From humble beginnings as an assistant to the artist Justin Bua, to specializing in unique portrayals of pandas, to eventually being commissioned for the creation of corporate murals and managing a portfolio of diverse talent, Cookie stayed true to his art form throughout. The Street Art Loft has become a well-respected art co., with Michael Cook exemplary of the dividends paid by hard work and repetition. This episode has endless entrepreneurial pointers and huge insight into the art industry.

If you follow this podcast that we endearingly refer to as the 5 O’clock Hustle, you’re either pursuing your passion project or, at the least, coming to realize how important it is to have one. 9 to 5 is what you need and the rest is what you can’t live without. And while that sounds well and good, being in this boat means you’re going to come up against some strong currents. Acknowledging the challenge is the first step.

To that, Dre and Chris take some extra time in this episode of 5OH to speak on the hills and hurdles of up-and-coming entrepreneurs; and how they persevere. As Maya Angelou brilliantly stated, “You may encounter many defeats, but you must not be defeated. In fact, it may be necessary to encounter the defeats, so you can know who you are, what you can rise from, how you can still come out of it.” 

Special Announcement:

Jay Lieberman is a realtor.  Oh and he’s a lawyer, founder of a charity, an author; he owns a few pizza restaurants and he’s a fellow podcaster.  In summary, Jay is a busy man.  Thankfully for us, he set some time aside to be the first guest on our humble little podcast and what a great guest he was.

I first came across Jay’s work when searching for local podcasters.  In Jay’s Conejo Valley Advice Givers Podcast, he interviews local businesses who share wonderful stories and insights about how and why their businesses were created and their process.  It’s highly inspirational and I suggest you add it to your playlist, especially if you live in or near the Conejo Valley.

Jay has also founded a local charity called the Conejo Valley Impact Club.  If you’re from the area please take a minute and check out their website.  Most recently, they raised $5,200 with 50 founding member sign ups!  They are doing great things over there and you’ll hear more about it on the podcast, so take a listen!

The fact of the matter is Jay is a hustler.  He has realized his aspirations with action and we can all learn from him.  It was a pleasure having him on and I hope you get as much out of the conversation as Dre and I did.
