A self-paced journey to improve your relationship with work, launch a creative project and design a life that you want to live.

🎯 Work has become the center of life.

It dictates where we live, how we spend our days, when we take time off and who we spend time with. It also leads to a lot of insecurity and "impostor syndrome" that prevents people from getting started on projects that matter to them.

REINVENT is a course designed to help untangle the puzzle of hacking a living in the modern world. It is not a quick fix but instead an exploration of what matters to you, what you are drawn to create, how you want to engage with the world and how to practically make shifts in your life. It will also help you launch a real project during the one-week action challenge.

My vision for this course is to build a community of people that want to reimagine their relationship with work and help others along the way. I will continue adding to this course as I continue to learn through my own journey and respond to what the community is asking for.

Define A "Shift" (An Intention for the course)

The first thing you will do in the course is define a shift, or an overall intention for the course. Some examples of other students include:

Improve overall relationship with work
Take action on a creative project or side hustle
Outline a strategy for making a career shift
Explore an alternative path (freelancing, digital nomad, remote work, etc...)

🎨 Create Something During the "Action Challenge"

Related to your "shift" you will also create something during the third week. Examples from other participants include:

First podcast episode
Public blog or writing
Landing page for in-person event
Website or new service offering

The course content include 25+ examples and Paul is available to help you brainstorm

Course Leader: Paul Millerd

I spent 10 years working in strategy consulting and pursuing the prestigous path, but found I was chasing other people's definition of success. This led to me to transition to carving my own path.

I am building a life around creating for others, helping people from a foundation of generosity and love while embracing the long, hard and slow path of life-long learning and growth.

FAQs

Q

Who is this course for?

You are deeply curious and are open to new ideas and perspectives
You have a number of percolating ideas or projects ready to test, but haven't found the accountability, people or tools to help you move forward
You are okay feeling discomfort and dealing with the "dip" or plateau of learning
You are self-motivated to learn, ask questions and do small experiments
You are intrigued by becoming self-employed, experimenting with side hustles, want to become a remote worker or just want to find a little more sanity in your work life

Q

Why should I take this course?

My superpower is making the complex simple. This, combined with my insatiable curiosity have helped me navigate our modern world. It's the combination of skills that helped me break into the strategy consulting industry after being told it was impossible and what helped me stick around for ten years while shifting interests and focus every two years. It's also what has fueled my journey as a self-employed creative.

Q

Are you just a digital nomad trying to "monetize"?

I've been extremely hesitant to put something like this out in public for the last two years. It wasn't until a couple people convinced me that by creating products and communities I can engage with people in a deeper and more focused way.

Creating this course will be a ton of fun. Seriously, I love experimenting and creating with technology and making sense of ideas. If I make no money from this course, it will be a success because it was a forcing mechanism to synthesize these years of lessons into something that can help people. By purchasing the course, you are voting "yes" and telling me to keep going and to keep focusing on helping people like you thrive.

I don't see this course as a one-time creation. I see it as a container to keep adding to over the next 5 years. Hence, the people that support me early will get the most value and will help me shape the direction of the course & community.

Q

Are you an influencer?

No.

Q

What if I want to pay more/less or pay later?

Sure, I embrace the gift economy and have done tons of experiments since 2017.

I loved creating this and I want you to have it. You can complete the pay-what-feels-right exercise here and define the terms of our engagement!

Q

Money back guarantee?

I am the only one in the course creator universe that embraces the "Chipotle Bowl Guarantee" meaning I'll refund you fully within 30 days and add on additional $10 for your inconvenience to go enjoy a Chipotle Bowl

Hear from past students of Paul's digital courses:

Paul is an excellent guide through the thicket of the emerging workplace. He takes the history of work, its concepts and paradigms and shows you how they've changed and evolved was well as where you could take them in the future.

Ben Mercer, Former Athlete & Solopreneur

This course changed the way I look at my own potential. There's a great balance of lecture information, group support, mentoring, and personal accountability that felt very organic. There's an energy from Paul and the other participants that motivates me to do what I do and to help others do the same.

Erv, ervtravels.com

It was great working with Paul and taking the course - his perspective towards work and life is refreshing and challenged me to rethink my own career. I'd recommend that anyone work with Paul if they're willing to have hard conversations, engage in honest reflection, and really make a change.

Luke Fraser, Solopreneur

Participating in the course with Paul and other participants helped me take action on a dream to launch a conference, which has turned into a reality called the EconoMe conference. It helped me overcome the friction to getting started and helped me take the first step towards making it a reality.

Diania Merriam, Remote Worker & Founder, EconoMe Conference

Reinvent had an excellent balance of self reflection exercises and processes to start taking action towards your goals which allowed me to see results within the 4 weeks. Paul is extremely skillful at providing you the right tools and support but also knows when to step in and push you a little further. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend it to anyone looking to explore those next steps in their Solopreneur journey!

Kyrie, Event Experience Designer

Paul's inclusive and supportive nature pulled the diverse group together and gelled the experience into a meaningful encounter for equals to experience together. Was very impactful.

Jon Buttles, Entrepreneur

Participating in Reinvent has helped me to more confidently embrace the journey I have chosen in charting my own professional path. I would recommend this course to anyone who is feeling lost, boxed in, and disheartened by their present working life.

Luke, Independent Education Consultant

The biggest "take-aways" are a reinforced perspective on the value of the alternative work environment that supports creativity, collaboration, and impact; an importance of asking questions and testing them out in life (rather than theorizing); and pursuing personal passions. I highly recommend the course - it will challenge, inspire, and transform whatever it is you are doing.

Mariya Shiyko, Professor & Joyful Living Coach

The Reinvent course allowed me to get out of my own head and allow me to reflect and clarify my understanding about how I want work to fit into my life as well as the encouragement to explore the non-traditional route.

Paul's natural ability to synthesize complex topics and present it in a simple, digestible, and fun way makes the course a valuable resource in the moment as well as a great reference material to continuously refer back to!
