I’m Done Gatekeeping

This is a short, time-sensitive episode.

If you’ve been listening over the past week and thinking about joining the Doodle Pro® Honor Society, today is your last chance. Doors close at midnight tonight.

In last week’s episode, I shared why I did something I said I’d never do: open my private, alumni-only community to everyone who loves Doodles and wants ongoing, science-based support. Today, I’m explaining why this matters, what you’re actually joining, and why enrollment is closing again.

Inside the Honor Society:

• Monthly live Q&A sessions with me for Doodle-specific training, behavior, grooming, and health questions
• Regular live expert guests, including world-renowned trainers and veterinarians
• A searchable library of 20+ hours of Doodle-focused resources I call “Google for Doodles”
• A private community of Doodle parents who understand the chaos, the sweetness, and the real-life challenges

Upcoming expert sessions:

• Dr. Adam Christman, Chief Veterinary Officer for DVM360, goes live with members tomorrow to talk about partnering with your vet and navigating health misinformation
• Past guests include Jean Donaldson, one of the most respected dog trainers in the world, teaching specifically about Doodles
• Expert guests are scheduled throughout the year, aligned with monthly themes that build on each other

This is a year-long journey, not a quick fix

Each month focuses on a specific season of life with your Doodle, including enrichment, impulse control, grooming, independence, travel, fireworks prep, guest manners, and holiday calm. Skills layer intentionally so you’re supported all year long.

Enrollment details:

• $37/month or $370/year (save 20% and receive a complimentary Doodle Nerd t-shirt)
• Cancel anytime. No long-term commitment on the monthly option
• When enrollment opens again, pricing increases to $47/month

This is gonna be a short one today because I have something time sensitive. I need to tell you today, right now as you're listening to, this is your last day to join the Doodle Pro Academy Honors Society, doors close at midnight. If you listen to last week's episode, you heard me talk about something I'm doing that I said I never do.

Opening the private community to everyone, not just alumni. Today's your last chance to join before doors close again. So let me tell you why this matters and what you'd be joining for the last few years. The Honor Society has been this intimate space for my alumni, and I've been bringing in incredible experts, authors, trainers, veterinarians, groomers, behavior specialists.

Gene Donaldson was here a few weeks ago. The Gene Donaldson, one of the most respected trainers in the world, talking just about doodles. Members [00:01:00] got to be there live, submit questions, learn from her directly. Tomorrow, February 13th, we have Dr. Adam Chrisman coming.

He is the Chief Veterinary Officer for DVM 360. He has over a million TikTok followers, and he's going to join us to talk about being better partners with our vets and combating all the health misinformation online.

And I have experts like this lined up for the entire year. But here's what hit me. I've been keeping this from people who love doodles just as much as my alumni do. People like you. My podcast listeners, people on my email list, folks who have been following me for years, you love your doodles just as fiercely.

You want to keep learning just as much, and I don't wanna keep you out anymore. That's why I opened the doors last week. And today is your last chance to join before they close again. So what are you [00:02:00] actually joining Monthly Live q and a sessions with me where you ask about your doodles specific challenges.

You submit questions ahead of time or join live replays are in the library. Easy peasy. Regular live expert guests like Gene Donaldson last month, like Dr. Chrisman tomorrow, like the incredible lineup I have throughout this year, a searchable library of over 20 hours and growing of doodle specific resources covering training, behavior, grooming, and health.

I call it Google for doodles, searchable by topics so you can find what you need when you need it, and the most popular. A private community of doodle parents who love their dogs just as fiercely as you do, who understand who celebrate your wins and support you through the hard stuff. And we have a plan for the entire year.[00:03:00]

Every month has a theme that builds on the last one. Right now, in February, we're focused on enrichment and deepening your bond. March. We're tackling spring energy and impulse control. April is Zen Games. Playing your way to peace May is separation and self-care. As we head into summer, June starts 4th of July, prep early way before those fireworks.

July is freedom without the freakouts road trips, guests backyard chaos. August, we rebuild structure When school routine shift. September we reinforce independence. October we prep for guests, doorbells, and spooky season calm. November. We work on staying grounded through the holiday chaos. December. We bring it all together for peaceful holidays every month, building on the last with expert guests matched to what we're working on.

This is a year long journey of understanding and supporting your doodle better, not a quick fix, ongoing [00:04:00] support. And right now. It's just $37 a month or three 70 for the year, which saves you 20% and gets you our popular complimentary doodle nerd t-shirt. You can cancel anytime, no long-term commitment. If you go monthly, if you realize it's not the right fit, cancel and keep access through your paid period.

Next time I open enrollment. Which won't be at least for a few months. The price will go up the next time doors open. So if you've been thinking about it, if you've been on the fence, this is the time. This is the time. I told you last week that I said I'd never open this to the public. That I loved my intimate alumni community and I wanted to protect that.

Working with just the students that I had already taught and worked with, and I do, I still do. [00:05:00] I love hard on my community members. I show up, I care. I'm invested in every single member's success, but I realized. I was keeping out people who deserve this just as much.

People who love their doodles, who want to keep learning, who want expert guidance and community support that fits their schedule. If that's you, I don't wanna keep you out anymore. Okay. Tomorrow, Dr. Chrisman goes live with members. If you want to be there, you need to join today. But honestly, tomorrow's session is just one piece of what you're joining.

You are joining a year long community, ongoing expert access, a place where you're never alone figuring out your doodle. That's what this is. And if you love your doodle and you want that kind of support, you belong here. So here's what to do. Go to the doodle [00:06:00] pro.com/honor society. Read through everything.

Look at the testimonials, see what's included for the full year, and if it feels right, join us before midnight tonight or email me at corrine@thedoodlepro.com if you have questions. I love my private communities members. I show up for them, and if you join, I'll show up for you too. Doors close at midnight.

I don't know when I'll open them again, but if you love your doodle and you want ongoing support from experts in a community that truly gets it, don't let me keep you out. Join us. I can't wait to support you and your doodle all year long.
