OVER DEZE AFLEVERING
What happens when you stop learning alone and start building alongside other creators who actually get it?
Business growth, accountability, friendship… the list goes on.
That’s exactly what I’ve experienced in my weekly meetings with fellow solopreneurs Paul Gowder, Rich Watts, Jim Fuhs, Kira Pogge Brewka, and Amy Kehs, where we talk through what’s actually working, what’s not, and where we’re stuck in our businesses.
And what is this mystical council of creatives called, you may be asking?
A mastermind.
But instead of just talking about masterminds, this episode is one. You’ll see a real session in action, from sharing wins to working through challenges and giving feedback in real time. If you’ve ever wondered what actually happens inside a mastermind, this gives you a front-row seat.

Key Takeaways- You get clarity you can’t find on your own
- When you’re too close to your work, it’s easy to stay stuck. A mastermind gives you outside perspective so you can see better options and make decisions faster.
- Confidence comes from the group
- Sometimes you don’t need more information, you need someone to say, “you’re good, go do it.” That push helps you move past overthinking and take action.
- It replaces the isolation of working alone
- Being a creator can feel lonely. A mastermind gives you a space where people understand your world and you don’t have to figure everything out by yourself.
- Accountability keeps you moving
- Knowing you’ll report back to the group pushes you to follow through, whether that’s shipping, testing, or deciding.
- The relationships matter as much as the advice
- Over time, it becomes more than business. You build real friendships and ongoing support beyond the weekly calls.
- Everyone adds value
- Different experiences and perspectives make the group stronger. You’re not just learning, you’re contributing too.
