As 2024 comes to a close, I want to take a moment to thank you for your incredible support. This year saw the launch of “Remarkable Monday,” and every read, share, and reply has helped shape this platform into what it is today.

What began as a simple idea has grown into a thriving community—a space where leaders, entrepreneurs, and dreamers can connect, reflect, and take meaningful action toward their goals. I’m deeply grateful to each of you for being part of this journey in our first year.

Here’s a look at what we’ve accomplished together:

This being our first year, we’ve hit some exciting milestones. These aren’t just numbers—they tell the story of a community coming together. Whether it was diving into topics like leadership, focus, or strategic planning, your engagement has made this journey truly remarkable.

If this year has taught me anything, it’s the importance of showing up. Every Monday, no matter what was going on—whether I was juggling a packed schedule or struggling to find the right words—I made it a point to hit “send.”

Being consistent and uncompromising about posting each week has been a challenge at times, but it’s also been one of the most rewarding commitments I’ve ever made.

The response has truly been overwhelming—in the best way. Seeing how these newsletters have connected with you, week after week, has done my heart so much good. It has reminded me that showing up, even when it’s not easy or perfect, matters.

In that consistency, we build something meaningful. And for that, I’m so thankful.

I’m so excited to share how Remarkable Monday’s community stacks up against the industry. While the average email click-through rate is around 2.5%, our click-through rate is 4.2%—nearly double!

Our open rate is right in line with the industry average of 15–25%, which tells me our content is reaching and resonating with you. These numbers aren’t just stats—they’re a reflection of this community showing up, engaging, and finding value every single week. I couldn’t be more grateful for your support!

I hope this message finds you well. I’m sharing from my heart in hopes that you will be inspired to unearth and live out your God-given purpose. Hopefully, something I said resonated. I would love to hear from you if so. Please feel free to reach out to me on social media. FYI: I’m mostly active on Instagram these days.
