The number one thing listeners of the pod ask me for is to flip the script and let someone interview me. I’ve historically been reluctant to do it because it feels little self aggrandizing or whatever the term is. But you gotta give the people what they want.

On this episode my friend Mike Wu, founder of Hire Frame, interviews me on my transition to full time content creation. We talk about

* How I sold a company as CFO, and then fired myself immediately

* Why having supportive partners in any entrepreneurial endeavor is the real key to success

* How I came up with the idea for my second newsletter Looking for Leverage.

Mike’s a gracious host and shout out to him for letting me share this with my audience.
