How I Became a Substack Bestseller and How You Can Grow Too

When I first started on Substack a little more than a year ago, I wasn’t entirely sure where it would lead. I just knew I wanted to create a space where I could connect with Catholic women in a meaningful way—offering encouragement, faith-filled reflections, and practical support for everyday life.

But how do you actually grow on Substack? How do you reach more of the right readers—the ones who will truly connect with your message?

I recently joined Substack growth expert

Philip Hofmacher

, co-founder of Write • Build • Scale, to talk about exactly that! In this conversation, we discuss:

✅ How I got started and what I’ve learned along the way
✅ Best ways to attract and engage your ideal audience
✅ Simple strategies for growing your Substack without feeling overwhelmed

SPOILER ALERT: It’s not about overnight success!

Whether you’re just starting out or looking for ways to expand your reach, I think you’ll find this conversation both insightful and encouraging.
