In his words06 / 06

In Nate’s own words.

“My only regret is not joining AHA sooner.”

My only regret is not joining AHA sooner. Mehr and the other coaches already know how I feel about the program, and it has genuinely changed the way I view content creation and my business. Everything you need to not only get better in your creative but also scale your business is taught here, and all that you have to do is implement.

Ultimately, I just left way more confident in my creative, way more confident in negotiating, and with a better head over my shoulders to navigate my creative business. If I'm being honest, I started content creation because I was miserable at my job, and it was genuinely because of the confidence I gained through this program that I felt good enough to quit and do this full time.

All being said, this program is a tough one, but it's worth it if you're ready to put in the work. I'm leaving with higher business revenue and a community which I did not have prior. Thank you Mehr, Krystal, and Rad!!!
