From Clubhouse to Cauldron ✨
Design Your Life Club on Substack is becoming Product Potion—a more focused, magical brew of growth, product, and delight.
Hey there, it’s been a minute.
Let’s be real—I stretched myself too thin trying to be everywhere at once. Mixed focus = creative burnout. So I’m trimming the fat, simplifying the magic, and putting my energy into one singular thing: a brand new newsletter.
Introducing… Product Potion.
You don’t have to do a thing. You’ll continue getting emails under a new name.
But first, I want your feedback.
People see “Design Your Life Club” and usually think they know what it’s about. But I don’t want to make assumptions. So I have 3 short, spicy questions that’ll help me shape this transition for you:
Why did you hit subscribe?
That’s the biggie. Tell me your honest thoughts in this three-question survey. No fluff, no forms that feel like therapy. 😌
So… What is Product Potion?
It’s a free weekly drop of 5-minute growth ‘potions’—bite-sized strategies that spark product and business success. Think of it as your secret weapon for unconventional, real-world wins.
I’ve noticed a common gap: folks in product and design often don’t connect how “X” influences “Y,” Like how a tiny UX tweak can spike retention. Or how specific unnoticed psychological triggers focus certain behaviors.
That’s where Product Potion steps in. We bridge those gaps with real examples, growth moves, and mindset shifts — with a wink of weirdness from yours truly because I like making things interesting (per usual).
Why Product Potion
Big Wins, Minus the Fluff
Battle-tested case studies and unexpected angles you can actually use.
Rebel Perspectives
We don’t do basic. We do bold, offbeat, and occasionally bizarre (on purpose).
Career Building for the Curious
You don’t need an MBA to build something great. Whether you’re pivoting careers or building from scratch—there’s room at the table.
Quick Consumption
Read it during a coffee break (or potion break, if you’re brand-aligned).
Because honestly? The dots in your product, business, and life won’t connect themselves.
Here’s what you’ll get:
5-Minute Growth Strategies: Each issue breaks down one powerful growth lever—why it works and how to implement it.
Real-Life Examples: The good, the bad, and the “why didn’t I think of that?” moments from real products and real people.
A Hint of Magic: Self-improvement tools so you grow alongside your business. Burnout isn’t the vibe.
What’s Next?
Keep your eyes peeled—next week, you’ll get your first Product Potion email straight from me.
And if you could take a quick moment to fill out the 2-minute survey, it’ll help me make sure this transformation is genuinely useful, not just a rebrand with a fancy hat.
I have ideas for Design Your Life Club in the future, making this more of an exclusive place for people to build and work together and entrepreneurs (because we all need more like-minded friends for growth). If that’s of interest, shoot me a message or comment.
Thanks for being here!
Stay curious. Stay weird. Stay tuned.
