Ever hovered over the send button asking yourself, “Am I annoying my list?”

In this episode of Launch Confidential, we’re talking about the quiet anxiety so many coaches carry around email marketing: the fear of being “too much,” annoying your list, or losing your audience just by showing up in their inbox.

Because when that anxiety kicks in, what usually happens isn’t restraint - it’s silence. And silence cools your audience, stretches out your sales cycle, and makes every launch feel heavier than it should.

If you find yourself second-guessing follow-ups, spacing emails way farther apart than you know you should, or holding back because of that one nasty “please remove me” that still lives rent-free in your brain… this conversation is for you.

01:41 - The real reason people unsubscribe (and why it’s not what you think)

03:25 – The fear loop that teaches your list to tune you out

05:52 - Why unsubscribes are actually doing you a favor

06:28 - The fastest way to become forgettable in someone’s inbox

07:54 - The subject line habit quietly killing your open rates

09:03 - Why “safe” emails never get opened

10:00 - The underused inbox feature that changes open rates

12:55 - How to tell if you’re emailing too much — or not enough

14:38 - The kind of emails people actually want to read

16:13 - A sustainable email cadence that doesn’t burn you out

19:03 - The reframe that makes emailing feel lighter instantly
