About this challenge
What are you most passionate about? Why do people follow you, read your stories, or want to hear what you have to say?
Whether it's at-home sustainability hacks, recipe development, or being the authority on all things ice hockey, tell us what brings you true fulfillment and how you could monetize that passion in a perfect world.
If you're a fitness expert, maybe your membership business includes access to an exclusive 25-day workout program and some of your favorite workout bands. If you're more of a home cook, maybe your membership comes in the form of a weekly recipe sent directly to your followers' inboxes. Whatever it may be, dream big and tell us why people should support your passion. We're partnering with Memberful for this Challenge—a tool that allows creators, like you, to earn from your audiences through membership software.
Learn more about how Memberful can help you create a reliable, recurring revenue through membership and enter the Members-Only Challenge to make it a reality!

Sometimes the simplest challenges are the deepest and most revealing. For this challenge we asked you to “unravel the mysteries, joys, and challenges of love through the power of personal storytelling” — we all love, we all feel we know what it means to love. Yet this challenge offered a reminder of the infinite shapes of human connection, and what power love has over us, even in the face of struggle and pain.
