WHO I AM:

I got my entrepreneurial start in the world of real estate investing around 2011. I flipped hundreds of houses and purchased dozens of rental properties. I then started a coaching business and helped hundreds of clients buy their first rental properties. After 5 years of coaching investors, I fell in love with the coaching and education industry and started helping clients start coaching and consulting businesses of their own. 

I live in Colorado with my wife and two daughters. I spend most of my time with my family, working on my business, and doing fun stuff like yoga, kickboxing, parkour, and frisbee golf. I love to play video games (Counterstrike mainly), drink margaritas, smoke a good cigar, drink delicious coffee, and goof off with my friends.

Learning how to write a book is hard, especially if it's your first time. 

After writing 3 books and applying writing advice from guys like Stephen King, I've discovered 8 writing tips that will make your first book a lot easier.

Business pivots are great for your happiness, and deadly for your bank account.

There's only one way to end pivoting for good (while still getting to do what you want).

Starting a personal brand is quickly becoming the go-to strategy for anyone who wants to succeed in the creator economy.

One big reason is that it makes your business pivot proof.

If you hate your job and want to do something meaningful and profitable, the creator economy is the best opportunity you have right now 

(and it's going to get harder to capitalize on every day you wait).

Most people that have a job can't just quit and go all in on this, they need a gradual plan to ease into building a creator business.

In this video I share a foolproof method for (eventually) quitting your 9 to 5 and starting a profitable and fun creator business.

Figuring out your niche is one of the most challenging decisions for coaches and creators. It turns out, we've been overcomplicating it.

There's only one part of your business that must have a niche.
