​​We want ​EVERYONE who is interested in personal and professional growth and development to become part of our community. ​Our long term vision is not only to let people write articles and ​build online communities, but to create local in person groups in each city ​where people can connect, build relationships, and strategize together about how to move to the next level.

Our mission is to help each other grow in our personal and professional lives, and we want to be ​THE place for people to connect and share what they've learned.

We have a local chapter already in Springfield, IL which meets over breakfast and is focused on helping small business owners network and grow their business, and would like to replicate that to other cities and other interest groups. If you have leadership experience and would like to help create a local chapter, please let us know.

Our History

The Personal Growth Channel began in May 2015 as the personal blog of Don Smith. A father of five with ​decades of experience serving in leadership roles, Smith developed a loyal following as he wrote about lessons he had learned. With a vision of building a community of people who would work together to improve each other's lives, he began sharing that mission with others, and soon, our community was born.

Today, that community touches nearly every continent on the planet. We hope to talk to you soon!
