I left behind LinkedIn and there I followed Justin and many others. Substack was the breath of fresh air. So no, I’m not following the big influencers. I don’t care to hustle and build an empire. Someone said they didn’t understand the haters. I don’t hate on Justin. He can do his thing. I’m just not going to follow him because I don’t need that noise. It’s a world I left behind because I was tired of the advice and prompting to build my kingdom. I’m striving for a passive social media life not sitting on this platform for hours a day.
This felt like a deep breath in a room full of noise. Thank you for reminding us that authenticity isn’t just allowed here, it’s the whole point. Substack feels a little more human because of voices like yours.
After just having a minor wobble this week that 1) my post for today wasn’t a tip or prompt but me admitting it’s hard and 2) noticed JWs arrival and thought why is it so hard for me in comparison - this post has been the perfect antidote. Thank you.
We’re going through such similar inner stuff. This whole thing is so much harder than it looks from the outside, but the important thing is that, one way or another, we each find our way through it and keep going.
I fell in love with Substack because it lacked the noise and the constant push for “more”. The creators are genuine, open, interactive and personable. I know it’s currently the new next big thing, but I love that it still has its core vibe.
Thank you, Andi... 😊 love this post especially since I thought if I am still right here because of the big one coming here with all the bells and whistles. I even wrote a post about. But yours is better 😀... it motivated me that I am still right and can create on my own terms 💯.
I just need to add this: I'm not happy that they share the same content here as elsewhere. I was hoping they'd show a different side of themselves here. But it's okay, they do their work, and we do ours too :)

Love the title!
I'm SO behind this message 👏🏼
We do love him but we can't all be him!
Love this post, so validating, thank you!
Perfect. We can’t all be a “Justin Welsh,” And we shouldn’t even try

Yes! It really is and it’s a really unsexy part to celebrate the continue to move forward but it’s that!

Honestly I do not follow them here nor elsewhere 😀... here are much better creators and writers to follow, to listen and to read like you!
Agree :)
"Stop trying to impress!" Yesssss. Substack doesn't play favors. You can get noticed no matter how small your account is.
I loved this! We’ve gotta stop putting these agency-backed gurus on pedestals and holding ourselves to their hustle standards.
What if we just focused on what’s right for us? 🤷♀️🫶
Nice makeup. I'm intrigued.
