This is an ongoing, high-touch consulting partnership designed to help you grow your publication with clarity, intuitive creativity and a smarter connection to your audience.
Together, we’ll bridge the gap between what feels true to your voice and what actually works for your audience.
You’re publishing regularly —
But the data feels muddy. You want to trust your rhythm and still know what’s working. If you’ve been staring at your Substack dashboard thinking:
Who’s actually paying attention?
What’s resonating — and why does some of it stall out?
Should I be doing more? Or less? Or differently?
And what on earth am I supposed to do with this data or my CSV file?
You’re not alone — and you’re not wrong to wonder.
So many smart, voice-rich creators are flying blind when it comes to their publishing strategy. They have data, but no real interpretation. They have rich creative instincts, but no sounding board. They want to grow — but without breaking what made their work meaningful in the first place.
That’s where I come in.
This isn’t about growth hacks or one-size-fits-all funnels. It’s about building a rhythm that reflects who you are — and what your readers respond to. It’s about having a strategic partner who can see the patterns, ask the right questions and turn “What should I do next?” into “Here’s my next move.”
