Our free Support and Discussion Meetings take place (almost) every Tuesday at 11 AM Eastern!
In order to foster group learning and connections from every direction, we hold free community Support and Discussion Meetings where everyone has a chance to share progress, raise questions, and discuss any relevant issues they would like. In order to increase participation and openness, these sessions are not recorded. They are not presentations, lectures, or interviews – just pure discussion. Periodically they will include “elevator pitch practice” when whoever would like to share their pitch can get feedback from their peers and Brian.
Here is an opportunity for mutual support and learning. These meetings are free; no subscription required. Click here to join one of the meetings. Please note: we do not offer legal, financial, tax, insurance, or investment advice – see your lawyer, CPA, insurance agent, or financial advisor for those services. By participating you agree to abide by our Code of Conduct and Release Agreement.
