 1:1 calls.

That's when I made the shift.

I stopped selling what felt safe and started selling what would set me free.

My first group program hit $8K in 6 days
Second one hit $59K.
Now $50k-$100k months are the norm .

Not because I became a better coach.
Because I became more convicted about what my clients actually need.

Your ideal clients don't need your undivided attention for 90 minutes every week.

They need your proven system, community support, and the accountability that only comes from being in a group of committed people doing the work together.

Stop waiting until you feel "ready" to run groups.
Your conviction grows by doing, not by thinking.

That's exactly what we're covering in my FREE 4-Day Challenge on How to Sell Out Your Group Offers.

I leave 180 comments in a week on LinkedIn.

If you are just adding comments, you are not growing.

LinkedIn is still a text-heavy platform where the majority of the content is text.

This leaves you with minimal options to leave a good impression.

Since you either need to ace the hook line or add a quality image.

But this is not possible all the time.

So the best way to get the attention of other people is by adding comments.

Leave 20-40 comments a day on smaller accounts, new accounts, and top creators' accounts.

Make sure your comment adds value and is authentic.

This helps you get more profile views and connections along with good engagement on your posts.

So if you want to build your LinkedIn profile by simply posting content, then you must comment (comment a lot).

P.S. How many comments do you add in a day on LinkedIn?

Founder @Bridgenile Socials | 20+ Brands Served in 2 Years

Don't ignore the profile views.

I have closed 3 clients from views.

The best leverage you get on LinkedIn: You can see the profiles who viewed your profile.

You don't get this leverage from any other social media platform.

The best part is if a prospect views your profile, you can reach out and ask whether he/she is interested in your services and then you can start the conversation.

Here's how you convert your views into clients:

Add your prospects' profiles to your engagement sheet (add only active ones).

Comment on their posts regularly and wait until they view your profile.

Now send them a personalized connection note either about what you do or ask them if they are interested.

Once you are connected, you can then start the conversation.

I follow this strategy and have closed 3 clients in the past year.

Not only clients, you can also connect with profiles who view your profile regularly and grow your network. It's always a win-win.


P.S. Have you closed a client using this method?

I couldn't do these 5 things in 2025.


1) I couldn't reach 10K followers on LinkedIn (I have gained quality connections).

2) I couldn't do 1 networking call each month from LinkedIn.

3) I didn't connect with 20 new profiles each month.

4) I didn't reach 10 clients (but I believe in quality clients rather than quantity).

5) I just posted 5 videos in 2025 on LinkedIn (my target was 5 videos each month).

There are a few more, but I guess these were something I thought I would have achieved.

The best part of 2025: I was consistent the whole year.

There was not a single day that I was not active on LinkedIn. Even on holidays, vacations, and 
weekends, I scrolled LinkedIn, read content, and added comments.


P.S. What was your biggest achievement on LinkedIn in 2025?

Most of you ignore this on LinkedIn 

And you land up with 0 clients.

The Profile Viewers section on LinkedIn is highly underrated.

If you have a premium plan on LinkedIn, you can see all the people who viewed your profile.

And when your prospect views it, it means they are either interested in your service or want to know what you do.

So once they view your profile, you can send them a connection note and start a conversation in your DM.

I have closed 3 clients from this option in the last year.

Here's how you can attract your ICP to view your profile:

- If they are active, you can add quality comments on their posts. This will make them notice your profile.

- Create content that speaks about their pain points.

- Send them a connection note on LinkedIn.

The best part of these processes is most of you do it but often ignore the Profile Viewers section.

From today, keep an eye on your profile viewers. Your prospect might be viewing your profile.

Do vision boards work?

For the first time, I had a vision board in 2025

I created it in the first week of January 2025.

I had noted down some important tasks to be done.

I also noted down some tasks that were out of my range.

This simple exercise gave me a clear direction of "what" I want and "how" I can get it.

I started making my execution in the right direction.

I knew if I execute this, I can achieve it.

