Episode 9: The Client Who Ghosted Me

In this solo episode of Thoughts Between Shots, I share one of the most painful (and hilarious, in hindsight) lessons from my early days as a business owner steeped in hustle culture.Picture this: San Francisco. A viral LinkedIn post. A dream client named “CJ.” A Tesla. And a deal ... that vanished overnight.What followed was heartbreak, humiliation, and one of the most valuable lessons of my entrepreneurial life: always have a contract.Along the way, I also break down the art of storytelling — from using descriptive language that pulls people into your scene to vocal variety that makes your delivery unforgettable.✨ What you’ll learn:Why contracts aren’t optional (even with dream clients)How to add descriptive detail that hooks your audienceWhy vocal variety matters more than the actual words you sayA business failure that turned into my storytelling goldAnd yes, I might throw a little shade at Tesla drivers. 🚗⚡😉
