The Sylvia Method

This is Our Time

Recall these two feelings…even if they seem like a distant thought right now. First thought: You desperately need to get away, go on vacation, get a change of scenery. Anywhere but here.

And then the second thought: Wow, that felt great. I really needed that. I now have a fresh perspective on all kinds of things. And, I’m ready to come back home.

With fresh eyes. New outlook. Here we go.

But then, you get back, and it doesn’t take long before all those calming, uplifting thoughts from your time away, disappear. And then you slide back back into old habits, the same old the ways of seeing and doing things that you had specifically told yourself you would change. Or overcome. Or grow out of.

I guess I had some of these thoughts on my mind as I was looking through some old audio files, when I came across an audio diary recorded by Dr. Sylvia Struck.

Sylvia lives and works in Vancouver, Canada, as a public health professional with the First Nations Health Authority. Sylvie leads projects to create, develop and sustain safe water policies, services and systems to over 360 First Nations communities, for long-term sustainable access to safe drinking water.

I bet you’ve had these thoughts too. Let’s call them vacation thoughts. Downtime mindset. So now it’s early June, and as we prepare for summer time, whether it’s time away, or downtime, or time away from the usual routine, let’s try what Sylvia method.
Sylvia made a pledge to herself….specifically about how to move on from a big experience in a way that you take some of it with you. If you listen, you’ll hear what her pledge was, and then see if something like this fits you in your life. Could it help make a difference? Would it help to carry these good-vibe relaxed times back into your daily life?

This story originally appeared in my newsletter, Audio Love. That’s my email newsletter that I’ve been sending every other week, for over a year, to a small, but committed audience.

Did you know that email marketing is the number one channel for creators to connect with their audience? And it’s huge. ConvertKit, which the email platform that I use, which is only one of the ones available, report that last year over 16 billion emails sent.

And according to the Data and Marketing Association, who did a survey in 2021, 92% of consumers, and 72% of marketers, said that Email is their favourite way to connect with customers.

So here’s why I’m telling you all of this. When I sat down to map out an email strategy last year, I realized, that despite the fact that I’ve been using email since it started, I actually didn’t know how to do it for this post-modern era. So, I went a found a course to take…and this month, I’ve decided to join forces with this woman, whose name is Tarzan, unforgettable, and help her to sell her flagship program, Email Stars, as an affiliate.

If you’re curious to learn more about how to up your game on email, Tarzan is hosting some SUPER AWESOME free workshops this month. To find out more, go to
