#22 Still Broke? This Is What You're Doing Wrong (Why Most Entrepreneurs Fail)

from The Alpha Renaissance · host Taq Freeman

Most people say they want to win — but they're making the same mistakes that keep them stuck. Jeff Osuji didn't come from money, didn't have a technical background, and still built three million dollar businesses. In this episode, he gets brutally honest about what separates the entrepreneurs who make it from the ones who don't — from building before talking to your customer, to hiring the wrong people, to expecting your network to carry you. If you've been grinding with nothing to show for it, this conversation will tell you exactly why.We get into AI's takeover of the workforce, the experience economy, Nigerian immigrant hustle, raising kids in a screen-obsessed world, and why human connection is still the one edge that can't be automated. Disclaimer:The views expressed by me and all guests are personal opinions and do not constitute Financial, Medical, or Legal advice.#Entrepreneurship #WhyEntrepreneursFail #StillBroke #BlackEntrepreneurs #NigerianAmerican #StartupLife #AIandBusiness #EventIndustry #ExperienceEconomy #Voir #Brotherhood #Masculinity #SelfImprovement #BusinessMindset #LeadershipDevelopment #WorkEthic #ImmigrantMindset #ChicagoBusiness #ScalingABusiness #MindsetMatters #AItools #FutureOfWork #SmallBusiness #Fatherhood #BlackExcellence #EventOrganizers #MentalToughness #LegacyBuilding
