Sep 29 | THE Monday Report
A small, certain reward now is more valuable than a big, uncertain promise later. Real results beat hopeful dreams every time.
FITLETE Professional Update
The Resource Nexus
— 🌶️🌶️🌶️Here are some end-of-Quarter 3 statistics I wish to share regarding the site. I believe it is crucial to present this information here and express my gratitude for your valuable assistance in conveying the message, mission, and features that FITLETE has to offer to our community.
The top-performing month was July, during which we experienced a 67% increase in organic website traffic to the home page and the Resource Nexus page. Google search impressions are up 46%. USA still holds the top spot for countries using the site(with Germany, UK, South Korea & France rounding out the top 5). The Website still sits around the 30th spot in most search results. (I have to improve this.)
The Podcast is closing in on 4,000 total downloads since starting the Coaches Spotlight Series, Season 2. The top three most listened-to podcasts as of today are Sarah Polacco, Phil Dominguez, and Kate Moore. Season 2’s leader thus far is Dr. Becky Rucker. Surprisingly, most people listen to the episode directly from the newsletter, then through Apple Podcasts. I was surprised to see Spotify down in the 5th slot!
Even though this quarter has seen a 5.3% drop in total views compared to last quarter, the most encouraging part for me is that The Monday Report has a 42.7% Open rate, and it continues to creep up each quarter. So, thank you so much for tuning in and sharing!

Personal Update
— 🌶️The vacation was fantastic(Went to Pahos, Cyprus, and London, England), and I’m thrilled to be back at the helm, working with clients again. Today definitely felt like a typical Monday, if you know what I mean. lol I returned to the site, and of course, the water cooler isn’t working all of a sudden, so I’ll need to spend some time between clients and during lunch trying to troubleshoot this new issue. It threw off the plans I had for the day, and I still haven’t managed to fix it yet. It’s a bit frustrating, but I remind myself that it’s a problem I’m facing in a situation I’ve chosen, working for myself, so I try not to get too upset about it when I reflect on everything.
