What a 9-Year-Old Can Teach Us About Grit and Entrepreneurship

In today’s episode of Making Majik, I share one of the most powerful creative stories of my life — a 3-year odyssey co-creating a feature-length audio story with my 9-year-old son. This project stretched him (and me) through resistance, frustration, discipline, magic, patience, and the triumph of doing something really hard. Whether you’re a creator, entrepreneur, parent, educator, storyteller, or someone building something bigger than yourself, this one will hit home. It’s packed with lessons on perseverance, creativity, growth, emotional resilience, and the spiritual journey of making meaningful work in the world. If you’ve ever struggled with resistance… If you’ve ever had a dream feel “too big”… If you’ve ever wanted to give up… This episode is your reminder to keep going. 🔥 BLACK FRIDAY SPECIAL (LIMITED TIME!)
