⭐ What our learners have to say
How has Scaling Organic Growth using SEO and Content Marketing cohort by Arun Kothapally helped you?
The Scaling Organic Growth Using SEO and Content Marketing cohort by Arun has been an eye-opener. It has provided me with a bird's eye view of SEO & content marketing. Now, I believe I'll be able to take the right approach to SEO and get it included in the main service offering at my agency.
How was your Learn in public journey and what did you learn from this?
The Learn in public journey motivated me to get started with creating content on LinkedIn. I always wanted to create content on LinkedIn months before joining this cohort. Somehow, I just couldn't kickstart but this initiative helped me make that move and I've already started my journey and am trying to continue it.

📖 An interesting article for your tranquil Sunday evening
Solitude and leadership
“If you want others to follow, learn to be alone with your thoughts”
Through this article, you will understand how solitude is one of the most important necessities of authentic leadership.
People might have this notion that solitude and leadership would seem contradictory but in reality, solitude is the very essence of leadership. The position of the leader is ultimately an intensely solitary, even extremely lonely one.

💫 A recent discovery we found fascinating
For this week, this thread by Brian Armstrong, co-founder and CEO of cryptocurrency platform Coinbase has caught our eyes.
“When we're unsure what is happening, we look to others around us to see what we should be doing - and copy it - instead of thinking for ourself”
He talked about three psychological concepts that are hard wired into our brains, which make us less resilient and creative in stressful situations. Have a read!
✨ Signing off with some wisdom
“The twisted tree lives its life, while the right tree ends up in a planks.”
People who grow up naturally competent or charismatic in the way society likes, end up getting used by the system. Weird folks or unconventional people who the system rejects early on, have a better chance of living on their own terms and make a difference.
