A FREE QUIZ FOR COURSE CREATORS & COACHES
What's Standing Between You and a Course That Sells?
 Maybe your course has lived in your head for years. Maybe it's launched and far too quiet. Eight quick questions will show you what's really in the way — and what to do about it this week.
TAKE THE QUIZ →You know you're meant to teach this
You've known for a long time. People ask you about it constantly. You've helped friends, clients, and coworkers with it for free, and somewhere along the way you thought, "I could turn this into a course." That thought never left. What happened next usually goes one of two ways.
You bought the course on how to create a course. Then the one on launching. Maybe a few more after that. You have a Google Doc full of outlines, a platform you're paying for every month, and a name you've changed four times. Every January you tell yourself this is the year. You want it as much as you ever did, because you know this could help people. But it's been two years, or five, or ten — and it's still not finished.
You did finish. You recorded the lessons, built the sales page, wrote the emails, and hit publish with your heart pounding. Then… a couple of sales. Maybe a few more from people who already loved you. You tried a new price, a new headline, a bonus. The students who did buy went quiet around module two. Now you're wondering if the course was ever good enough — or if you are.
Either way, you've started to wonder what's wrong with you.
I've sat with a lot of course creators in both of those spots, so please hear this from me. Nothing is wrong with you, and your idea is probably better than you think.
THE REFRAME
Something is in the way, and it's usually one of four things
 After six years of coaching course creators, I keep seeing the same four things hold a course back. And the online course world has changed a lot — what sold easily in 2021 is a much harder sell today.
The trouble is that from the inside, all four feel the same. They all feel like "I'm stuck." So you end up fixing the wrong thing. You buy another tutorial. You rewrite the sales page again. You tell yourself you need more time. And nothing moves, because that was never the real problem.
That's why I made this quiz. Once you know which one is yours, the next step gets a lot more obvious.
TAKE THE QUIZ →Hi, I'm Lydia.
I know this feeling by heart because I waited six years
For six years I dreamed about having my own business while I sat in a corporate job. I had ideas. I had notebooks. I told myself I'd start once I had it all figured out, and eventually I had to admit that my perfectionism was just another form of fear.
In March 2020 I finally left, two weeks before the world shut down. I didn't have a polished course or a big audience. I ran a free five-day challenge, and 95 people joined a $97 program I hadn't even built yet. So I built it with them, one week at a time, and they finished it.
That way of teaching became the foundation of my business. In the six years since, it has generated over $1.5 million, and I've had the privilege of teaching more than 3,000 students. Along the way I've coached course creators through every kind of stuck there is, including one student who carried her idea around for seven years and had her program ready to launch eight weeks after we started working together.
So when I say I can help you see what's in your way, it's because I've lived one of these four and coached people through the rest.
WHAT YOU'LL WALK AWAY
Three minutes now, clarity you've wanted for years
In about three minutes, you'll know…
Which of the four course creator types
are you right now?
The real reason your course has been stuck,
which is often different from the one you've been blaming.
What's working for course creators todayÂ
and why it fits your situation.
One specific thingÂ
to do this week to get moving again.
There are four types, and one of them is going to sound a lot like you
Each type has a name, its own reason for being stuck, and its own way forward. I'm not going to spoil them here, because reading a list won't tell you which one is yours. Your answers will.
You may already have a guess about what's been holding you back. In my experience, the thing we blame is often not the thing that's really in the way.
