“I’d rather stop short than give it all I got and find out it wasn’t enough…” - @stevenfurtick
community can be hard. we’re all terrified that we’ll be rejected, especially when we put in effort.
if we don’t text anybody and nobody texts us, that makes sense. but if we text someone and they don’t respond, we feel like they hate us so we don’t even try.
there have been plenty of times where I’ve wanted to quit trying to build Reach Collaborative. even today I received a lot of texts that people can’t make it to our monthly meet up tomorrow. it makes me feel like there’s something wrong with me.
but community is more important than my unrealistic, self-centered feelings so I refuse to give up no matter how much I’m rejected. let’s keep building.

I created Reach Collaborative back in 2018 to help people not feel so alone. Little did I know I would end up helping myself too.
This community has changed my life in more ways that I could have ever imagined and it can only get better from here.
I’ve been wanting to create a way for people to be a part of it even if they weren’t in LA, so I made group chats that are all focused on a concept that I’m passionate about.
“Purpose” is about self-awareness, growth, and leadership.
“Daily Habits” is about choosing small actions every day that will create a better future for you and the people around you.
“Social Media” is about how to show up authentically and uniquely in a constantly changing digital world.
If this sounds like something you want to be a part of, please join! It’s $5 per group per month. Just venmo me @igotmovesbabe with the name of the group you want to join and I’ll send you the invite link.
Life can be so good.
