WGM #38 Recording + WGM EOY Survey Last Call
Such an amazing call yesterday on .
Wanted to share recording early so people have a chance to watch before EOY.
Also, want to remind everyone again to please fill out the ideally before Christmas.
We're gonna create a really special report off the data that you won't want to miss.
If you fill it out, you get it. If you don't sadly, you won't!
Happy Holidays everyone!!

this is a great reminder to get someone from Canyon Ranch in the group!! i'm sure they have great people

This is a big reason why WGM exits! It's important to find people who've been there/done that to save time and $$
#asks-offers-advice - December 15, 2025 at 09:10 PM
woo! could be an interesting question for our new youtube extrodinaire <@U0A3557AUPJ>
#random - December 15, 2025 at 03:11 PM
maybe i make this a WGM perk and we ping Dylan @Johness Dailay 👀
#random - December 15, 2025 at 03:11 PM
@John LaGue can share his experience!
#random - December 15, 2025 at 03:11 PM

#random - December 15, 2025 at 03:10 PM
#asks-offers-advice - December 15, 2025 at 02:17 PM
NICE! Dylan is awesome and honestly no reason he isn't on this slack yet!
#asks-offers-advice - December 15, 2025 at 01:42 PM
@John LaGue how was the trip? did you end up doing a scan? btw think you and <@U09JF6GD4GZ> would have some great convos
#intros - December 15, 2025 at 01:21 PM
SOOO pumped to have such a Youtube expert in here. Welcome!

#asks-offers-advice - December 11, 2025 at 08:03 PM

welcome! so great to have you and what a great founder story!
#asks-offers-advice - December 09, 2025 at 02:40 PM
Sounds like a fun retreat! Not a direct match but maybe <@U0913JDBH4J> or @Caite Opfer have some ideas on how to find local photogs!
#wgm-irl-connects - December 08, 2025 at 04:38 PM
love it! wish i could make it but maybe some NYCers like @Dom D'Alexander or @Maya Ayedor <@U092V7BBL6L> could use a reset too!
#asks-offers-advice - December 08, 2025 at 04:36 PM
super interesting topic! feel like @Joe Cannon <@U096SSKTLV9> <@U0A1CQ6CZ8D> @Kurt Hildebrandt <@U09GZK4AS95> @Lindsey Alger might have some thoughts to name a few!
#asks-offers-advice - December 08, 2025 at 03:06 PM
#asks-offers-advice - December 08, 2025 at 03:06 PM
here is the invite to join WGM group (whatever that means!)
#asks-offers-advice - December 08, 2025 at 03:05 PM
cool! how did they find it useful? what are you imagining using it for??
#asks-offers-advice - December 08, 2025 at 02:54 PM
very cool! feel like <@U092V7BBL6L> @Louisa Li @Nao Yukawa and @Yuli Ziv might be interested to know about that!
#asks-offers-advice - December 05, 2025 at 10:11 PM
I have the free version and am thinking of creating a Happenstance group for WGM. Could be useful??
#asks-offers-advice - December 05, 2025 at 08:55 PM
<@U09U82JPDV2> @Simal Adenwala and @Steve Cole might know someone!
#random - December 05, 2025 at 04:41 PM
I really love end of year reflections and always liked how does his. Hope I can find some time to do it this year! 😅
Anyone else have end of year reflections or traditions they enjoy??
#linkedin-boosts - December 04, 2025 at 04:39 PM
thank YOU for sharing. very psyched to dig in here....might even start doing a WGM roundup every week of cool nuggets we see from people on this list!
#linkedin-boosts - December 04, 2025 at 04:37 PM
Gotta shout out <@U0913JDBH4J> for a super useful Linkedin post about who to follow for certain topics. Great post with a lotta value.
BTW I am thinking maybe this channel can be for people nominating other member's posts from now on so it feels more communal and authenic rather than self promotey? Open to ideas!!
#job-board - December 03, 2025 at 08:06 PM
very cool! <@U0913JDBH4J> any ideas?
#job-board - December 03, 2025 at 08:06 PM
feel like @Tom Fowler and <@U090MDXE7R9> might know some people?
#asks-offers-advice - December 03, 2025 at 08:02 PM
WOW this sounds super smart and excited to hear how it goes......some people who come to mind who might have some 2 cents are <@U09V4GB3J1K> <@U09GS3W55L0> and maybe <@U09GBH12VG8> (likely just flaggin for him to follow)?
#asks-offers-advice - December 03, 2025 at 07:56 PM
this is a shot in the dark but maybe @Sam Faillace or @Jared Koch or @David Peikon or <@U096XUK1Z6W> has idea? also @Lara Hemeryck on the thought leadership side of things
#announcements - December 02, 2025 at 09:41 PM
haha OK we need the guys to step up to the challenge @Bishoy Tadros @adam wilkins @John LaGue @Kurt Hildebrandt @Steven Puri lets represent!! 👨🦰
#random - December 02, 2025 at 09:38 PM
very cool! would love to add it to the investor list in a few months. CCing @Nate Kline mostly so we can hang at a bar and have fun!
#events-and-visibility-opps - December 02, 2025 at 09:36 PM
looks amazing! maybe @Olivia Bowser or @Maya Ayed could give some snack-esque gift bag contributions?
#asks-offers-advice - December 02, 2025 at 09:34 PM
great question <@U096SSKTLV9>. thanks for posting.
this is very cool! maybe <@U08UGG001SL> <@U09A48BEBLH> @Lee Braun @Kelleigh Whelan can chime in on ROI?
Erewhon obviously has very high loyalty but also curious if it can translate!
#asks-offers-advice - December 02, 2025 at 03:03 PM
such a thoughtful and useful share! I'll try to remember to resurface this next year and share with people!! 😅
#intros - December 01, 2025 at 08:50 PM
