By diversifying into group coaching and online courses, you can potentially serve more people at once, thus increasing your revenue streams. Group programs and online courses can be created once and sold multiple times.

Mama Needs a MovieDune with Jon DalyActor, writer Jon Daly (Ding Dong Delicious) joins for an epic discussion of David Lynch's 1984 version of the science fiction classic DUNE starring Kyle MacLachlan, Virginia Madsen, Patrick Stewart, Kenneth McMillan, Dean Stockwell, Max von Sydow, and Sting. Based on author Frank Herbert's mammoth novel, DUNE was conceived as a mega-budget blockbuster to follow in the footsteps of STAR WARS, only to be met with scathing reviews and a disappointing box office take. In the decades since DUNE, Lynch repeatedly proved his dark genius with more sinister original films, demanding reevaluations of his most commercial, yet least successful directorial...
