Is your course secretly setting your students up to fail? In this episode of Your Community Strategist, I unpack why most courses are still designed for 2020—and how that’s leaving 85% of your students feeling overwhelmed, guilty, and disconnected.
🎯 The reality check: binge-worthy content might work for Netflix, but it’s silently killing your course completion rates. What your students really need is a shift from content delivery to community-integrated learning.
You’ll discover:
▸ Why course completion rates are stuck at 15% (and how to flip that number on its head)
▸ The five elements of community-integrated learning that transform content into actual results
▸ Why transformation doesn’t happen in isolation—and how to design for connection from day one
▸ Simple ways to build accountability, support, and celebration into your course (without burning out)
▸ How shorter, more focused lessons paired with community application can skyrocket engagement
Whether you’re a course creator, membership leader, or summit host—this episode shows you how to create experiences your students actually finish (and rave about). Because in 2025, it’s not about polished modules, it’s about building courses that truly change lives.
