Hey Friends!
I'm thrilled to announce the launch of my weekly newsletter, and wanted to say thank you to everyone that’s signed up for Nostalgia Nation!
Before I continue here’s a photo of my Masters of The Universe lunchbox, which is one of my oldest personal items that I’ve had since childhood. They just don’t make lunch boxes like this anymore, right?!
1. Why a newsletter, why now?
First and foremost, this newsletter is a heartfelt thank-you to my most loyal followers. It's my way of rewarding you with highly curated, nostalgic content from around the world that you won't find anywhere else. Each edition will be packed with stories, images, and memories that will take you on a journey back in time, offering a unique and personal touch to the content I post and that you love.
One of the frustrations I share with my fellow creators is the way social media platforms control who sees our posts. Often, my updates only reach a fraction of you, dictated by ever-changing algorithms. Ain’t nobody got time for that!!
So by subscribing to my newsletter, you ensure that you never miss out on my latest posts, thoughts, curated content, and exclusive Live sessions, collaborative projects, and events I’m creating for my community of discerning nostalgists. You'll receive it directly in your inbox, bypassing the filters of social media platforms.
Moreover, I’m highly involved and love my fellow content creators and nostalgia supporting brands, and I've found that tagging other brands or accounts on social media often comes with constraints and limitations by the platform. My newsletter frees me from those restrictions, allowing me to be far more authentic with my content - I can share my favorite brands, collaborations, and shout-outs without any limitations of the paywall Big Brother bots gatekeeping all day long!
Ok, deep breath,,, here’s a photo of Leo on the set of Critters
2. What kind of community are you looking to build here?
This newsletter is also about building a tighter, more engaged community. It's a space where we can connect more deeply, share ideas, and support each other. I want to foster a sense of belonging and create a community that feels more personal and connected.
By subscribing, you're not just signing up for emails; you're joining a closer circle where your voice matters, and your engagement is valued beyond the 15-to-90 seconds of reels.
Thank you for your continuous support across all of my channels. If you believe nostalgia matters like I do, which I know you do, please take a moment to share my profile with someone you care about. Spread the nostalgic cheer!
Ps. After subscribing please check your folder if you have gmail, as newsletters typically get dumped in social or promotional folders… worse, maybe spam! Please slide my content into your inbox to make sure you see it weekly!
As always, STAY RAD!!
