I almost didn't start this podcast. I postponed it twice in 2020 because I was terrified no one would listen. Or worse, that they'd listen and hate it. But since then, that scary decision has led to over 1 million downloads, four podcasts, and over 8 million in online sales.

In this episode, I'm sitting in a podcast studio in LA after interviewing one of the biggest names in online marketing, and I'm thinking about how none of this would exist if I hadn't been willing to suck at something first. I'm also announcing that I changed the podcast name twice in 2023 because I've realized something crucial: we can't win without failing first.
