*Warning: last fall cohort sold out in 24 hrs. Doors open Sept 14 β
π The Newsletter System is a live cohort program for solopreneurs who are over staring at a blank screen
In 6 weeks, you'll β
ποΈ SOUND LIKE YOU β newsletters that read like a person, not a template (in way less time)
π SEND CONSISTENTLY β a system you can keep up on a chaotic week, and restart after a break without the shame spiral
π± GROW A LIST THAT'S READY TO BUY β because a warm, owned audience buys whenever you make an offer
Even if you're not a "writer," hate the tech, and have started (& stalled) an email list more than once. ππΌββοΈ
And then you have to do it again next week. And the week after that. Foreverrr.
So you don't.
You skip a week.
Then another.
Until that half-finished draft has been sitting there for two months.
You freeze because you think it has to be good. The blank screen isn't the villain β perfectionism is.
And it's exactly how nothing ever gets sent.
π΅βπ« A list full of people who raised their hand to hear from you, slowly forgetting you exist.
π΅βπ« Launching to a cold, silent list, because you only show up when you want something.
π΅βπ« One algorithm change away from losing the reach you spent years building.
π΅βπ« The same loop, on repeat: fall off, feel guilty, start over, fall off again.
π΅βπ« That version of you who looks forward to writing every week never gets to show up.
It doesn't have to be this way...and it's way simpler than you think. (That's where I come in.)
Back in 2020, someone asked me, "Do you even have a real business if you don't have an email list?" I didn't. And the thought of starting one legit terrified me.
I'm not a writer. I'd stare at a blank screen wondering what I'd possibly say β every week, forever.
Then it clicked, and it's the whole dang reason this course exists: I didn't need to become a writer. I needed a system.
So I built one: a format, a way to always know what to write, a rhythm I could keep. And:
β 295 weeks in a row. Not without missing a week here or there for holidays or vacation, but always picking right back up where I left off when I returned.
β 0 to 12,000+ subscribers in about two years.
β Email drives the majority of my sales (over 1.5M in revenue)
None of that is because I'm special, or secretly great at writing. It's the system doing the heavy lifting β which means it'll do it for you, too.
My newsletter went from most-dreaded task to highlight of my week.
I built The Newsletter System to hand you the exact path β minus the two years alone!
Before you write a single word: who this is for, and what the heck it's actually for. We nail your reader, your reason, and the one belief that changes everything β that an owned list beats a rented audience, every single time.
You'll walk away with: crystal clarity on who you're writing to and why β no more "I'm all over the place."
The week you stop dreading the blank page. You'll build your Voice Doc + Story Bank β a back-pocket kit of your voice, your founder story, and your best client moments β so you never sit down empty again (hand it to AI, or keep it as your own cheat sheet).
You'll walk away with: a finished Voice Doc, a starter Story Bank, and your core stories written down and ready to pull from.
My signature 3-2-1 format (or your own!), your cadence, your template. The container you'll pour every future newsletter into β so "what do I send?" quietly becomes "oh, I already know."
You'll walk away with: your newsletter format + the 3-2-1 template, and a sending rhythm you can actually keep.
On purpose. No new lessons β just breathing room to catch up, get unstuck, or revisit previous trainings. Because the whole point is not falling behind and quitting β and a built-in breather is how you don't.
You'll walk away knowing you've got built-in time in case life, life's.
The twin monsters β "what do I write?" and "how do I keep going?" β solved together. Your idea engine, my 5-step writing process, subject lines that actually get opened, and the exact play for coming back after a break without the awkward "soβ¦ it's been a while" energy.
You'll walk away with: a repeatable writing system, a subject-line swipe file, and come-back-after-a-break templates.
Now that you've got something worth subscribing to, we fill the seats. Retention that plugs the leaks first, newsletters people actually forward, turning IG followers into subscribers, and freebies + opt-in pages that convert.
You'll walk away with: a named freebie, a live opt-in page, and a promo plan (keyword and all).
FACTS: You can't launch to a cold list.
That's like throwing a party and forgetting to invite anyone. This is step one: the consistent, growing, genuinely engaged list that makes selling feel easy whenever you're ready to make an offer.
