The audio kept going in and out making it difficult to hear and get the information shared.

I was bored after the first 15 minutes. Your story was good, but there was 30 minutes of other people's stories. I was really excited about your webinar, but I have a short attention span. If you wanted me to sign up for your master class, tell me the goods. I would have been more inclined to sign up right away. Maybe next time. Thank you anyways.

I believe there were some great points but I was unable to really watch anything. I saw that other people were having issues viewing the class which led me to believe that the problem was not my phone. The small bits of information I did hear seemed to have been somewhat inspiring. I'm excited to receive the slides of the class as it would allow me to learn something.

The connection was horrible. I guess I wasn’t one of the lucky 270 people.

It was very clearly pre-recorded, as everything referred to 2019. About a half an hour in and I still hadn't learned anything. It was a sales pitch

There was a disconnect from the content to what was promised. I do appreciate Angela you stated in the begining this is not a webinar on "writing technique, editing, or the process." With that being said, it was a webinar on how you leveraged your career, weight loss journey, and personal coaching strategy into a business. This turned into a sales pitch and putting up 15K for "leads" with a hope of ROI to be 144K+/year had little to nothing to do with writing a book. To my understanding, individuals are only accepted into your "program" that have self help motives (like loosing weight, going through grief/divorce). You need to market this strategy better and the 90-day book completion is not it!

I prefer to focus on the positive because the negative is usually irrelevant as the value of a person's work or a course like this is in the good it brings. And I believe this course brings much good to the table immediately so that even if a person wants to write a book or website or develop a business without buying into the product per se, they should be enriched by the advertisement. You bring to the table specific suggestions and more or less a specific plan which if followed should help a person succeed provided they can do it on their own. And like you said, for some, that is the better way to go. But the kicker smacks of what it was probably intended to be--a high pressured, reverse psychology claim that if you're *really* committed, that if you *really* want to do something great for the world, money will not be an object and you will throw away all wisdom and run to every relative and friend and risk wrecking relationships just to be successful in this endeavor, and this starts by sending you whatever amount of money you decide to ask for later. You must *believe* in it and in yourself. Another thing that bothered me was the underlying insinuation, or nearly blatant implication that this would be a hostile work environment for a straight male WASP, which except for the Protestant part describes me. To discriminate against people in that demographic to me would be akin to bathrooms and drinking fountains labeled "for white only" or "for colored people only". Yet many professors in university English departments seem to be hired for the purpose of forcing that kind of bigotry onto everyone who would want to graduate or pass their required general education courses with a decent grade. And they will win their arguments with some, and write off and hate and reject the others seeking to destroy them. To me, that's not inclusive or loving. The frequent use of F-bombs seems to be a micro-agression with an underlying message of "This is not for you, Christians". It's like posting a sign saying "No Kikes or Niggers or Honkeys or Chinks Allowed". I know many people of my color and gender have become accustomed to apologizing. We apologize for being white. For being male. For being straight. Or for having a religion that doesn't believe in practicing homosexuality. It's ok not to believe in eating pork or drinking coffee or anything else, but sexual orientations MUST be protected as though each were an endangered species, and as though people could actually be born while performing the acts by which those orientations would be defined. It is not so much that the beliefs proffered are utterly irrational, but that the hatred, the violation of free speech, the violation of freedom of religion, the intolerance for a different opinion regardless of whether it actually results in real hatred or real abuse or whether it is embraced with respect and love for those with different beliefs and values, the fact there is a difference cannot be tolerated. And if there is intolerance for the rights to believe different or the right to be male or the right to be born white, then I find it difficult to recommend the course even if much about it is wonderful and to be appreciated greatly. I do hope this will be helpful to you though.

Sorry. It was so slow I just couldn’t stay with it. If there is something to teach I figure you’ll just teach it. Not drag it out. Maybe there’s a purpose to your method and it’s just wasted on me.

I couldn’t watch the whole webinar and would probably write a better review if I wasn’t forced to do it before getting the slides so I can actually see what I think about the webinar.

The training was too long over 2 hours. It is understood to give examples of successful authors which gives credibility to the organization. However, taking two hours to get the the application link was unnecessary. Sharing a few examples and getting to the point of applying with information to apply and be done.

This is a bread sandwich. If you truly wanted to allow people to benefit from your program and you are so good at vetting your clients, you should only ask for a portion of the income. Just like any other publisher who gives an author an advance, your advance should come via services offered. If you were truly guided by love and light, you would guide as many through the process as you could to bring more money into the hands of those who would likely use it to benefit humankind. As soon as you said you could not tell us what your services would cost because you were waiting for the results of the supply and demand figures to see how much you could charge I turned you off. I live to serve the universe. I have been minister since 1997. I know my own worth. I have too many things to do in this life and no money to do it with. I keep putting one foot in front of the other and I will make it down the road. You spend too much time talking about the money. I'll share it with you if we can get it done together. Back me because you believe in me. Or not, I guess.

The things that were said regarding becoming the you that the world should see and know through your writing are spot on. Once the talk turned to white supremacy and politics, it was disappointing to see someone who champions tolerance, inclusion, and diversity isolate and marginalize a group of people rather than taking the time to understand their perspective. I was interested in working with the program, but not at the cost of my principles, standards, and values. I hold no ill will for people unless they are criminals or terrorists, but I will also not be redefined, marginalized, or misinterpreted by those who disagree with me on a philosophical or political level.

Unfortunately, technical issues ruined my experience as I was not able to hear a thing. I tried refreshing several times, and still had issues. When I brought up the concern that I couldn't hear, the only response I got was to keep refreshing my page. Eventually, I decided to devote my time to other activities as this felt unproductive.

You were at times...rude. You offer a free class in order one would assume, to pay it forward yet you said more than a couple of times your "extremely hard left/liberal stance. You felt the need to push that point repeatedly. And claimed if any have an issue w/ that to "not waste time and this isnt for you" why did you get political? This was a class! One woman questioned the length and you clearly got defensive...you do not know what her need was for asking?!! Then when I follow your advice and restart it did not let me back in... so unprofessional you are. Very disappointed...

I love your stories and I love to work with you on a Book. As I have a great story from feedback one early chapters. With that, to much time on you.. I get it, congrats and each of us has a story. People's stories are important. I was lost though through it all and went off line so never got to the elevator pitch.

The virtual preaching/begging for others to accept debt for the program...too much like TV evangelism. You're asking for a big risk investment, (to possibly some of us with massive student debt) to invest more in a program that 4 examples were given for success. No risk, no reward, but speculating on yourself when one's already done that and the rewards were minimal, isn't practical or logical. It comes across as if she's selling her own program; the basis of 4 great paying clients a month to generate wealth...is exactly what she's applying. If anything, it turned me off completely.
