Launching feels different right now, and you’re not imagining it. In this final episode of the January launch series, Jodie zooms out to explain what’s changing in the online space, why even industry giants are pivoting their launch models, and how to build a launch approach that fits how you teach, sell, and want your business to feel.

You’ll hear why this isn’t about finding a new silver bullet. It’s about adopting an experimental mindset, strengthening the foundations underneath your launch, and focusing on what creates demand and conversions in 2026.

1. Why the “one perfect launch style” narrative is falling apart
2. What creator pivots really mean and why it’s not hypocrisy
3. Why audiences take longer to trust and why context matters more now
4. Why aggressive short open carts are phasing out
5. The core four requirements every launch needs, no matter the method
6. How webinars, challenges, mini offers, and direct launches all do the same job differently
7. Why copying someone else’s launch rarely works the way you think it will
8. Why “the messaging matters more than the messenger” matters more than ever
9. How to make launches feel calmer, repeatable, and improvable over time

1. Markets evolve, and entrepreneurs are allowed to evolve too
2. You don’t need to “keep up” and you do need stronger foundations
3. Launching is an ecosystem, not a single tactic
4. The goal is repeatable results, not one-off hype cycles

1. Sought After Educator enrollment is open at time of recording and closes February 1, 2026
2. If you’re listening after doors close, join the waitlist to be notified when they reopen later in 2026
