- Keeping YouTube Fun [S4E16]
Send a text message to the show!
Heather has spend the past week creating a video that now qualifies as a feature-length documentary and has reignited her passion for YouTube while also reframing how she approaches her channel and creative process.
Meanwhile, my analytics have taken a nose-dive since I left my job and that panic has cast a shadow over what I'm working on. We decided this would be a good time to sit down and dissect where we're at with our channels and how we can approach keeping the spark of fun alive while being creators on YouTube.

1 hr 9 min - My New Favorite YouTube Channel [S4E14]
Send a text message to the show!
Over the past few months I’ve gone from being a casual fan to admittedly obsessed with Joel Haver’s YouTube channel. Not only is his work incredible, but the way he has been uniquely equipped to handle some of the fastest YouTube growth I’ve ever seen is fascinating.
Even though our content is very different, I feel like I can see a lot of my own ideals and philosophies in Joel’s channel and it’s super refreshing to see someone find success while staying true to themselves and their artistic core.

1 hr 2 min - Creating Your Online Course from Start to Finish [S4E13]
Send a text message to the show!
Even though I was a teacher for 11 years and fancied myself pretty darn good at being able to communicate ideas, I was way out of my element when stepping into the world of online courses.
Fortunately my awesome wife Heather has an encyclopedic knowledge of all things online course-related and she was able to guide me through the process.
This week we wanted to take some time and explain how to create your first online course from start to finish, because there’s a lot more to it than just making a good course, of course.

1 hr 14 min - The First Week of Freedom (Secret Series Finale)
Send a text message to the show!
It's been just over a week since I left my job and began working for myself as a full time content creator, and honestly, I've never been happier. I'd explain it here, but words literally cannot describe how it feels.
Fortunately Heather made sure that we took some time to break it down and reflect on this transition.

Send a text message to the show!
In the midst of transitioning from my teaching job, I'ver also been working to launch my first course. In what might have been one of the busiest and most stressful weeks of my life, I took the first step in announcing the course and trying to navigate the waters of selling a product without feeling "salesey" and gross.
Heather guided me through the whole process, which ended up being incredible. This episode breaks everything down and also covers the time management nightmare of having one foot in two different worlds as you move to a new career path.