And by the end of December, I had already achieved 80% of the tasks added on the vision board.

From my experience, I can clearly emphasize the importance of a vision board if you truly want to change your life.

It truly changed mine within a year.


P.S. Did you create your vision board for 2026?

Do you remember your 1st post on LinkedIn?

I do, and here's what I wrote that made me keep writing till now.

My first post on LinkedIn was way back on August 6th, 2023.

I wrote content on the summary of a YouTube video by Ishan Sharma.

In which he said: "If you found it valuable, then write it across social media and tag me. I will comment on that post."

I thought this is the right opportunity to talk with Ishan Sharma or get his attention.

Since I was looking for gig opportunities and I had sent him an email to work at his agency.

I posted the content and expected him to reply, but he didn't reply.

As it was my first post and I had just posted content without any hook, format, or CTA.

Then I understood the importance of formatting, the way of writing content to hook the audience, and writing a good CTA.

I learned to write better copies each day and started posting on LinkedIn.

Within a month of posting, I got my first client for LinkedIn management.

It was a big win as it boosted my confidence and made me realize the importance of having a personal brand.

From then, I haven't looked back. I kept posting, getting new clients, referrals, scaled my freelance business into an agency, and I am still going 
strong.

Always trust the process and never get disappointed, because every failure or rejection teaches you something good.


P.S. Do you remember your first post on LinkedIn?

LinkedIn in 2025 was all about going viral.

LinkedIn in 2026 is about being real.

For years, everyone sounded the same on LinkedIn.

Professional. Polished. Perfect.

Every post read like it came from a PR team. Every brand sounded like a robot trying to be friendly.

That era is over.

People are tired of fake authenticity. They're done with brands pretending to care. They're scrolling past content that sounds like it was written by a committee.

Here's what's winning in 2026:
→The brands and people standing out aren't the ones playing it safe.
→They're the ones with actual opinions. Real voices. Something to say that matters.
→Being neutral doesn't make you professional. It makes you forgettable.
→ And forgettable doesn't get clients.

4 things that actually matter:

1) Authenticity. People can spot fake instantly. If you're pretending, they know.

2) Point of view. You don't need to agree with everyone. Strong opinions create strong connections.

3) Personality. Your quirks, your humor, your way of seeing things. That's what makes you different.

4) Boldness. Say what you actually think. Stop hiding behind corporate speak.

The truth about 2026:
Nobody cares about your logo. Nobody remembers your tagline.

They remember if you sounded real or fake. They remember if you had something worth saying.

The new marketing isn't about being perfect. It's about being human.

Flaws included. Opinions included. Conviction included.

If your content never makes anyone uncomfortable, it's probably not making anyone feel anything at all.

This decade belongs to people who:
→ Say what they believe, even when it's unpopular.
→ Show who they really are, not who they think they should be.
→ Take risks with their voice instead of playing it safe.
→ Stop trying to sound professional. Start sounding like you.

LinkedIn doesn't need more corporate posts. It needs more real people.


P.S. What's one thing you've been holding back from sharing on LinkedIn?

Toyota rejected a mechanic who pitched a new design.

That mechanic built a Honda.

This is the story of Soichiro Honda.

In the late 1930s, Soichiro Honda was a young mechanic in Japan.

No engineering degree. No wealthy family. Just an obsession with engines.

He spent years developing a new piston ring design. Poured everything into it. Mortgaged his wife's jewelry. Worked day and night.

When it was ready, he approached Toyota.

Toyota said no.

They rejected his design. It didn't meet their quality standards.

Most people would have given up.

Soichiro went back to school.

At 30 years old, he enrolled in technical courses to learn metallurgy.

The one skill he was missing.

He studied. Improved his design. Went back to Toyota.

This time, they said yes. He won the contract.

But then World War II happened.

His factories were bombed. An earthquake destroyed what was left.

He sold the remains of his piston ring business to Toyota for a fraction of its value.

Most people would have quit.

Soichiro saw an opportunity.

