My Nightmare Experience Hiring Business Coaches (Don't Make the Same Mistake!)
February 04, 2016 06:00 - 23 minutes - 17.1 MBThis podcast was written ages ago, during a time in which I felt really disenfranchised with ‘coaching’ online business. I let it sit. Let it simmer. And feel that now’s the time to publish it. It might seem a bit odd to have written an article about coaching, especially as I had just made the decision to wind down my own coaching work. (I’ve since changed my mind). Click here to read the full article.
Why Money Can't Be the Goal of Your Business
January 28, 2016 06:30 - 15 minutes - 11.1 MBYes. I’m serious. Look, I want to be as successful as anybody else. One of the things that I’ve gleaned from my e-mentors like Casey Neistat and Bobby Hundreds is that you can’t focus on money. I know it’s maddening when people tell you to just ‘make great art’ and the money will come. Not everybody can be Andy Weir, writing blog posts for free and self-publishing a book on Amazon for $1 because they wouldn’t let him sell it for free.
