Upgrade Your Subscription & Support What Works

What Works has been around since 2015 in one form or another. It always has been free—and remains free to this day.

I approach my work with an attitude of abundance and generosity.1 That means that I prioritize reaching as many people as I can with free insight and analysis.

However, my work also has to be sustainable. The research, analysis, writing, editing, and interviewing I do to produce this newsletter and the What Works podcast is a full-time job. Everyone who upgrades to a premium subscription helps me focus on this work.

But more than that, everyone who upgrades to a premium subscription makes it possible for many more people to access the writing and podcast episodes I put out free of charge.

The life and work of an independent writer & podcaster isn’t glamorous. But it’s the work I love and the work that allows me to care for myself. I know there are many creators whom you might want to support, and you can’t support all of them. If you choose to upgrade, please know that I am incredibly grateful and humbled.
