Are you brand new to WordPress? And, if so, are you feeling overwhelmed at the amount of stuff there is to learn?
I totally get it.
I was in your exact spot back in 2010 when I was handed my first WordPress site. I just wanted to create content and build the website, but I kept having to stop to search Google or watch another YouTube video.
In the decade since then though, I’ve learned exactly what stuff all WordPress creators need to know to get started fast.
In this crash course, we’ll walk through every essential WordPress feature and function you need at the beginning, and we’ll do it in less than an hour.
No endless Google searches. No hours of YouTube videos. Just simple, value-packed lessons that will get you working on what actually matters — your business.

About the instructor •
When I was a kid, we had a desktop computer crammed next to the the furnace in a windowless basement room. I loved video games though, so I would spend hours on that computer playing The Sims and Roller Coaster Tycoon.
Unfortunately, our aging computer had trouble playing most games, and my family couldn’t afford better equipment. I was determined to play anyway, and so I would attempt to fix problems myself.
That determination would lead me to spend as many hours troubleshooting as I did actually playing games. I tried every solution I could find.
Eventually, after endless frustration and countless fixes, my persistence (read: stubbornness) would usually pay off, and I’d have a small breakthrough: My game would finally work.
It was in that basement office, struggling to get our outdated computer to cooperate, that I found my love for technology. Despite all the frustration, the excitement and pride I felt every time I solved a tech problem are what lit the fire.
Now, decades later, I’m blending my passion for tech, my experience as a middle school English and math teacher, and my excitement for creative entrepreneurship into my own web education business: Courage & Grow.
If you’re a Creative, and you want help with your website, you’re in the right place.
I can’t wait to work with you!
