🚀 Inside the Momentum Weekend Workshop: New Sessions & Strategies

Hey Reader! I hope you're having a great week! After the last email I sent, I received a lot of great questions about Momentum itself: "What days are you covering what?" "Who else is speaking?" "What's actually going to be different this year?" “What makes Momentum different from every other event?” So today, I wanted to pull back the curtain a little and share more about what we’re building for this October in Walt Disney World... I think this is going to be our best Momentum yet!...

Your Guide to Disney Parks & Experiences Hello Reader, How is your week going so far? Me? I am head-down, knee-deep, and all-in on my D23: The Ultimate Disney Fan Event prep! I can't believe it's just a (yikes!!!) few weeks away, but I'm planning some really fun things (and VERY cool giveaways - AND a Grand Prize!) for our WDW Radio booth on the show floor! Stay tuned for more details soon! But can I tell you about something else that I've been thinking about the last couple of weeks? And no,...

Your Guide to Disney Parks & Experiences Hello Reader, Sorry this week's newsletter is a little late. I had a speaking engagement this week, where I shared Leadership Lessons from Walt Disney, and am deep deeeeeeeeepppppp into planning and preparing the WDW Radio booth for D23: The Ultimate Disney Fan Experience in (yikes!) just a few weeks! But let me start off by asking you something. What's the weirdest or most unexpected piece of Disney merch you own? Not the most expensive. Not the...

Your Guide to Disney Parks & Experiences Hello Reader, I did something this week I don’t normally do… because so many of you have been asking me about it all week long. You may have heard (lol)… there is a new rule at Disney Springs. As of June 28th, you can only hop the resort buses and boats from Springs if you are actually staying at a resort or you have a dining reservation. I've said this for years, and this past week was a perfect example: when Disney changes something… anything… a...

Your Guide to Disney Parks & Experiences Hello, my friend! 👋 You may have been to a Momentum event before... so it's possible you already know that Momentum isn't your typical business event. This year? It's the most intentional lineup I've ever put together. Every speaker, every session, every day has been designed around one goal: you leaving Orlando with more than inspiration. You'll leave with a real, documented plan for growing, scaling, and monetizing your business. And you won't just...

Hey Reader! We're a few months away from the Momentum Weekend Workshop (breathe, Lou!): a 1-room, 50-person, 4-day event for solopreneurs and creators. Since 2016, this event has helped attendees monetize, market, and grow their brands... and ultimately turn their passions into profit. One question I get all the time is: "What makes this event different from other conferences?" My answer? Well, it's two-fold. First and foremost, it's different for the community you find in the room. It's the...

Hey Reader! You may have been to a Momentum event before... so it's possible you know that Momentum is not your typical business event. This year? It's the most intentional lineup I've ever put together. Every speaker, every session, every day has been designed around one goal: you leaving Orlando with more than inspiration. You'll leave with a real, documented plan for growing, scaling, and monetizing your business. And you won't just learn it. You'll build it while you're in the room. I'm...

Lou Mongello and Jesse Cole, founder of Banana Ball at Walt Disney World

Your Guide to Disney Parks & Experiences Hello, my friend! I have to be honest with you about something. I thought this week's podcast was going to be an interview about baseball. It was not. Standing on the field at ESPN Wide World of Sports with Jesse Cole - founder of the Savannah Bananas - the conversation became something I did not expect. Jesse talked about Walt. About the Walt Disney World experience he had as a kid that stayed with him for decades and became the seed of everything he...

Your Guide to Disney Parks & Experiences Hey [FIRST NAME]! I hope your week has been filled with a little magic! There's been some fun and fascinating Disney announcements and conversations recently (including in the Clubhouse), right? And have you checked out this week's podcast yet? Over the past few months, I have received a number of great questions from our WDW Radio family about my Momentum Weekend Workshop this October 15-18 in Walt Disney World, including: "What are the days actually...
