We have been covering a series about how to Recession-Proof your life.

In this episode I talk with my friend Eric about how to recession-proof your job

• How do you introduce yourself? "I am a..."

• Do you tie your identity to your job?

• How to #Thrive at your job:

• Make yourself valuable.

• Develop relationships.

• Be Genuine.

• Go to work every day as if it was your first day.

Side hustles and cultivating an entrepreneurial mindset.

"You talk about the recession. The people that are using our services, they are not worried about the recession. The recession is not going to impact them." - Eric

Eric created a high end lawn care business, TurfBrothas757.com (website coming soon).

They make lawns look like 1/4" golf course grass.

What drives an entrepreneurial mindset?

• Having a need and thinking "I wonder if I could do that."

• Utilizing your surplus and trading/selling your surplus.

Note that the audio is a little distorted in this episode. One of the challenges of including new voices with people who are not professional podcast guests, is that you make due with the tech that you have over Zoom (the folk's don't always have pro mics). The EQ is kind of "wonky". I cleaned it up as best as I could. It was still great info to go ahead and publish rather than doing it all over again.
