Finding the right foundation to keep the type of training I've been providing for the past 12+ years going and still staying afloat (and not just in my boat) has been a rough road. Bad business decisions, partnership failures, and focusing on the wrong things at the wrong times have all contributed to the current situation of WPStudio. BUT... I've been spending some serious time with several business coaches and getting help from business leaders OUTSIDE of the unhelpful "WordPress Coaches" and those non-WordPress business leaders have been incredibly helpful to me. And I want to share the direction with all of you who are part of the lifetime membership.
