Hi Reader,
​
I hope you're having an amazing Sunday.
​
I'm sure you don't need the reminder but today is your final day to grab BC Stack along with my bonuses.
​
I recommend not waiting until the last moment because that's when those "Murphy's Law" weird tech snafus are bound to happen.
​
You'll get access to 57+ courses from bloggers, podcasters, marketers, creators, and entrepreneurs for $59.
​
Dan and Rachel have been running BC Stack for 12 years and they always provide huge value in their bundle. This year's theme is about building an online business that can create a full-time income. Fun fact: Did you know they just won History Podcast of the Year?
​
In addition to the products inside the bundle, they're also including a webinar series about building an online business and how to use the products in Stack which is perfect if there are products you might otherwise overlook.
​
I've been enjoying watching the three ring circus unfold with the carnival barkers coming out in full force with their ballooning bonuses that get more inflated with each email. It's been causing my eyes to roll heavenward...possibly to the point it looks like I'm being possessed. 😂
​
These stacks upon stacks of offers can feel like a huge score, but decision fatigue is real.
​
If you're easily overwhelmed like me, this type of bonus stacking is adding fuel to the fire. Especially when you're sifting through a huge pile of stuff after-the-fact, figuring out what you're going to do with it.
​
All these things are taking time away from you actually working on your business.
​
What should you start with? What can wait? What will actually help you move forward? And perhaps most importantly...What are you realistically going to use?
​
I've been receiving some amazing emails about my bonus which is totally validating as it makes me feel like I'm not alone when it comes to the whole bonus craziness. 😆
​
One of my subscribers sent me such a lovely message, it truly lifted my spirits as sometimes you wonder if you're crazy:
​
​You were so right in your assessment of bonus culture...there are still a few people that just create such a crazy long list of mixed up bonuses, that realistically I wouldn’t get any benefit from. You have created something that is generous, useful, and of a particular category, an easy decision.​
​​
That made me feel better as the GPTs I'm offering in my bonus have been months in the making. That's testing, refining, improving. They're not random slapdash bonuses whipped together in an evening. These are tools I use constantly in my own business.
​
Think of my bonus as your path to sidestepping the carnival barkers.
​
Instead I'm inviting you into a private VIP lounge where the cool kids hang. We're sipping Kir Royales and French 75s with a prime view of the frenzied Lollapalooza of bonus madness, feeling relieved that we got to sidestep that sideshow and don't have to elbow our way through the digital mosh pit trying to figure out which of the 47 bonuses we'll actually use.
​
These three GPTs are going to help you actually solve three completely creative problems and nip those late night creation "WTF am I doing moments" in the bud once and for all.
​
These aren't marketing problems, or funnel problems...they're the kind that eat up your time.
​
To recap my bonuses: I'm offering three GPTs. Two are available now and the third I'm still in the middle of testing and refining. Plus an extra bonus that I forgot to mention last time which you can read more about below.

🐿️ The Bulletproof AI Wizard​
​
Ever had a crystal-clear idea in your head that AI stubbornly refuses to create? This is for those moments when you know exactly what you want, but somehow your AI generator didn't get the memo.
​
You keep tweaking, regenerating, fiddling with your prompts endlessly. And an hour later you're still hitting "Generate" hoping lightning will strike and you'll finally get something usable.

Pip (my magical wizard squirrel) has got you covered. Want to evoke a certain style but not sure how to get there without falling back on artist references? That's what this product was originally created for. It knows exactly where to pivot in a way that keeps you on track.
​
Think of it as your personal shortcut to creating consistently stunning images.

✨ Make It a Mood GPT​
​
This is my brand spanking new GPT which is essentially a creative worldbuilding assistant.
​
​Click on the photo or link above to access the sales page. This currently only exists as a post-purchase offer for BC Stack buyers. So if you use my link, it’s already included and you won’t need to purchase it separately.
​​
This GPT was created for those times when your image technically isn't bad. It just feels flat.
​
This is the one to use when you know exactly the feeling you're trying to create and the scene you want to set, but don't have the words (or brain power) to pump out the perfect prompt.
​
You want atmosphere. Emotion. A sense of place. Not just another pretty picture.

That's exactly what this GPT helps you create.
​
Think: one feeling, endless creative directions. 💛

It’s one of my favorite tools for getting OUT of repetitive generic AI art and into creating worlds that feel atmospheric, emotional, cinematic, and uniquely yours.
​
Instead of starting with a prompt, you start with a mood.

A rainy Paris afternoon.
A forgotten seaside motel.
A summer you can't quite remember.
​
From there, the GPT helps you build an entire creative world around that feeling.

And it pairs ridiculously well with the Illustrative AI Selfie Lookbook because once you've created your character or visual style, this helps you create an entire world around it. (And if you already have this product, you should go into your Thrivecart area and download it again as it's been completely updated. 😍)

And finally...my not yet available GPT, the Main Character Generator.
​
This one might be my favorite because it's the natural extension of my Illustrated AI Selfie Lookbook (the one you'll get inside BC Stack.) I created that guide to help you design your own illustrative portraits that feel imaginative and FUN, instead of those photo-real images that can sometimes have that creepy uncanny valley vibe.
​​
​The Lookbook helps you create the portrait with 40 curated prompts.
​
The Main Character Generator is essentially the creative engine behind the Lookbook that helps you discover who that person actually is with endless possibilities.​
​​
This fully immersive GPT helps you create characters, alter egos, aesthetic worlds, visual storylines, and creative identities that go far beyond any one portrait style.
​
Think: Mysterious Parisian botanist, candlelit gothic heroine, surrealist storybook character, Parisian spy…you get the idea.
​
The difference is that instead of manually piecing together ideas, moods, archetypes, and concepts yourself, the GPT does the heavy lifting for you.
​
One click and suddenly you're no longer creating "a portrait."

You're creating:
The Detective.
The Adventurer.
The Stargazer.
The Wanderer.

A character with a story worth exploring in visual form.
​
And honestly? This is the natural progression of the Illustrative Selfie Lookbook ecosystem. 💗
​
Together they solve three frustrations I used to run into constantly:

Not knowing what to create.
Not knowing how to make it feel like something.
And not knowing how to get what's in my head into an image.
​
I’m currently building it and including exclusive pre-launch access to anyone who grabs BC Stack through my link.

This last GPT will be delivered, at the latest, during the last week of June. The others are available right now. I will be adding this onto the BC Stack dashboard as soon as I confirm with Dan which one of the multiple BC Stack 2026 products it should be attached to. If you don't want to wait, just send me an email and I'll give you immediate access.
​
So three GPTs worth $201. I did forget to mention one of my bonuses in my last email. Not because I'm a carnival barker but because I straight up was going on hot dogs and a couple hours of sleep for many days. 🤣

You'll also receive a $37 shop coupon which can net you almost anything in my store. That includes a shiny new GPT during launch (or TWO GPTs in pre-launch if you follow my newsletter and spot them.) And remember my bonuses never expire so you can wait until you find something you really want. (More new things are coming soon.)
​
I really want to get you up and running as fast as possible. And if you're like me, you're trying to be painfully protective of your time.
​
Because if you're anything like me, the goal isn't collecting more stuff. It's actually using it.
​
And if there's one thing I've learned this week, it's that we all have enough tabs open already. 😂
​
If you're still not sure, hit reply and drop me an email and I'm happy to walk you through any questions. 💗

​

Here are a couple other things ending soon.