The kickass-and-take-names launching part...that's the sequel. π
It gave me so much drive. I paid 10x more for another course with 100x more people, and I got so little out of that program. Em's was the total opposite. The course is SO organized and structured.
Em showed us what to do step by step (literally) β the end-of-module checklists were great (do it, and you make progress, simple as that)! I've sent my first email AND have a plan to keep sending them. I also know exactly how to grow my list!
Em, you've literally taken us step-by-step through this whole process and made it so simple! That's what I love⦠you've shown us that we can actually do this and it doesn't have to be an overwhelming process!
You made everything so simple and easy to follow. I realized how much harder I was making email marketing on myself than it needed to be. I'm excited for my new newsletter format and to promote it!
Short answer: hell-to-the-yes, girl. And here's the math that made it click for me.
Instagram can change the rules overnight...and hand your reach to a few dozen people out of thousands. Your email list?!
That's yours. Forever. Nobody can throttle it, shadow-ban it, or bury it under an algorithm change.
Look at the numbers:
π© Email open rates run 20β50%. A list of 1,000 β 200+ people actually see your offer.
π± Instagram reach runs 3β5%. 1,000 followers β maybe 30 people see the same post.
Selling only to your followers means you're leaving the majority of your people β and your sales β on the table. An owned list is the difference.
Clarity on exactly who your newsletter's for and why it exists
Your Voice Doc + Story Bank β your personal anti-blank-screen kit (hand it to AI, or keep it as your own cheat sheet)
Your newsletter format + my 3-2-1 template β the container you'll reuse forever
A repeatable writing system + subject-line swipe file β so "what do I write?" stops being a crisis
Come-back-after-a-break templates β for the next time life happens (because it will)
A named freebie + a live opt-in page + a promo plan β the growth engine, ready to run
Your first newsletters β actually sent. Not in drafts. Sent.

Six weeks β five teaching weeks plus a built-in catch-up week in the middle. Lessons are pre-recorded, bite-sized, and released on a schedule so you're never overwhelmed.
The first live training for the Fall 2026 cohort is Thursday, September 24 at 1 pm EST, and we'll send recordings within 24 hours afterward (usually much sooner!).
All of our live trainings will be on Thursdays at 1 pm EST for 6 weeks in a row.
Same course, same 6 weeks, same resources β the difference is how much of me you get.
Self-Paced is the roadmap, solo.
Supported adds live Q&A, community, and accountability (pick this if you've fizzled before).
Signature adds two 1-on-1 calls with me for my eyeballs and opinion on all your work!
Six months with everything β all the recordings, resources, and templates. Long enough to run the whole system from start to finish (twice, honestly), with a real finish line so it actually gets done.
And yes β 6 months, not forever. On purpose. "Lifetime access" is where courses go to die (be honest: how many have you bought and never opened? ππΌββοΈ). A deadline is what turns someday into done.
Life happened, and you need more time? Email me. I'm a human. π€
If you opt into the Supported or Signature programs, yes, either my feedback or my insanely smart and talented co-coaches' feedback on any and all weekly assignments or questions you have during our time together.
My co-coaches have worked with me for years; I adore and trust them completely, and I guarantee you will, too!
I provide ALL the resources you'll need to set you up for the MOST success, and you can also ask me direct questions during our weekly live Q&A call (included in Supported & Signature).
Here is our Live Q&A Call schedule:
Thursdays at 12:30 pm EST starting September 24th!
YES, we'll record all calls and send them to you within 24 hours after the call in case you can't make it live.
Nope. The teaching is platform-agnostic β the framework, the writing, the system all work anywhere. The Flodesk-specific walkthroughs live in the Setup Vault for anyone who wants them (and plenty of non-Flodesk students have gotten a ton out of this).
You're more than welcome to join TNS! This is a completely revised and updated program, and therefore, if you'd like in, you'd have to purchase one of the tiers.
You're in the right place β Week 6 is all about growing it. This course shines brightest when you have (or are starting) a list and want to use it well.
Also, please note this is not a technical "how to set up an email list on [insert platform]."
That portion you'd need to figure out on your own!
You already know email matters β that's not the question.
The question is whether this is the round where it finally sticks. Where the blank screen stops winning, where you send even on the messy weeks, where the people who raised their hand actually hear from you.
I built the exact path. All you have to do is get your booty in here and do the work!
