FOLLOW A MEMBER MARATHON!!!
We have all loved experimenting and posting in our feed since it launched! 
I have noticed that many members have been hesitant to join in & follow each other and fellow listeners. The feed is intended to be a place of sharing, connection building and encouragement. I follow many people whom I have never chatted with & for those of you who are comfortable with that, I want to invite you to join the..... drum roll please..........
Follow a Member Marathon!
What is the follow a member marathon?
A 1 week event in which we encourage members & listeners to follow each other! Specifically, if you look at your follow list and you see that you primarily follow listeners, go find 26 members to follow!
26 miles in a marathon & 26 members in the follow a member marathon!
How do you find people to follow?
- Forum
- Group supports
- My impact contact list
- Reposts on your feed
When does this start?
RIGHT NOW!
If you participate, please share the names of the 26 members you have followed in this thread! When you post write -
"i am honored to now be following....and tag their names"
Once completed, you will earn the "Marathon Badge!"
Anyone, who goes above and beyond the marathon challenge (by listing 26 or more new ppl they are following), will be eligible to earn 1 cheer for every extra person they follow!
So happy to be following:

@alexlove nice job! :)
I've already encouraged members to start using their feed and have just begun to follow some really insightful and motivational ones so far. So glad for everyone who's trying to use their feed positively. Will start to browse more followers that I feel have used the feed in a way that benefits themselves or others. I don't think I'll put an official list up but as of right now @TabbyPhoenix and @Celaeno <3 Keep on keeping on, you guys are awesome.
@heartsNcupcakes, you're too kind, if such a thing exists ^^ Thank you!
*hugs*
To the wonderful members below, whom I have thoroughly enjoyed meeting/getting to know over my first month on 7 Cups of Tea, I now have the honor of following your feeds to feel inspired, or somber, or even giggly from your posts. Thank you for sharing!
Always,
