Your Community, Your Content ✍

Dear Co-x3 Community,
This week, we talk about content - this is your community, so what we share is in your control.
You may notice that our newsletter looks a little different today! Our loyal readers Naya Moss and Drew West have been extremely helpful this week by giving us creative feedback on how we can improve our newsletters to more digestible and engaging. A big thank you to them!
It's been a fantastic week for our community - here are some highlights:
v2 of our daily standup sessions have been initiated to help community members stay accountable and productive throughout their day! We've now created an editable notion page with built-in formulas to help you track your progress on a daily, weekly, and monthly level.
In our weekly council meetings, we help each other with specific problems we identified in our week. This week's topics: Hiring a personal assistant, motivation with wins, dealing with grief, having a productive week, gamification for distributed thinkers, and much more. It was a thought-provoking session - watch it here if you missed it! →
We broke Notion's API with our guide on how to use Notion as a CMS! It took a few hours of trial and error to create a workaround, read the full story here →
We held our first Office Hours Friday (Build with me!) private youtube live event, I had a blast sharing my process with you all, and hope you guys learned a ton of tips and tricks that will be helpful in your weekend customization. If you missed it, watch the replay here →
🧰 Co-x3 Community Toolbox Updates
Minor Release: New Star Wars 'The Clone Wars' theme submitted by Brad White, Updated user guide to include walkthrough videos, new resources on how to use view effectively.

A big shoutout to our 2 newest annual patrons 🎉: Karen and Cass!
Every week, I am deeply honest about important topics.
We had our first ever masterclass on Saturday to share about our 3 mindsets, immortalizing successful projects, and how to reflect using meaningful data from your databases. Drew left a wonderful summary in the comments, so do check the link above to claim your recording as a Co-x3 Community Member!
Constant learning is an important part of your growth journey, and I try to read as much as I can to learn as fast as I can. Every week, I'll share key insights from the best pieces of content I digest.
Quote: "A community is where people can begin to connect with each other" - Pat Flynn
I love the fact that we've been able to create such a vibrant community where all our members can find their own niche of how to be helpful to each other.
As social animals, we crave connection, and now more than ever.
So don't be shy to express your passion! We always welcome new community run-intiatives.
Let's get highly motivated to personally develop ourselves, develop accountability, and collaborate to bring positive social impacts to our local and global communities. View our weekly schedule →
