Whether you are an athlete looking to make money on the side for supplements and training or a rookie coach in the "side hustle" phase of their coaching, money is an obvious obstacle and stress in your life if it isn't where you want it to be. I went from making great money working 9 months out of the year living on Long Island for free to paying for a 20k plus graduate degree and merely surviving for a couple of years as I cut my teeth in the online media and coaching world as an assistant along with going back to school. I had to maximize my time and skills and I figured it out and I want to share with you those keys in this episode.

Most people won't turn their side hustle into a full-fledged company with goals of 7 figures like I aspire to one day. You want to make money to fuel your true craft and what you want to be elite at and this episode will give you those keys you can use TODAY in 2020. Topics include:

- Rappflex in 2018 as a Freelance Company

- The Importance of Setting Up an LLC

- How My Obsession Grew with Online Marketing

- The Keys to a Successful Side Hustle in 2020

- The Future of Rappflex Media Group

A tale as old as time... the story of the round peg and the square hole. Trying to fit these two items together is impossible and they just aren't meant for each other. However, if that round peg is... made of jello for instance... then it would fit into that square hole easier (try to ignore the sexual innuendo) but it would be a mess and that round peg is some gelatinous pile of gunk on the other side.

I don't want you to be the gunk. Or be afraid to find your round hole in your relationships or business. Today's episode is all about what rejection is, why we struggle with it so much, and what we can do to overcome it. I'll explain more in detail the above analogy as well. Topics include:

- What is Rejection

- Common Struggles with Rejection

- Understanding Other's Opinions

- My Experience with Rejection

- 5 Ways to Overcome Rejection

- 1 Mindset Shift for Rejection
