Default outline won't number after hitting return

I've set up the document per Shauna Kelly's instructions, but can't figure
out why it won't continue to number the outline. It'll give me Heading 1,
but when I hit return it goes back to "normal". What in the world am I doing
wrong?

You would need to modify the Heading 1 style so that it is followed by
Heading 1 style (though that is not what would normally be wanted as a
heading is normally followed by some text.

If you switch to Outline view, then a Heading 1 will be followed by Heading
1.
