What Is A Mastermind Group And Why I Joined One

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

I’m so excited to share some of my recent mastermind retreat to Chicago with you, and I’ve had a lot of questions about what a mastermind group is and how to join. Today, we’re going to talk about the benefits of a mastermind group, what a mastermind group is, and whether joining or creating one might be a good idea for you.
I’ll also be sharing vlog footage of the trip, which was amazing by the way. If you’re interested in learning more about Amber McCue and her mastermind groups, head over to ambermccue.com/ . She has a podcast, a fun Instagram, and a great seasonal Facebook group, and her main program, The Modern CEO. Click “Programs” to learn more about Accelerate and other offerings from Amber.
Professional Photos at the retreat were taken by Meagan Conrad.
The jazz group we had the privilege to hear was Isaiah Collier & The Chosen Few. They blew my mind!
Let me know if you have any other questions!

    I'm a member of a writers' mastermind and we write Monday through Friday, 2 sessions a day. I've written 2 novels since July which will come out this summer. And we're all doing amazing projects. Interestingly enough most of us are alumni of HB90 and Publish and Thrive. We're always referencing Sarra.

    I would LOVE a mastermind group. A mastermind/accountability group is what I really need. I am rarely on FB as it it too distracting/overwhelming for me, so I don't get as much out of groups as I used to. A smaller, more connected group would work so much better for me! And I would love a HB retreat!! Make it happen, Sarra!

    Well, I've had 2 critique groups, both of which I did for years and that have just petered out over time. I really am wanting to get back with authors again. It so helps my creative energy. I've never heard of a mastermind group before but it looks very interesting. I think it could help me to the next level. I would love an author one and one that has business people too. I can do the creative side, no problem, but the business side is a huge drain on my resources and my energy. I've been seriously considering whether I should keep going or not. Maybe something like this would help me get my excitement back. A retreat would be amazing.

    Oh my goodness, it looks like you had a blast, and this just made me miss Chicago so much! (I relocated to Cali just before COVID) I've always loved the idea of being part of a mastermind (or hosting/attending salons), but I kind of feel like I shouldn't join one until I've published my first book; like I wouldn't have anything to offer a group until I've done that part. Maybe I'm thinking about it the wrong way? Either way, I would LOVE to be part of an in-person retreat or Mastermind if you decide to start one (bandwidth willing, of course)!

I'd love to be a part of a group that helps with plotting or scene development. I use tarot to plot and once I've moved into my new place, I'm going to start filming YT videos on this! Scared to death to start this venture, but if authors only knew how awesome and enlightening tarot can be, everyone would start using it. :-)
