⚡️ Ugh...I hate this question

Hey Reader,

What do you want to be known for?

Isn’t that the worst question ever? It’s so hard to answer.

Because the second you try to put it into words, your brain offers you a pile of phrases like:

“Empowering the next generation of leaders”
“Build a business you love”
“Unlocking your passion & purpose”

In other words? The Unholy Trinity of Boring strikes again.

And in a sophisticated, oversaturated market, boring = invisible.

We’ve already talked about how your client’s brain filters out anything that feels too familiar, too vague, too predictable, too been-there-done-that.

So, how do you actually get their attention?

You give their brain a wake-up call. You say something that it hasn’t heard before.

You become known for a specific idea that makes your message unignorable.


Think about:

  • James Clear: Atomic Habits
  • Brené Brown: Vulnerability
  • Simon Sinek: Start with Why
  • Wes Kao: Spiky Point of View

Each one of them is known for an idea. Not their niche. Not their deliverables. An idea that stands out, opens a curiosity loop, and drives demand.

That’s what a 3 Word Rebellion does for your business.

It links your work to a big idea. It opens a loop that makes people wonder: “What does that mean—and how does it apply to me?” And if your content does its job? That curiosity lands them in your world, your offers, and eventually your client roster.

Link → Loop → Land. That’s the science of how standout messages get remembered—and get results.


So, if you’re asking yourself:

“How do I figure out what I want to be known for—and how the hell do I say it?”

That’s exactly what the 3 Word Rebellion Sprint inside The Expert Up Club is designed to do.

We’re kicking it off this August. And this time, it’s easier than ever because Moxie—my AI marketing sidekick—will be there to help you brainstorm, refine, and test your rebellion in real time.

You bring the ideas. We’ll help you turn them into an unignorable message.

More details are coming soon, but if you’re already feeling the tug—why wait?
