One Year of The Cup –A Heartfelt Milestone!
Dear You First Now Community,
One year ago, I took a leap of faith and launched The Cup, hoping to create a meaningful connection with a community that values knowledge, growth, and vibrating higher.
Today marks a special occasion—our first anniversary! It’s hard to believe it’s been a whole year since I started this newsletter, and I couldn’t be more grateful for the journey we’ve been on together.
Every issue, every insight, and every connection has been made possible because of you.
Reflecting on Our First Year
As I look back on this past year, I’m reminded that growth comes in many forms. While the numbers may not have skyrocketed, the relationships and conversations we’ve built here have been truly meaningful. It’s the depth of connection with readers like you that makes this experience so rewarding.
Each email I’ve sent has been crafted with care, focusing on sharing valuable insights, personal stories, and moments of reflection. And hearing from you—whether through thoughtful feedback, questions, or your own stories—has been the most rewarding part of this journey.
Our Achievements Together
In the past 12 months, we’ve:
Sent 12 newsletters filled with ideas and inspiration
Built a growing community of 224 engaged readers
Received invaluable feedback that has helped shape the direction of this newsletter
The road hasn’t always been easy, but I’m proud of the consistent effort, the focus on quality over quantity, and the passion that goes into each issue.
Looking Ahead – What’s Next?
As we move into our second year, I’m excited to continue evolving and improving.
Here’s a glimpse of what’s on the horizon:
More Tailored Content: I’ll continue to focus on the topics that resonate most with you, refining the content to better meet your interests.
Expanding the Circle: Slowly but surely, we’ll grow, and I’d love for you to help by sharing this newsletter with others who would benefit.
New Surprises: Expect fresh features, deeper insights, and more ways for us to connect and grow together.
A Special Thank You
I want to take this moment to thank you from the bottom of my heart. Whether you’ve been here since the very beginning or joined us recently, your presence and support have made this journey worthwhile. It’s your engagement that keeps this community alive and thriving, and for that, I am deeply grateful. Your support, whether through reading, sharing, or reaching out, means more than words can express.
Let’s continue this journey together. The road ahead is filled with potential, and I can’t wait to see where it takes us.
With gratitude and excitement for what’s to come,
Elizabeth Z. McDonough
