Tim Stoddart shares how he is using Substack for a paid newsletter, community and courses.

This is a simple way to manage everything.

"Jonny Miller created Nervous System Mastery, a five-week cohort-based course that teaches evidence-backed protocols to cultivate calm, build resilience, and increase aliveness in 45 days. It just wrapped up its sixth cohort in the last three years. Jonny has served nearly 1,000 students in those six cohorts and earned more than $800,000.

Here’s the best part – Jonny doesn’t have a massive audience. When he launched Nervous System Mastery, he had a couple thousand followers on Twitter and a small email list. This is the magic of a well-designed Signature Product."