Post-war Japan was in ruins. People couldn't afford cars. Transportation was a crisis.

He noticed surplus generator engines from the war sitting unused.

So he attached one to a bicycle.

That motorized bicycle became the first Honda product.

The rise:
→ 1948: Founded Honda Motor Co.
→ 1949: First motorcycle, the Dream D-Type
→ 1958: Super Cub became the best-selling vehicle of all time
→ 1963: Entered automobile manufacturing
→ Today: One of the world's largest automotive brands

Why Honda succeeded:
He used rejection as feedback. Toyota's "no" taught him what he didn't know. So he learned it.

He pivoted after disaster. Lost everything in the war? He found a new problem to solve with 
what was left.

He focused on real needs. Post-war Japan needed cheap transport. He delivered exactly that.

The lesson:

Rejection isn't the end. It's often just the beginning.

Toyota rejected Soichiro's design. He improved and won the contract.

Then war destroyed his business. He rebuilt with bicycles and engines.

Today, Honda competes with Toyota as one of the world's most respected 
brands.

Sometimes the best comeback isn't proving them wrong. It's building something they can't ignore.



P.S. What's one rejection that ended up redirecting you to something better?

LinkedIn must fix these in 2026,

1) Provide a pin comment

2) Be more transparent about the algorithm , it keeps changing without any prior update or notice.

3) Provide a story feature where we can add important things about work & life which are not meant to be posted.

4) Provide genuine project requests on the Service page.

5) Organic reach should be prioritised.

These are some few pointers that LinkedIn should fix in 2026.



P.S. What else would you like to add to this ?

You are missing a gold mine if you are not active online.

A good brand can help you get good opportunities and leads for your business.

You may have seen or read content posted from a founder's account.

It's because everyone wants to build a good loyal audience for themselves.

An audience who follows their instructions and converts when they sell something.

This is the new marketing which is both cost-effective and efficient for a business.

Since you are not spending any dime on ads to sell your products.

And the best part, It lasts, since you have built it organically.

Now the question comes: which platform is best suited or best to get started?

The answer is: It depends.

If you are into B2B or want to build an audience who has bigger purchasing power or is highly qualified, then X and LinkedIn are your platforms.

And if you are into B2C, then Instagram is your platform.

If you want to build your brand on LinkedIn or get started with LinkedIn, then DM me "LinkedIn" and I will connect with you and help you build your brand in 2026.


P.S. What are the other pros of building your brand?

12 days are already deducted from 2026.

You have still not posted anything on LinkedIn.

Your main goal for 2026 was to post on LinkedIn.

But that is still not possible for you.

Since you are either confused about what to post or how to post.

These are the main reasons for many profiles on LinkedIn who wait for the right strategy and the right time to post.

But that day never comes for you.

Not this time. You will post content on LinkedIn and build your brand.

You just need to comment "Content" and I will send you a DM for a 1:1 consultation call.


I will be sharing the strategy for what to post, how to post, and when to post.

I lost 2 prospects within a week by making this simple mistake.

The more time you give to your prospect to make a decision, 
the less is the conversion.

Recently, one of my prospects agreed to work with me but said to sign the contract the next day.

I was fully prepared with the strategy and the execution.

Next day, she said: "I have some other priorities and commitments this month. You reach out to me next month."

I knew this was coming since the moment she said she will sign the contract tomorrow.

So whenever you are on a call with your prospect, if the prospect is interested, make sure you convert them the same day or else it's just a lost opportunity for you.


P.S. Have you ever encountered such a situation before?

LinkedIn figured out how to make you addicted. And it's working.

I've been playing Zip Game for 190 days straight.

Now I'm hooked on Mini Sudoku too.

At first, I thought it was just a fun break between work.

Then I realized what's actually happening.

The psychology is simple:
After every game, LinkedIn shows you a leaderboard. Not random people. Your connections.

You see exactly how fast they solved it compared to you.

Suddenly it's not just a game. It's competition.

