I am absolutely pumped to have Jill Stanton on the show today as we dive into the production, marketing, and lifestyle of online course creation. Jill (along with her husband Josh) is one of the biggest players in the coaching and course production world.
In this episode Jill shares the learnings, challenges, highs and lows of working with her husband Josh as they built their company Wealthy Course Creator. Recently, Jill has stepped back from that business to step into her soul play work - Millionaire Girls Club (MGC).
MGC is a coaching and luxury retreat company that connects and empowers women that are in the $1M plus circle to create unforgettable experiences. Jill shares how incredibly intimidated she was initially by her vision for this company. After a history of sister wounds and difficult female relationships, setting up a company that creating spaces for women felt like the most terrifying thing she could think of.
But after a transformational moment with Tony Robbins, Jill came to understand the point of the challenges she had previously faced and emerged with a whole new vision and understanding of what was possible.
This conversation dives deep into so many areas that feel valuable, both for course creation, but also what it’s like to grow, sustain and thrive in business. Jill shares her biggest lessons, how to grow a following and community and how to find the balance, energetically, with live coaching. She also shares her incredible wisdom around how to avoid burnout, the journey she’s taken to navigate her triggers and how setting boundaries and expectations is the most loving thing you can do for your community.
We also talk about the power of understanding that you don’t need to be all things to all people and how isolating playing at the highest level can be.
Jill hosted her first retreat with MGC this year and has a big vision for her company. I can’t wait to see where she takes it.
I know you’ll love this conversation. If you’re new to online course creation, or you’ve been in the arena for a while, this is the episode for you!
