Jonny Miller created Nervous System Mastery, a five-week cohort-based course that teaches evidence-backed protocols to cultivate calm, build resilience, and increase aliveness in 45 days. It just wrapped up its sixth cohort in the last three years. Jonny has served nearly 1,000 students in those six cohorts and earned more than $800,000.

Here’s the best part – Jonny doesn’t have a massive audience. When he launched Nervous System Mastery, he had a couple thousand followers on Twitter and a small email list. This is the magic of a well-designed Signature Product – and Jonny is the perfect example.

In this episode, we get into the weeds about how he’s grown NSM – what’s worked well, what hasn’t, and how he’s found himself on large podcasts with people like Lenny Rachitsky, Ali Abdaal, Chris Williamson, and more.
