I’m Sick of the Noise on Social Media

My social media feed just keeps getting noisier. Everyone’s shouting for attention, but few are saying anything meaningful.

It seems like anyone with a selfie stick and a dream has suddenly crowned themselves a thought leader.
Everywhere I look, someone’s launching a course, selling a framework, building a community, monetizing their personality.

But I get it. People want to get paid. They want to be seen. They’re trying to make life work.
I’ve been there. I still am there.

The problem isn’t that people are selling — it’s how they’re doing it.

Manipulative tactics.
Hype with no substance.
Fear-based marketing dressed up as empowerment.

It’s everywhere.
In the “make $10k this weekend” ads.
In the courses that overpromise and underdeliver.
It’s not our best.

Yesterday, someone commented on one of my YouTube videos and called my course a “get rich quick scheme.”
Honestly, it stung — but I understood where he was coming from.

The irony is, I built 5-Star Creator as a response to all that noise — but there I was being lumped in with all of it.
Most of the courses I took gave me one tiny puzzle piece and called it a system.
I wanted to create something that actually shows how the pieces fit together.

Yes, my program is five weeks long.
Some people think that’s too long.
Truthfully? It’s not enough.
Yes, we cover a lot.
But no, it’s not a shortcut. It’s a starting point.

Here's what most creators aren't willing to say:
If you want real success in the creator economy, it won’t come overnight. It takes time. Effort. Clarity.
That’s what I provide — so people don’t waste months (or years) spinning in circles.

And more than anything, I care about two things:

  1. How your success is earned.
    If it’s not built with integrity, I want no part of it.

  2. What you do with your voice.
    If you’re not in this to help people, count me out.

At my last job, I felt powerless.
But I’ve learned something:

With an audience, people think twice.
With an audience, you have leverage.
With an audience, the power shifts.

That’s what I’m offering: empowerment.

That’s why I keep showing up.
That’s why I keep sharing content.
And yes, that’s why I’ll keep promoting my course.

I want you to reclaim your voice, build autonomy, and achieve financial independence.
But I want you to do it honestly by providing real value.
Because success without integrity is hollow.


So if you’re considering the creator economy, I want you to do three things first:

  1. Ask yourself why.
    What do you actually want to get out of this?
    If it’s just money — save yourself (and the rest of us) the time. Don’t bother. There are easier ways to make money.

  2. Decide who you want to help.
    That’s crucial. You can’t build a business if you’re not solving something.
    For some creators, that “something” is boredom. No hate to entertainers — but that’s not me, and it’s not who I teach. TikTok dancers need not apply.

  3. Now ask yourself if you’re ready for no one to care.
    Are you ready to keep showing up even when it feels like no one’s listening — even when you’ve given it everything?
    If the answer is no — if you know your ego can’t take it — stop reading. This life isn’t for you.


If you’re still here, I want you to go to 5-Star Creator.
Read the entire course page. Ask questions. Challenge me.
Comment below and tell me why you think this isn’t for you.
Or tell me what you are looking for.

No pressure. No timer counting down.

You can also find a wealth of free information on my blog.
It's where I share some of my deepest thoughts. I’d rather you take the free stuff, change your life, and inspire others — than buy my course and never use it.

Because more than conversions, this is about change.
Meaningful work is the revolution.

Let’s keep the conversation going.
