The Amy Porterfield Show

I Stopped Selling Courses. This Is What I Sell Now.

Digital Course Academy earned over $60 million and served more than 100,000 students. About six months ago, I retired it.

This is the update. I'm taking you inside the three coaching programs I run now, the Monday Live masterclass everything flows through, the messaging problem that took me months of rewrites to solve, and the emotional cost of rebuilding a business I'd already built once.

Revenue and profit are both on track. There have still been days where I've wanted to come out of my skin, and that discomfort has taught me more about the women I serve than 17 years of teaching ever did.

How Hyper-Independence Caps Your Revenue, and What to Hand Off First

Being good at something has never been a reason to keep doing it. Nedra Glover Tawwab has three questions that tell you what should stay yours, and she asks them in this episode.

You can build a business where every decision waits on you and still call that a strength, because it worked for a long time. Nedra calls it hyper-independence, and she says nobody's born with it. You picked it up back when handling everything yourself was the safest option you had.

Nedra's been a licensed therapist for almost 20 years and was named to the TIME 100 list of Most Influential People in Global Health. She lays out her sequence for handing work off and how far to step back once you do, then she goes after the self-made badge that so many women in this space wear with pride.

How to Attract A-Players as Employees

Every quarter I open the books. My team sees the revenue, the profit, all of it.Most founders assume their people would head for the door if they saw the full picture, and mine treat those numbers like they belong to them.

None of what keeps great people costs you a dollar. It comes down to four things: how you bring someone in, how much you let them own, how clearly they see where you're headed, and how you treat them on the way out.

I'm walking you through all four, including the ownership shift that stopped me from doing my assistant's job with extra steps and the weekly check-in that catches burnout before it turns into a resignation. Every piece of it sizes down to one contractor and fifteen minutes. The team you'll have in three years is being shaped by how you lead the one person in front of you right now.

Why the Voice Telling You to Play Small Belongs to Someone Else

The sentence that makes you shrink in rooms you earned your way into came out of someone else's mouth first. A teacher, a parent, a boss, an ex. Jam Gamble calls those your "Kanyes," and she's spent her career getting them out of women's heads.

Jam spent 15 years in special education learning to read what people communicate without words, and she now coaches founders, executives, and politicians. She'll teach you how to name the person who planted your Kanye, what to do at 2am when you're replaying a meeting that went south, how to hold your number on a sales call without talking yourself down, and how to stop leaving escape hatches in conversations you meant to end.

RESOURCES MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE:

You want to hit a million in revenue. I've watched a lot of women get close and stall out there, and it's rarely because they weren't working hard enough.

My Live Free Training shows you whether it's your offer, your messaging, or your lead gen costing you the most right now.

The Sorting Exercise That Makes Your Next Hire Obvious

I was making millions and still editing my own training videos. For years. I was fast at it and I was saving money, which is how I justified hoarding work someone else should have owned.

Hiring feels impossible because your work sits in one giant pile in your head, and you can't hand off what you can't see. Today I'm giving you the sorting exercise that pulls that pile apart. Your only-I-can-do-this column comes out smaller than it feels, and who to hire gets obvious fast.

I name the role that lifts the ceiling and what it costs, which is less than you think because you're already paying for most of it in pieces. Not ready for that hire? I'll give you the one hand-off to make this month. Doing it yourself buys you twenty minutes today and charges you those same twenty minutes every single week from now on.

RESOURCES MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE:

You're a multi-six-figure female founder with a coaching, course, or membership business, so you've already proven the model works. But your revenue stays unpredictable because your offer, your messaging, and your lead gen are each built partway, and no amount of effort makes up the difference. My Live Free Training shows you which one is costing you the most right now. Save your spot.
