  • Like having a growth strategist in your earbud

    I’m not just a listener—I’m a student. I bought her course, and I’ve been implementing her strategies to grow my pickleball newsletter, Five Dink Friday. The results? More clarity, more momentum, and way more sign-ups.

    Growth in Reverse isn’t fluff—it’s a mix of “aha” moments and concrete tactics you can use the same day. It feels like getting a private consult while you’re out for a walk. If you want to grow your brand (without guessing your way through it), this podcast is a goldmine.

  • You’d have to be stupid…

    …not to listen to Chenell and Dylan. They’re legit A+ newsletter marketers, and I’ve landed thousands of new subscribers directly attributed to the strategies they share.
