"My GRADUATION STORY:
After PLF, ClickFunnels, Ryan Leveque's quiz funnels and year long course, and even Christian Mickelson's coaching program..., I was still having a real challenge finding a system that could work for ME to market my award winning kids book so I could finally actually get it to market and start helping kids avoid bullying and becoming another teen suicide statistic.
I finally realized my techy former girlfriend wasn't as dedicated to helping me as she had been saying she was for 7 years when she left after getting a job offer in Utah. I wasn't sure how I was ever going to get past my ""non-techy"" history and be able to actually pull off creating the kind of course my Best Indie Book Award winning kids book deserved!
I joined EPM after being fascinated by Marisa's explanation of harnessing the dopamine production with the structure of the learning process and I knew I was where I needed to be. Since even now I still don't even know how to send a friend request on FB (just had to ask someone this morning) when I say I'm a non-techy I mean... this is not my gig. Give me a guitar and a mic and I'm fine, put me at the top of a 40' ladder cleaning the gutters or hanging off the edge of a 3rd story roof, piece of cake... but navigating all this google doc, fb, milestone mania... That's been bigtime challengeville for my 60 year old brain... But today's kids need the resilience and confidence and parents need the support, so failure on this has never been an option for me.
I have so appreciated the presentation style, examples, astounding intelligence APPLIED to something so important, the dedication of Coach Mike who has repeatedly taken his own private personal time to schedule extra sessions with our pod, be it Christmas eve, (almost 40 minutes with me alone around 6;30 his time...A.Maz.Ing!) Such a wonderful man, coach, representative you have in him. Please don't judge him based on my lack of fb posts! I've done well to have any!
So now with Mike's and my efforts, I am graduating! And I'm liking the experience of this dopamine thing in addition to appreciating the theory of it all. I can FEEL the boost of my understanding and confidence and I'm looking forward to the modules still yet to come (I haven't even LOOKED at 4 yet)
I feel like I have found my educational ""home""... much like I felt when I first found Mary Morrissey's ""Living Enrichment Center"" and knew it was my spiritual home, back in the 80's.
Once this course of mine is on autopilot, more or less, and I've got my illustrator working full time for me on the next books, and a few other goals behind me, I would love to be a bigger part in what I KNOW is next for you Marisa and Murray and LYM... But I don't want you to wait for me... So:
What you've created here is ground breaking evolutionary code cracking paradigm shifting systemology that needs to be taken to the next level, of course, right?
The missing component to me anyway, is gonna seem obvious when you hear it maybe given the song you ended your EPM course with, but I'm crystal clear that when you add music into the course content and structure, specifically written music, lyrics, instrumentation and rhythms that emotionally connect and relate to the content, and invite the optional use of the support songs that some focused talented songwriters have created (and maybe even recorded in different musical genres and styles to relate with different age clients...)... THAT to me will be the ultimate learning environment and structure, supporting and supported by everything you've already created. I can only imagine what it might do for the completion numbers and engagement, sharing songs that then would become the study material that could be taken and used everywhere...
This is something I will be incorporating to a limited degree with what I can figure out how to manage in Raising Resilient Kiddos but I know you could do more with the idea than I will most likely be able to any time soon, so take it. Use it. Do it. Please. We have so much to learn that we need ALL the tools available to help us receive and for me that conversation will never be complete without a powerfully intentional, physiologically integrated (432hz based) music component. Call me if you wanna talk about it. (503) 381-1138. I'd love to help if I can. Thanks again for everything! We've only just begun... Stay Tuned!! Mark"
