Claudia, this is gold. And yes, it seems to be the pulse of what’s happening on Substack right now. The shift from ‘hidden coffee corner’ to a full-blown online home is spot on, and it’s super exciting. I love how you’re emphasizing community, authenticity, and owning your audience. That’s the real edge in a world drowning in AI-generated noise.

Your point about joy being a magnet for energy is paramount. It’s easy to get caught up in the grind, but fun and connection are what keep this whole thing alive. Thanks for the reminder to lean into that.