Someone from your network finished 10 seconds faster than you.

Your brain says, "I can do better."

So you play again tomorrow. And the next day. And the next.

LinkedIn knows what they're doing.

They're not just keeping you entertained. They're keeping you on the app.
Daily.

You're not visiting LinkedIn because you have to. You're visiting because you want to beat your connections at Sudoku.

That's a brilliant product strategy.

Keep users engaged through competition. Make it social. Make it visible.

And people show up every single day.


P.S. How many days is your current streak? Which game has you hooked?

Showing your expert side on LinkedIn is good.

But you also need to show your true self.

Content creation is now very easy with the evolution of AI tools.

Anyone can write a prompt and generate content and post it on LinkedIn.

And this is happening a lot. You can see a flood of generic content.

They term it as expert value-driven content that brings them leads.

But they eventually get no return, since only value-based or expert-based 
content:

→ Won't help you get reach 
→ Won't help you connect with your audience 
→ Won't help you stay authentic

The best way to stand out and get results is by adding your true self to your content.

It's very rare to find authentic content, content that talks about your life, your experiences, your learnings.

Next time you share content terming it as "value-driven," make sure you also post authentic content.

This is what helps you build your brand.


P.S. Sometimes I love sharing content that I think is often ignored by most of us.

₹3.7 crore per night to sleep on the Moon.

And people are already paying deposits.

A San Francisco-based startup called GRU Space just announced plans to build the world's first permanent hotel on the Moon.

Founded by Skyler Chan, a 22-year-old engineer and former Tesla software 
developer.

Target launch: 2032.

Here's what's actually happening:
The company is backed by Y Combinator (Winter 2026 batch) and investors linked to SpaceX, NVIDIA, and Anduril.

They're not just talking about it. They're taking real money.

Room rate: $410,000 per night (₹3.7 crore).
Booking deposit: $250,000 to $1 million upfront.

And people are paying it.

The plan:
The first version will host 4 guests for 5-night stays starting in 2032.
Test missions begin in 2029.
But here's where it gets interesting: they're not just building a hotel. They're building lunar infrastructure.

How they're building it:
Phase 1: Launch an inflatable structure from Earth to the Moon's surface.
Phase 2: Use automated robots to 3D-print permanent structures using lunar soil.
The technology is called In-Situ Resource Utilization (ISRU). They'll turn lunar regolith into bricks that shield guests from radiation.

Location: Lunar pits or lava tubes for natural protection from micrometeoroids.

Why this actually matters:
This isn't just about luxury tourism. It's about establishing a lunar economy.

If they succeed, they're not just building a hotel. They're building the infrastructure for long-term human presence on the Moon.

Think about what that means: permanent structures, automated construction, self-sustaining systems.

The reality check:
Is this feasible? Experts say it depends entirely on:
→ SpaceX's Starship succeeding with heavy-lift capability 
→ Establishing reliable Earth-to-Moon transport 
→ Proving ISRU technology works at scale 
→ Securing continued funding and regulatory approval

It's ambitious. Extremely ambitious.

But here's what's real: They have Y Combinator backing. They have SpaceX-linked investors. They're taking actual deposits.

What entrepreneurs can learn from this:
Skyler Chan is 22 years old. He worked at Tesla. Now he's building a Moon hotel.

He didn't wait until it was "realistic." He announced the vision, got serious backing, and started taking money.

That's the power of thinking impossibly big.

Whether GRU Space launches in 2032 or 2042, they've already built something valuable:
Credibility. Attention. Early believers willing to put down $250,000.

The lesson:
Bold ideas attract bold investors.
Big visions get attention that small, safe ideas never will.
You don't need to have everything figured out. You need to have a vision clear enough that the right people believe in it.

Would you book it?
If money and safety weren't concerns?

But the real question is: Would you build something so ambitious that people think you're crazy until you prove them wrong?


P.S. A 22-year-old is building a Moon hotel. What's your excuse for playing it safe?
