See how I’m building and scaling HobbyScool, in real time, decision by decision.

You’re Not Stuck, You’re Deciding Without Enough Support

Most creators don’t stall because they’re lazy or unfocused.


They stall because:

  • everything feels important
  • every idea could work
  • stopping one thing feels risky
  • committing to one path feels irreversible

So you hedge.
You keep multiple things moving.
You stay busy.
You avoid fully committing, just in case.


From the outside, it looks like progress.
From the inside, it feels like carrying everything in your head.

That’s the problem this Experiment exists to solve.

See how the decisions are being made

This is for creators who are doing a lot right — and still unsure what actually matters next

You might recognize yourself here:

  • Your business is stable, but fragile
  • You’ve made sales, but consistency still feels shaky
  • You’re running lean, maybe solo or with a small team
  • You don’t need motivation, you need clarity
  • You’re tired of rebuilding instead of stacking progress

You don’t want another framework.
You want to see how real decisions get made when there’s no obvious right answer.

Recently, I had to decide whether to double down on corporate sponsorships, invest more in events, or shift resources toward licensing.

All three were good options. All three would have worked.

The question wasn’t what could work.
It was what deserved commitment right now.

But here’s the hard truth:

Most creative businesses stall out at “busy but fragile.”

They make some sales. They show up nonstop.

But the growth? The consistency? The breathing room?

It never quite clicks into place.

Sound familiar?

That’s not what I want for HobbyScool.

And I’m guessing it’s not what you want for your business either.

And it’s exactly why I decided to document the build instead of just teaching theory.

That’s why I’m sharing the $1M HobbyScool Experiment — publicly and in real time:

Dr. Destini Copp

These aren’t outcomes I’m teaching from a slide deck — they’re outcomes I’m actively building toward inside HobbyScool.

  • Create predictable revenue
  • Build systems that simplify, not stifle
  • Design a business that supports your life (instead of consuming it)
  • Lay the groundwork for something sellable, not just sustainable

This isn’t about chasing 7-figures for the sake of it.

It’s about having a business that’s as intentional as your creativity.

You might be thinking:

“I’m making sales, but everything still feels shaky.”

“I want more consistency, without more hustle.”

“I’m not a business guru — can I really do this?”

✨ “I just want to see what actually works — before I commit.”

That’s exactly why I’m sharing it all, while it’s happening.

The decisions.

The pivots.

The decisions that work… and the ones I wouldn’t make again.

You don’t have to figure it out alone.

Let’s make this the year your creativity and your business actually align!

Why This Matters (For You and Me)

You’ve built something real.

Maybe it’s a course, a membership, or a shop.

You’ve made sales. You’ve shown up. You’ve proven it works.

And still… it feels a little unpredictable.

Some days, you ask yourself:

Can this ever grow into something bigger… something beyond me?

That’s exactly what I’m exploring inside the $1M HobbyScool Experiment.

Not from a place of “expert with all the answers.” But as a creative business owner who’s still in it: building, refining, and documenting what actually works.

Because let’s be honest: most of us are building as we go, without a map.

So I decided to make one.

For me, this Experiment is about:

🕊 Freedom → Building a business that doesn’t rely on me 24/7

🪴 Legacy → Creating something that can grow (and maybe outlast me)

Proof → Showing what’s possible when a creative business is run with systems, not just effort

And for you?

I hope it becomes your behind-the-scenes playbook. One you can apply, adapt, and grow from… with less second-guessing and more confidence in every step.

Not a blueprint to copy — but real context you can use to make better decisions in your own business.

Because clarity isn’t found in theory.

It’s found in the doing.

Why I’m Sharing It All

(Yes, Even the Messy Middle)

There’s no shortage of polished success stories online.

But what we rarely see?

  • The flopped launches.
  • The ideas that didn’t land.
  • The systems that looked good on paper but fell apart in real life.

Those are the moments where the real lessons actually live.

That’s the part I’m documenting — in real time — as I make decisions inside HobbyScool.

Because if you’re building a creative business, you’ve probably had those moments too:

The pivots, the pressure, the “what now?” decisions.

And it helps to see how decisions are made while things are still in motion — not months later in hindsight.

Inside the Experiment, I’m pulling back the curtain on:

✅ Revenue shifts and tradeoffs
✅ Audience growth decisions (what I double down on vs. stop)
✅ Strategy changes and why they happened

And how I’m making decisions every step of the way!

No gatekeeping. No gloss.

Just the real journey of growing a creative brand… shared as it unfolds, so you can learn alongside me.

The Shift Most Creative Businesses Never Make

It’s easy to get caught in the cycle of selling just to keep up: one launch, one promo, one more thing on your to-do list.

But if you want consistency without constantly starting over, you need to build for leverage — not just sales.

Here’s the shift:

💵 Revenue keeps things running today.

🏗 Value builds leverage: systems, assets, and partnerships that compound over time.

That’s what I’m actively building inside HobbyScool — and documenting as it happens.

Because when you start treating your creative work like a long-term asset (instead of just a short-term hustle)... everything changes.

Let’s build something that doesn’t require starting over every year.

And you get front-row access to how those decisions are made.

Not just the polished parts but the messy middle, the big pivots, and the small wins that stack up.

Every update, podcast response, and shared artifact is meant to help you make better decisions in your own business.
