SPI 934: 18 Years Since Being Let Go

from The Smart Passive Income Online Business and Blogging Podcast

#934 It's been eighteen years since I got fired from my architecture job and started my entrepreneurship journey. That one moment led to something completely unexpected! You see, when you put yourself out there and share your story, you never know who's listening on the other end. But where do you start? Listening in on today's episode to get a leg up would help! I'll first share the mindset shift I had when I turned 40. This is a big one because it freed me up to go all-in on my Pokémon content when people were making fun of me. Billions of views later, I never want to go back to trying to please everyone. I'll also discuss the importance of live-streaming and in-person events for building relatability, how I turn failures into wins, how I became a New York Times bestselling author, and why I study K-pop groups for next-level marketing ideas. Thank you for tuning in!
