I'm currently studying Revenue Operations and recently completed the HubSpot Academy RevOps Certification. It was a basic starting point, I’m looking for something more practical and implementation-focused.

• Revenue Wizards
• RevOps Training (RevOps Audit course)
• Pavilion
• RevOps Co-op / RevOps Scoop
• RevOps Academy by RevOps Careers

I’ve been researching a few options and would love to hear from anyone who has experience with them:

Edit: Recommended RevOps Co-op and RevOps Training; additionally the best way is to implement!

I’ve been thinking less about tools and more about the repeatable “skills” people use during HubSpot implementations.

For those of you who implement HubSpot regularly, what kinds of skills, frameworks, or repeatable methods have you built for yourself?

For example, do you have specific ways of handling things like:

• ICP definition
• lead qualification
• lifecycle stages
• sales process mapping
• SLAs between teams
• sales-to-operations handoff
• pipeline design
• reporting/KPI planning
• CRM data architecture

I’m curious whether you’ve created your own implementation playbooks, checklists, templates, or discovery frameworks that help you consistently get to a good outcome.

Edit: I was refering to Claude Skills; the / skill that you can input to make things work, What skills have ended up being the most useful in real projects?

A few days ago I read this paper on cannabis withdrawal and psychosis: https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC7617269/

A lot of what it described felt very familiar to me, and it made me reflect on two episodes I had — one in February 2020 and another in December 2021.

At this time, I was also reading a lot in meditation communities. I had seen people mention that meditation can sometimes trigger psychosis in vulnerable people. I had also read that abrupt cannabis withdrawal could do something similar.

What stood out to me is that during both episodes, I was doing both at the same time: abruptly quitting cannabis and meditating intensely.

For context, I had been a heavy cannabis user for around three years, smoking at least twice a day since September of 2017. In 2020 I decided to quit because my short-term memory felt worse, and I realized I couldn’t enjoy normal life without being high.

I quit suddenly and started meditating about an hour a day to help myself stay off weed.

First episode (2020)

The first episode was milder, but looking back it still clearly changed my thinking and behavior. It lasted around 3–4 months.

Symptoms I remember:

• severe sleep disturbance
• disturbing dreams
• early morning waking
• agitation and excessive activity
• disorganized behavior
• feeling like I had a special authority to “fix” people or tell them what was wrong with them
• delusions of influence
• inflated sense of importance

One of the hardest parts was how it affected my relationships. I argued with friends a lot because I genuinely felt like I understood things they didn’t, and that I needed to correct them.

For around four months I ended up isolated from them. Later I reconciled and apologized, because once I came down from that state, I could see how different I had been acting.

By July 2020, I started smoking again.

Second episode (December 2021)

At the end of 2021, I quit cannabis again.

And I repeated almost the exact same pattern: abrupt cessation + daily meditation.

This second episode felt stronger and more obvious. It also lasted around 3–4 months.

The symptoms were closer to what the paper described:

• agitated activity
• excessive energy
• reduced need for sleep
• waking up around 4:00 a.m.
• multiple goals and projects at once, without real progress
• poor appetite for a few days
• widespread delusional thinking
• delusions of influence
• grandiose ideas
• increased self-esteem

At the time I saw a psychologist, but I don’t think the psychotic features were very visible from the outside. My speech was still coherent enough that I could sound “normal,” even though internally my thinking was becoming increasingly distorted.

Eventually, after a few months, I came back down to earth.

That’s the best way I can describe it — my head had been way up in the sky.

During that period I became deeply absorbed in conspiracy theories, synchronicity, and spiritual ideas. Those things seemed to fit perfectly into the worldview I had while I was in that state.

What still stands out to me

One thing that’s hard to admit is that part of that mental state felt incredible.

I felt almost superhuman.

I had:

• almost no fear
• tons of energy
• grandiosity
• high self-confidence
• very little concern for consequences

Honestly, at times it felt like the best I had ever felt. But it also damaged my judgment, my relationships, and how other people saw me.

For a long time from 2021 to 2026 I thought meditation alone had caused it, since I was meditating an hour a day during both periods. That it was the positive effects of meditating..

Now, after reading more about cannabis withdrawal psychosis, my personal conclusion is different:

I think abrupt cannabis cessation played a major role, and meditation may have intensified or reinforced the altered mental state.

I’m not saying this is true for everyone. This is just my personal experience.

I also know several people who, after abruptly stopping heavy cannabis use, went through things like paranoia, hallucinations, or persecutory delusions.

I wanted to share this here because reading that paper helped me make sense of experiences that confused me for years.

Has anyone else here had psychotic symptoms after quitting cannabis — especially if meditation, spirituality, or sleep disruption were also involved?

The question is how much to rely on WhatsApp Flows vs a pure LLM conversation flow.

My current thinking is a hybrid approach:

First contact + menus → hardcoded WhatsApp CTA / List Message. Zero tokens, instant response.

Booking appointments → WhatsApp Flow with native calendar picker and dropdowns. Data lands clean in n8n → booking software + HubSpot Contact. Zero LLM calls.

Quote generation → Dynamic WhatsApp Flow that calls an n8n endpoint mid-session, pulls live pricing from QuickBooks, patient selects services via checkboxes, n8n calculates and responds. Still zero tokens.

Free questions / FAQs → LLM + RAG. Only here does the token cost kick in.

Support tickets → Flow collects structured complaint, LLM classifies it, n8n creates a HubSpot ticket and notifies staff.

What I'm unsure about:

1. Has anyone actually built dynamic WhatsApp Flows that call a live backend mid-session? How reliable is it in production?
2. Is the patient experience with Flows actually better than a well-prompted conversational LLM? Or does the structured form feel rigid compared to just typing naturally?
3. For clinics specifically — do patients in LATAM actually complete multi-screen Forms or do they drop off and just type?
4. Any gotchas with the n8n → HubSpot data pipeline when Flow payloads come in? Especially for contact deduplication.
