    Are your members leaving your program despite loving your content? The real issue isn’t your program—it’s their progress. When members don’t see results, they lose motivation and quit, impacting your retention, revenue, and growth.

    That’s why Shana developed the psychology-backed Progress Wheel framework. It’s designed to keep your members motivated, help them make steady progress, and ensure they stay engaged for the long haul—all while driving better retention and results.

    In this guide, Shana will reveal why progress, not just engagement, is the key to membership success and break down the psychology behind every step of the Progress Wheel.
